Telard and sponee

first, let me say I'm enjoying every minute of this hack, it's really unique.
I didn't get any serious bugs, only these two-
in comet cave, I never saw any Telard. when I exited the cave, a guy came and said: oh so you battled a telard, etc, but there was no such battle. I had a repel on. so I reloaded the game to an earlier save and tried again, without a repel, explored the cave looking for some event pokemon- there was nothing there. will this crash my game later/ make me stuck?
also, sponee doesn't evolve with a water stone, I tried both male & female. is there another condition, like a certain level or knowing a cetain move?

For Terlard, there used to be a bug where losing to Terlard would crash your game but, in the most recent patch when they fixed it, the event stopped working. If you go back to the exit to Comet Cave, you should see Terlard sitting above the cave door.

For Sponee, I assume you referenced the wiki to see that it is supposed to evolve with a water stone. The wiki is not edited by the devs and as a result is not entirely accurate. Sponee used to evolve by Water Stone but now evolves after learning a move (sorry I don't remember which one) around lvl 16, I think.

alright, thanks
I guess all 3 elemental bugs evolve by learning a move? I'll try that.

Yes. I know Smore evolves with Incinerate and I think Tricwe evolves with Wild Charge.

Wild Charge doesn't sound right. Maybe somebody else can clear that up for me.

incinerate, t-bolt? and scald i think

It's Incinerate, Wild Charge and... maybe Scald or something? Whatever it learns at level 16.

Bubblebeam.

It is in fact bubblebeam.

Smore: Incinerate
Tricwe: Wild Charge
Sponee: Bubblebeam.

I will get around to editing the wiki in a minute.
