Beyond the Glitch: Why I Learned to Read Pokémon’s Brain with XSE I felt like a wizard who just spoke
Back in the day, if you wrote a script, you had to manually find empty space in the ROM (a nightmare). XSE automates this. It finds the free space, writes your code, and links everything together. It turns ROM hacking from a guessing game into a legitimate development workflow. If you’ve never touched XSE, do me a favor. Download it. Load a clean Pokémon FireRed ROM. Open the script for the player’s bedroom.
