- What it does: Lists every single mandatory battle’s AI, levels, movesets, items, and EVs.
- Why you need it: In vanilla HGSS, Falkner has a Level 9 Pidgey and a Level 13 Pidgeotto. In Sacred Gold, Falkner has a Level 10 Taillow (Guts/Flame Orb), a Level 10 Spearow, and a Level 14 Pidgeotto holding a Sharp Beak with U-turn. If you walk in with a Chikorita, you will lose.
- Pro tip: Look at the "EV Spread" column. Drayano gives boss Pokémon competitive EVs (e.g., 252 Attack / 252 Speed). You cannot out-speed them with neutral nature Pokémon.
Step 1: Acquire the Patch File
- Go to the official GBAtemp.net thread for "Pokémon Sacred Gold / Storm Silver" (Drayano’s official release hub).
- Look for the latest version (as of 2026, version 1.1 or 2.0 depending on the upload).
- Download the

- The official documentation folder (
.html files or .txt).
