Thanks HottSushiz,
Here's what recently happened: I recently updated my pokemon white on my R4 wood to an english patch and while everything seemed to work like before including the codes that were active at the time (box cloning, check IVs, fast egg hatch, MTRNG code check), the one thing I couldn't seem to do in R4 settings was press X to view my cheats so I can activate/deactivate and where I would further generate them. Good thing I had a backup of my nonpatched nds file so I could temporarily restore that and do whatever I needed to do where I needed to replenish my rare candy supply, and once I was done I'd restore back to the new english patch and continue on.
