Question about pokemon files. (For collection stuff)

[Vladcik]

Hi,
I know i'm coming with a stupid question but anyway... For the past weeks, i've started to extract my saves in order to put some order on my Shiny collection (4000+ at the moment, with RNG and all that kind of stuff) but now i've some doubt for the future.

In the past, i'd problems with extracted Pokemon from other tools (like corrupted files with Pikasav or Pikaedit for 4/5G and 1/2G files) so i've started to put everything in an usb key but I'd like to be sure that pkhex is enough ready for files from past gens. (I mean gen 5 or older)

I've did my collection with 6G/7G because i think it's okay now, but i'd like to know if I can do the same with older gens (long and difficult project in fact)

Thanks !

PKHeX can be used for all Gens.

Well, I know that, of course. But I mean is save editing for earlier version is SAFE enough in order to have proper Pokemon files and can be used without any problem in the future ? I'm talking about nicknames / dates / encounter place.

Thanks !

PKHeX decrypts the data and doesn't modify it. Dumping box data is safe.

Awesome, because i had a lot of problems with older editors so I wanted to be sure before doing a hard work on it !

Thank you so much !
