Disclaimer
Pokémon, Nintendo DS, and HeartGold are names used here to identify Trinsic64’s patch and the game it modifies. They belong to their owners, including Nintendo, The Pokémon Company, Game Freak, and Creatures. This guide is not published by those companies or by Trinsic64.
ROMs and patches
The repository says it contains patch files and mapping resources only. This site follows that line. We link to GitHub Releases for the xdelta. We do not upload a HeartGold ROM, a pre-patched ROM, or a mirror of the patch.
You are responsible for owning a legal dump of the USA HeartGold cartridge before you patch. Emulator sites linked from the platform page are their own publishers.
The site does not republish repository screenshots. The home-page hero is an original illustration made for this guide; official game media remains linked at its source.
Questions people ask
Can I download HeartGold here?
No. Only a link to the author’s patch.
Is the hero image official art?
No. It is an original illustration for this site. Official media is linked at its original source.
