Proto:Pokémon Emerald/Debug Menu

This is a sub-page of Proto:Pokémon Emerald.

This article is a work in progress.
...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

...But what does it mean?
This game has text or audio that needs to be translated. If you are fluent with this language, please read our translation guidelines and then submit a translation!

To do:
Finish translating and confirming the function (or lack thereof) of features.

For the sake of clarity, many of the names for options are taken from the English Ruby and Sapphire Debugs. The main exception to this is some developer names which were spelled incorrectly by the localizers.

Debug Menu Overview

By pressing R and Start during gameplay, the debug menu will open. There are 8 pages to the debug menu, with many of the options having submenus. Some of the features are the same as the debug menus of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire and FireRed and LeafGreen. However, most of them have been moved around in some way, and some of them no longer function.
WARNING! Some of the options in this menu cause major changes to your save file, and a few save the game without warning. It is highly reccommended to back up the save file you are using if you care about it.

BOXPW

Brings up a screen where you can create passwords for the custom box designs that you can get from the man in Rustboro City. Is pretty much an in-game version of Pokéwiki's Secret Code Generator. https://www.pokewiki.de/Spezial:Geheimcode-Generator?uselang=en
Unfortunately, though the man accepts the passwords, the wallpaper does not actually appear in the PC. Futher research is needed.
At the top, there are drawings of each button along with a note on what they do.
Up/Down and Left/Right navigate through the menu. A increases the numbers while B decreases. Start exits the menu, and Select allows you to copy the password into the entry box once it is generated.
The next two rows allow you to pick the colors you want. Below that, there are two options for design choices. CHAR allows you to pick what graphic is present in the pattern, and 'SCRN selects the layout of the pattern. (These two are in the opposite order on the Pokéwiki Code Generator.)
Next up is the ID. It defaults to your Trainer ID, but is able to be modified if you want to generate codes for someone else. The bottom translates to "Decision." When hitting A on this, the password will pop up. At this point if you hit Select, the password will automatically be copied into the entry screen when you talk to the man in Rustboro, saving you the hassle of having to enter the code in yourself.

Trainer
