First things first: You'll need a clean dump of your own copy of Blue to use this.
I personally imaged my own cart with a Transfer Pak and a Raphnet N64-controller-to-USB adapter. (MD5 hash to verify: 50927e843568814f7ed45ec4f944bd8b)
Once you've got it, feed both that file and 💽 this .BPS patch file to RomPatcher.js and click "Apply patch."
You can use the patched game in an emulator like mGBA or SameBoy, or you can play it on a real hardware GBC with an Everdrive GB or by overwriting a blank/bootleg cart with a GBxCart RW.
If you would like to continue either or both of the adventures you had with this game in July 2022 and this past month, you can find the 🔋 .SAV data here, preserved from each playthrough's defeat of the Elite Four.
How to load the .SAV files in your emulator or cartridge of choice may vary, but often it's just a matter of figuring out what filename they need to have and what folder they need to be placed into. Note that we won't be able to give personalized assistance with figuring this out -- ask your closest retro-gaming nerd friend if you're having trouble! (You can technically write these save files to an ordinary Red/Blue cartridge, too, but EGGBUG will be represented by a MISSINGNO if you do, so no guarantees about stability.)
