About Pokemon Thief Ruby / Sapphire GBA ROM
Pokémon Thief Ruby / Sapphire changes the original Ruby and Sapphire story by letting you steal Pokémon from trainers. ShantyTown created this completed GBA hack, version 1.0, using Ruby and Sapphire as its base. Poké Balls, Great Balls and Ultra Balls become Thief Balls, Robber Balls and Burglar Balls for capturing opponents' Pokémon. Stealing is disabled in Double Battles. Wild Pokémon cannot be captured, and your own Pokémon do not gain experience, making trainer theft central to progress.
What's in it
- Replaces Poké Balls, Great Balls and Ultra Balls with Thief Balls, Robber Balls and Burglar Balls.
- Lets you capture trainers' Pokémon with those balls.
- Disables stealing in Double Battles.
- Prevents catching wild Pokémon.
