Great program!
Only question I have -
With pokesav I could export the ARDS code and just drag it over to the ARDS no problem but I don't see the option to do that with PokeGen.
Once I generate the code do we have to type it in manually line by line or is there a quicker way to do it?
So that's what the point of the .xml file is in Pokesav. I could definitely add this, I'd just have to do a bit of research first. At the moment, however, the most you can do is copy/paste, which I'm guessing isn't fast enough, or maybe you just don't know how to utilize it. I don't know why nobody else has mentioned this yet.Quote:

Edit2: I was able to download the AR code manager and use it without having the actual hardware. I can add .xml output to the calculator quite easily... it should be in the next version.
Wow, just copy and paste. It takes literally 2 seconds or less.
I'm loving it! After spending two days with PokeSav to no real luck, I managed to finally flawlessly recreate my party. I do have one issue--if I save a Pokemon as a .pkm file, load a different Pokemon, then reload the first, it inexplicably sets it as currently being in a Egg, even when it was saved as being NOT in an egg. It's not a deal breaker, but it makes working on a Pokemon over an extended period of time somewhat cumbersome. It also doesn't seem to want to save the Hatched/Recieved data very well, reverting to Diamond and Pearl/Day-Care Couple and Platinum/Faraway Place if I save and reload a Pokemon that was originally HeartGold and SoulSiver/Day-Care Couple and HeartGold and SoulSilver/Goldenrod City. I know that as far as the coding codes, it's not really any difference, since Johto locations are read by D/P/Pt as being Faraway Place, but it's still bothersome.
I can't reproduce this. If you can post the two .pkm files you're using to accomplish it, it would help. I can check the code to see if I see any problems in the meantime.Quote:

I checked and there are issues with the way it's loading the data. I'll fix it. It's still not going to be perfect, however. Platinum and HG/SS all set the location data in exactly the same way, so there's no way to differentiate them unless the location is beyond the Platinum range.Quote:

I uploaded the fixes. I also decided against XML support, considering how nearly useless it is.
Hms, did you go against my idea of multiple Pokemon creation yet? Cutting the codes out and pasting them in between the last code line above D2000000 00000000 seems to be a bother. I'd rather make multiple Pokes at once rather than just repeatedly copy and pasting or creating them one by one. This is quite a hassle.
That's quite a huge thing to ask for, so I don't mind if it takes forever. BTW... you should just keep the old small icon for PokeGEN. I can make one for you but I don't know what images sizes are required, haha.
So when you're using a code for multiple Pokemon, you cram it all into a single AR code, rather than multiple code entries with different names? That's what makes it more tricky, trying to cater to different ways of doing things. Regardless though, yes, that's a massive code change that I haven't thought through fully. I haven't made any definitive decision on it yet.Quote:

It needs a 16x16 and 32x32 image. If you want to make something, feel free. It's not hard to make something better than what I did.Quote:

Appending? Yeah that'd be great. Gives me more of a reason to double check everything rather then getting punched in the head when I find something wrong when I put the Pokemon in game.
I don't see any issues. Great job =P
I'm having the same problem as Ashy.Quote:

I'm used to just dragging over the xml file =\
After you create your pokemon, click Generate on PokeGen. Then, simply open the ARDS Code manager then go to the desired game and right click the game and hit Add new cheat. Just copy and paste the Generated code or just simply press Ctrl+V if you've hit the Generate button already. Make sure to name it, everything else there should be explanatory I guess.
But, Codr you should just add that .xml output as it saves a little bit of time.
*Edit: Err, press copy to clipboard after you press generate, my bad. After that everything is the same as I explained.
Im frustrated ): i made a code a few & i tried 1 so far
its for a shiny vulpix in the box box 13 im sure if not box its any box after 13
& you press L&r well it didnt work & i just checked i copied it perfectly :/
): ill post the code if sum1 culd test it? i have heartgold so im not sure
if it matters which game :/
