Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Distant Connection

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Distant Connection by runway55

A story that has a small possibility of being expanded on, I present to you my first ever hack. This is a story of a human turned Pokemon found on the beach by a team. While that team is out of town helping him get back to his world, the human stays back in town and another Pokemon begins to see the human as someone they can bond with.

This hack has no dungeons and is roughly 13-18 minutes, varies based on how fast of a reader you are.

Screenshots and patch are in the .zip file, and the patch is for the US version.

PMD: Fragments

Editor's Note: I really need to make a master list of artists' commission sheets. - Reddit link - Twitter link

Ass Cucumber's guide on important custom background

I made a document that explains how to import custom backgrounds into Skytemple. It's not that hard but I've noticed a lot of newbies on here who really struggle with it. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wzQCmqQ51cHBIcn7EVUqHmLl0Wj26OdwdI855O5o_qw/edit?usp=sharing

Editor's Note: I used another method that should allow more complex backgrounds with custom resolutions to be imported in SkyTemple. I'll write a guide on how to use it (spoiler: it's harder)

A patch was made to fix the stats display patch.
