An official Pokémon social media account posted HD footage of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire that appears to be running on emulation rather than original Game Boy Advance hardware, prompting speculation among fans that Nintendo Switch ports of these classic games are in development. Dataminers previously found ROM support for third-generation Pokémon games in this year's FireRed and LeafGreen Switch ports, lending further credibility to the theory.
The Pokémon Company's official Japanese account posted a video featuring Mr. Briney from Generation 3 Pokémon games, sparking fan speculation that rumored Switch ports of Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald may be coming. Fans noted the video's vibrant colors and high image quality, suggesting it could be from the unreleased Switch versions, though The Pokémon Company has not officially confirmed any ports.
JevEmon is a system that uses typed decisions over Pokémon FireRed RAM to autonomously navigate the game world. Rather than screenshot analysis or button mashing, it reads game state directly from memory, determines reachable destinations, and executes pathfinding decisions to progress through the game, currently reaching Viridian City while handling wild encounters.
