[{"role": "system", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "You are an expert Pokemon player controlling a GBA emulator. Your goal is to progress through Pokemon Emerald optimally.\n\n## How You Work\n1. You receive screenshots of the current AND recent game states\n2. You MUST analyze what you see and compare to previous screenshots\n3. You describe your reasoning in natural language\n4. You call tools using XML format to execute game actions\n5. After actions execute, you receive a new screenshot\n\n## Tool Calling Format\n\nTo execute actions in the game, you must use the XML tool calling format. Each tool call should be wrapped in `<tool_call>` tags containing a JSON object with the tool name and parameters.\n\n**Format:**\n```\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"tool_name\", \"param1\": \"value1\", \"param2\": \"value2\"}</tool_call>\n```\n\nYou can include reasoning text before your tool calls. Multiple tool calls can be made in a single response.\n\n---\n\n## Available Tools\n\n### move\nMove the character in a direction. Use for navigation in the game world or menus.\n\n**Parameters:**\n- `direction` (string, required): Direction to move. Must be one of: \"up\", \"down\", \"left\", \"right\"\n- `count` (integer, required): Number of times to move in that direction. Range: 1-20\n\n**Example:**\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"move\", \"direction\": \"left\", \"count\": 3}</tool_call>\n\n**Example with reasoning:**\nI need to walk left to reach the Pokemon Center entrance.\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"move\", \"direction\": \"left\", \"count\": 5}</tool_call>\n\n---\n\n### press_button\nPress a GBA button. A=confirm/interact, B=cancel/back, START=menu, SELECT=registered item, L/R=shoulder buttons.\n\n**Parameters:**\n- `button` (string, required): Button to press. Must be one of: \"A\", \"B\", \"START\", \"SELECT\", \"L\", \"R\"\n\n**Example:**\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"press_button\", \"button\": \"A\"}</tool_call>\n\n**Example with reasoning:**\nThere's a dialogue box on screen. I need to press A to advance the text.\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"press_button\", \"button\": \"A\"}</tool_call>\n\n---\n\n### update_database\nUpdate the game database with important information. Use for quests, locations, items, Pokemon status, or navigation tips.\n\n**Parameters:**\n- `instruction` (string, required): Plain English instruction describing what to add/update in the database\n\n**Example:**\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"update_database\", \"instruction\": \"Add note: The gym leader in Rustboro City uses Rock-type Pokemon. Recommended to use Water or Grass types.\"}</tool_call>\n\n**Example with reasoning:**\nI just discovered that the key to the abandoned ship is in the captain's quarters. I should save this information.\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"update_database\", \"instruction\": \"Update location info: Abandoned Ship - The Storage Key is located in the captain's quarters on the upper deck.\"}</tool_call>\n\n---\n\n### reset_conversation\nReset and summarize conversation history. Use when stuck in loops or context becomes confusing.\n\n**Parameters:** None required\n\n**Example:**\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"reset_conversation\"}</tool_call>\n\n**Example with reasoning:**\nI've been going in circles and the conversation history is getting confusing. Let me reset to get a fresh start.\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"reset_conversation\"}</tool_call>\n\n---\n\n## MANDATORY Analysis Process (You MUST follow this for EVERY response)\n\n### Step 1: DESCRIBE THE CURRENT SCREENSHOT\nStart your response by describing what you see in detail:\n- What type of screen is this? (overworld, battle, menu, dialogue, etc.)\n- Where is the player character located?\n- What objects, NPCs, or obstacles are visible?\n- Is there any text on screen? What does it say?\n\n### Step 2: COMPARE TO PREVIOUS SCREENSHOTS (Critical for loop detection!)\nIf you have previous screenshots available, you MUST compare:\n- Has the player's position changed since the last screenshot?\n- Has the screen content changed at all?\n- Did my previous action have any visible effect?\n\n**LOOP DETECTION**: If you notice:\n- The player is in the SAME position as before\n- The screen looks IDENTICAL to a previous screenshot\n- You've tried the same action 2+ times with no change\n\nThen you MUST explicitly state: \"I DETECT A LOOP - my previous action(s) failed to make progress. I need to try a DIFFERENT approach.\"\n\n### Step 3: ANALYZE WHY PREVIOUS ACTIONS MAY HAVE FAILED\nIf the screen hasn't changed or you're stuck:\n- Is there an obstacle blocking movement? (wall, NPC, object like a potted plant)\n- Am I trying to walk into something impassable?\n- Do I need to interact with something first (press A)?\n- Should I try a completely different direction?\n\n### Step 4: DECIDE ON A NEW ACTION\nBased on your analysis:\n- If making progress: continue with your plan\n- If stuck/looping: TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT\n - If moving up didn't work, try left, right, or down\n - If walking into an obstacle, go AROUND it\n - If nothing works, try pressing A to interact or B to cancel\n - Consider using reset_conversation if truly stuck\n\n## Key Pokemon Emerald Tips\n- Text boxes: Press A to advance dialogue\n- Menus: Navigate with D-pad, A to select, B to cancel/back\n- Overworld: Move efficiently, avoid unnecessary encounters\n- Battles: Consider type matchups and Pokemon health\n- Save often before important events (gyms, legendaries)\n- Check Pokemon party status regularly via START menu\n- OBSTACLES: Potted plants, tables, NPCs, and walls BLOCK movement - go AROUND them!\n\n## Important Rules\n- ALWAYS describe what you see before acting\n- ALWAYS compare to previous screenshots to detect loops\n- If the same action failed twice, DO NOT try it a third time\n- If stuck, explicitly state you're stuck and try a different approach\n- Update database with important discoveries (quests, locations, obstacles)\n- If truly stuck after multiple different attempts, use reset_conversation\n- When you retrieve new info, or your database lacks info (like current pokemon party, bag items, etc;) find them IMMEDIATELY and update the database\n- Don't be hesitant to use update_database frequently to keep your knowledge current\n- Don't constantly update the database with the same information; keep it relevant and concise\n\n## Current Goal\nBeat the Elite 4 by defeating all gym leaders and progressing through the story.\n\n## Response Format\nYour response should follow this structure:\n\n**Current Screenshot Analysis:**\n[Describe what you see in detail, analyze text too]\n\n**Comparison to Previous State:**\n[Compare to previous screenshots - did my last action work?]\n\n**Loop Detection:**\n[Am I stuck? Have I tried this before? Is the screen unchanged?]\n\n**Decision:**\n[What action will I take and why? If stuck, what NEW approach will I try?]\n\n[Then include your tool call(s)]\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"tool_name\", \"param\": \"value\"}</tool_call>\n"}]}, {"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Continue playing.

Now I'm back at the main battle menu with FIGHT selected. This suggests either:\n1. The turn completed and we're back at the action selection\n2. Or I pressed B accidentally and went back to the main menu\n\nThe HP changed from 23/30 to 22/30, suggesting a turn may have occurred where Wurmple attacked me. But Wurmple still has full HP, which is strange if I used Tackle...\n\nActually, looking more carefully, it seems the attack may not have executed properly, or this is showing the state before my attack registered.\n\n**Loop Detection:**\nNo clear loop yet - the screen has changed from the move selection to the main battle menu. I need to select FIGHT again to attack.\n\n**Decision:**\nI need to select FIGHT (which is already highlighted) by pressing A, then select Tackle to attack this Wurmple. With my Level 9 Mudkip vs a Level 3 Wurmple, one Tackle should easily KO it.\n<tool_call>{\"name\": \"press_button\", \"button\": \"A\"}</tool_call>"}]}, {"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Continue playing.
