naphj10 debug.srl, as the name implies, is a Japanese debug-enabled build of Blue Rescue Team that was included in the Nintendo Gigaleak.

Build Date

As noted on the menu screen, this build was made on Nov 24 2005, a week after it's Japanese release.

Top Debug Menu

On the top menu screen there is a debug menu present, with some functions to it.

Dungeons

This allows the player to access any dungeon in the game. The bottom screen has some debug info on the bottom left.

The player controls a Pikachu, while their partner is a Squirtle.

Field

Transports the player to the debug room; it functions exactly the same as the original game.

The player controls a Charmander, but with no partner Pokémon to follow them around.

Documentation of the area can be found here.

Field Map

Seems to be a sprite viewer for Field areas in the game.

Field Script

Seems to be an event transporter, partially broken, as some of the warps will stick you in invalid areas of the Team Base.

Here, the player controls a Charmander, however this time the partner is present and is a Squirtle.

Debug Menu

Another debug menu, this time all in English.

Quick Test

A text box test, in which shows a Bulbasaur portrait at the beginning of the test.

Monster Anim

Animation viewer for Pokémon sprites. Crashes the game unless you've already been to a dungeon once since boot, as this seems to need some dungeon elements to be loaded to work properly.

"KIND" switches Pokémon.
"MOTION" changes the animation played. Additionally, changes portrait expression.
"DIR" changes the direction. Additionally, changes portrait direction (normal or inverted).
"EFFECT" does nothing, except in "PALETTE" mode where it determines the palette used.
"TRICK" plays the selected move animation for this Pokémon when A is pressed.
"POS_XY" changes the position of the sprite, between "UP", "DOWN" and "CENTER".
"OFFSET" changes the offset to display in "OFFSET" mode.
"MODE" changes the mode between "NORMAL", "OFFSET", "PAUSE" (stops animation) and "PALETTE"
"HELP" display the help (shown in the image below).

Select exits this mode, Start hides/shows all options and L/R advances the animation by one frame, which is most useful in "PAUSE" mode.

Efct-Ground

Animation viewer for the ground effects.

Efct-Dungeon

Animation viewer for the dungeon effects.

Status

Viewer for status sprites. Crashes the game unless you've already been to a dungeon once since boot, as this seems to need some dungeon elements to be loaded to work properly.

This displays each status icon as they should appear in dungeons by setting and resetting each status flag with the D-pad and pressing A.

Re Random Re

Crashes the game; it hangs with the music still playing, and prints a crash handler error to the top screen.

Re Random Sw

Shows a screen with Jobs.

Re Random Po

Shows your mail from the mailbox at your Team Base.

Re Random Bo

Shows jobs you've accepted from your mailbox.

Re User Bo

Shows a screen with rescue jobs, but accepting any of them will crash the game.

Sound

Implied by the name, this is a sound test where you can play music from the game and preview sound effects.

Mn Diagnosis

This will print letters to the screen; pressing the A will display a dialog box. If you choose any option from the dialog box, it will overwrite the textbox with the previous text.

This function serves as the diagnostics test for the personality quiz at the beginning of the game.

Mn Name

This calls up the player's name input menu, but entering a name will return an error and go back to the debug menu.

Mn Bank

This will invoke the menu for the Persian Bank, but with the maximum amount of money deposited.

Mn Keeper

This will display the Kangaskhan Storage menu.

Mn Store

Seems to be the Kangaskhan Storage's item box.

Mn Merchant

This will bring up the Kecleon Shop menu.

Mn Territory

This will show the Friend Area expansion menu from Wigglytuff.

Mn Formation

This will display the menu for when you choose Pokémon from their respective Friend Areas.

Mn Evolution

This displays the menu for evolving in Luminous Cave.

Mn Synthesis

This shows the Gulpin Link Shop menu.

Flash Load

Seems to only give the user a textbox saying "Debug Only". But by the name, this will load your save file. Only prints a dialog box with the message "Debug Only." Judging by the name, this was meant to load your save file.

Flash Save

Saves your game.

Flash Reset

Erases your save file.

Storage

Crashes the game when selected.

h-open

Does nothing, just closes the debug menu.

Ground Debug Menu

This sub menu can be accessed by selecting the last option in the menu, when not in dungeons. Options are all listed in the same order as presented in the menu.

Main Menu

Immediately returns to the top menu. As the game does not reload your save from this option, continuing will get you back as if you saved from this point.

Main Scenario Progress

Opens a menu displaying information about the current main scenario and sub scenarios. The first option seems to change the main scenario Progress. The second and third option respectively change the player and partner Pokémon.
