Pokémon Battle Revolution save research thread

[Mattlau04]

Was the adress to enable box storage ever found?

[SammyPoke]

Did anyone figure out how to add the Colosseum Leaders and the Colosseum Masters into a Battle Pass?

I really want to play as these.

Well that wasn't my question since for these inputs I would need the TID and SID already for filling these offsets, but I did not have these values.

Oh well, fixed my issue in a different way and it might be helpful for others and research to explain this.

 

So my problem:
I want to have a compatible German save, however the saves are language locked, so most of the files you find are in English (the same problem can be probably found every over language).
 

So how do you tackle that?

What I did was to look into the decrypted save of a freshly generated German save file and an English one I found online.

After that I tried to change some lines in the English save to the German one, so that I might get the German property.

This gets me the following steps:

Apparently if you take a PBR Save file with any language, get the following tool for decompression: https://projectpokemon.org/home/forums/topic/36582-pok%C3%A9mon-battle-revolution-save-research-thread/page/2/?tab=comments#comment-219653

Decrypt the save and edit the following lines in a hex editor:

0x000380-0x00039F to: 80 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 40 72 05 75 D3 5B 08 00 00 42 00 65 00 6E 00 65 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

and 0x0003C1 to: 4D

Encrypt it and it changes the name to "Bene", the save timer value is changed and the language is German!

Yeah and that is my discovery here.
Some further investigation can be made, which values change what and what the language value is and what it is for other languages and et volà, you can change the lanuage of a save file!

I'm trying to change my name in this save file from Mae to rufioh but everytime I try, I just get an save data corrupted error when I reload the game. Any help?
I'm using someone else's save that has box access cos I don't have a DS anymore.

I'm using a PAL copy of the game, and I want to play in English or French

added wrong version of the save

[FullLifeGames]

@rufioh I tried to decrypt your save but it is very different to the decrypted data I'm used to, something seems to definitly have gone wrong!

[MysticLunar]

Please Help, I've done everything to try and decrypt my save and it won't just work and won't accept the decrypted file, also can not see any mon in storage and this is on an emulator. Also do not know how this one is working.

If you are trying to open the save to edit it, PKHeX will decrypt the save for you to edit and then encrypt in order to save the edits. But, if you're wanting a decrypted save for research purposes here is the save decrypted.

Awesome! Thank you so much for this, it helped a lot.

Anyway, I think I already found something pretty interesting. At first, I was just trying to edit my rental pass trainer's skin tone, but I accidentally stumbled across something neater than that. By editing 0x23895 (where my first/main rental pass is) from 06 to 07, I was able to change my trainer to Lucas from DP. His trainer class is considered "Young Boy A" in the game, although he has his own unique animations. Weirdly enough, his Battle Pass portrait is messed up; it zooms in on his legs rather than his face or full body!
I'll try more values to see if Dawn, the boss trainers, or alternate skin tones are available.

Edit: I have just tested out values 08, 09, 0A, 0B, and 0D. 08 let me play as Dawn, who is also called "Young Boy A". 09, 0A, 0B and 0D crashed the game upon loading Battle Passes.

Basically: 07 = Lucas, 08 = Dawn. 06 and under are all legal trainer classes.

I've also found out where the skin tone is determined. It is at offset 0x23A62. The default (A) skin tone is 0, but setting it to 1 will change it to B, the slightly darker one. Setting it to 2 will likely make it C. It was probably located here since the Japanese version didn't let you change skin tones, so they placed the setting in a near-inaccessible location.

I've also been trying to search for where rental Pokemon are located, but haven't had any luck so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I Checked my Decrypted Save in HxD and found that My Custom Passes and Friend Passes were actually above my Rental Passes so I just scrolled down from the top and came across the name of my Personal Trainer Card and found that the model id must be close like maybe 3 or 4 bytes to the right or so and they were, so after changing it to "08" I now have a working Dawn Trainer Pass, if anyone wants to edit their Custom Passes it should be Below your Save File then you should see your Pass Name "D�a�w�n������������ÿÿÿÿ+êÿ������ÿÿÿÿ�c�e� �m�e�e�t�i�n�g� �y�o�u�!" or something like this, the model data is the 3rd or 4th Dot or "�" after  somethin' like this "ÿÿÿÿ+êÿ" then once you change it to "07" or "08" it should be Dawn or Lucas. also thanks james and blackshark  for the decrypt/encrypt tool and info of the model ids. I've been looking for ways to pay as Dawn and now I finally can so thanks!

hi guys, I have a question and I hope you can help me, several years ago I deleted my save of pokemon soulsilver, but recently I realized that I had connected it with pbr, my question is if there is any way to extract the save of pokemon soulsilver from the save of pbr. or only the data of the pokemon is copied and nothing else? I already extracted my pokemon, but I wish I could extract all the data. Thank you very much in advance for your reply and sorry for my bad English.

[Akunoko]

Btw, forgot to post that 3y ago, cuz who in the world would need any of this except coupons, but well, who knows.

Offsets for 1st slot (pretty sure it's on same places for other, but too lazy to check). All profile records except "time played", seems I didn't found that.

(Probably there is more, since coupons and total battles uses at least 3 bytes, but seems searching of other wasn't that successful too)

 

Poke Coupons:
0x12861-12863

Total no. of battles:
0x1286A-1286B (1+2 byte)
0x12864 (3rd byte)

No. of Colosseum Battles:
0x12868-12869 (1+2 byte)
0x1286F (3rd byte)

No. of Free Battles:
0x1286C-1286E

No. of Gateway Colosseum clears:
0x12870

No. of Crystal Colosseum clears:
0x12874

No. of Neon Colosseum clears:
0x12875

No. of Waterfall Colosseum clears:
0x12876

Sorry If I'm necroposting. @BlackShark The method of unlocking Box storage seems to only work for one of the four slots, namely, the first one. The game holds FOUR different trainers. I am trying to open the box for the fourth trainer.

 

Hello! I am looking to compare two pokemon battle revolution saves, so I can compare them with both PKHex and HexEdit. I am trying to find out where the information is stored for the game base of which ds game was used to transfer pokemon into the game.

I need:

1 save using a Pearl ds game transfer.
1 save using a Diamond ds game transfer.

They can contain any type of pokemon, even level 5 useless. It's just for research.

Thanks

[Akunoko]

Well, seems I finally found version offsets. Or I think so, because they changing Mysterial teams at least and I'm too stupid to find any other way to check it in-game.
 

1 - 0x128EF

2 - 0x827EF

3 - 0xF26EF

4 - 0x1625EF

Values: 0x04 for Diamond/Platinum/SoulSilver; 0x18 for Pearl/HeartGold

Can't actually guarantee it 0x18 for HG also, cuz lazy to lf for random save with that one, but since it for sure 0x04 for D/Pt/SS, I suppose we can trust it is.

 

@Aurorans On second page of this thread offsets for all slots, btw... Anyway PKHeX can be used for that, so no real reason to write IDs in hex data since long time ago.

So I'm wondering all this time, how I would get the TID and SID of my user profile.

All I get from PKHeX is the user profile name, but since there is no Pokémon, I cannot look at the Trainer TID and SID there and from debugging and looking at the values, I'm not sure, if the values are even extracted.

If you have a good way of getting the TID and SID, I would greatly appreciate your help, even if it's just the HeX value of where it is stored in my decrypted save file!

I don't know if someone still need this answer, but today I could solve the great mistery just setting the fields DisplaySID and DisplayTID, on PKHeX Block Data, to some IDs I took from another save file that already had it set. It was just a copy and paste of the same IDs and than the export of the SAV. It worked perfectly for me, solving both the storage and language problems. Hope it helps someone!

Hello, I would like to change my save from Pokemon Battle Revolution which is in English to French would you know how to do?

Not sure if anyone still wants to know, but changing the below offsets to all zeroes will clear all pokemon from the rental passes (save file 1 only) and allow you to add storage pokemon to said rental passes.

If you want the rental pokemon to look legit, just use PKHeX and set level and met level to 50, origin game and met location to none, ball to pokeball, and OT to PKTOPIA.

Maybe I'll find the offsets for save files 2, 3 and 4....if I have time and someone really really needs it....

Have fun

how do you find these values, where can i find or use them
