Pokemon Ultra Sun - Hall of Fame bug possible workaround

Citra Support
#1

If anyone already pointed this then this post is pointless, I’m posting because I couldn’t find an open post to reply.

Citra version: Canary Build - 68fce6e
Game: Pokemon Ultra Sun

It is a known bug that happens after you beat the League, game freezes when you enter the Hall of Fame.
One solution was to go through the whole process with only 3 pokemons.
I saw one guy going on Pokemon Sun with 3 pokemons and CPU JIT disabled and other one saying that going only going with 5 pokemons it would still work.

I was able to go with 5 pokemons and with CPU JIT disabled.

I think it would still work only with CPU JIT deactivated (I can’t test, game saved after the credits).

I don’t know if it only works with Pokemon Ultra Sun or for all versions (U-Sun/U-Moon Sun/Moon).

This is actually somewhat interesting, I remember 5 sometimes worked but I had no idea that the CPU JIT was related, I’ll pass it on.

#3

they are the same game basically so what ever applies to Usun and sun also applies to Umoon and moon

#4

It looks likely that this workaround works due to timing differences between the interpreter and the JIT.

I tested this in Moon but it still softlocked. Would be great if someone else could verify that workaround in USUM
