I created a shiny living dex in a gen 5 save file, when I try to sent some mons to the bank through the pokétransfer they usually had no problem but today I noticed that Kyogre and Rayquaza get rejected as invalid despite being marked as legal on PkHex. I tried more than one to re-gen those mons but the result is the same. White2_LivingDex.sav

bad idea.

Anyone?

Everything Kaphotics said is 100% correct. I am just adding on one bit of information before I lock this thread. The random tracker you assigned on the mon, then placed into Sword, which then entered HOME, didn't become valid. HOME merely assigned a different tracker cause the existing tracker on it is invalid. It is known that Error 10015 checks don't occur when a mon enters HOME from SWSH. Anyhow, as Kaphotics mentioned, even if HOME accepts this "bypass", yours lack the full paper trail and you're at least risking your own account, not to mention even the entire console. If you don't love the idea of expensive consoles becoming almost mere paperweights, I suggest you stop trying to abuse HOME.

Sword and Shield act as the gateway and thus don't really require a HOME tracker for entering. It's already known, I can't be bothered to dig up a thread post on the forums where it is mentioned, so I'll just rewrite whatever advice it probably contains: Even though you may be able to bypass the initial checks that home does and get assigned a tracker by the server, it does not prevent them from banning the method in the future or banning your account/mons. It's a traceable behavior, as you didn't upload them from Bank, you uploaded them from SWSH, as they'd lack their PK7 data logs on the server. Is it currently un-actioned? Yes. Is it detectable? Yes. Is it safe? No. Note: this bypass only "works" for SWSH, not any other games. To answer your question as to why nobody talks about it: because it's not safe. If HOME can detect it (so too can power users within the Pokemon hacking community), then it should be obvious why it's inadvisable. Champions has not performed any ban waves. Can they? Yep. All data in champions is stored server side, and all foreign data not from recruits or gifts must have passed through HOME, so they have the paper trail too. Yours would lack the full paper trail. An extremely simple ban rule to program if they choose to

Out of curiosity I was wondering why no one does anything with the Home Tracker. I've been messing around with the Home Tracker for a couple weeks now and just found out how to assign a Home Tracker to any pokemon. I went to confirm this by going into the encounter database and pulling a random pokemon specifically umbreon from the Colosseum game; assigned it a Home Tracker put it into my copy of Sword proceeded to go to Pokemon Home to confirm if I would get the Home tracker error or if it would be able to transfer into the box, and it went through and after I sent the Umbreon to Pokemon Champions. So I'm wondering why no one talks about this? I surely could not be the only one who has tried this idea?

You may want to specify the game version, update number, and whether the save must work on Switch hardware or an emulator. That will help others confirm compatibility before sharing a file.

Is water shuriken and Contrary ability in the game

This is my first time on here and I wanted to see if I can get any help restoring a lost save file I had for Pokemon Sun (digital version). I don't know how I lost it, I might have deleted it years ago and it could just be gone forever is what I think but I figured its worth a shot trying to find it. I have the original 3ds sd card backup on my PC. I found some lost SAV files with Disk Drill and another SAV file on my backup folder in the sd card. Ive tried using Checkpoint methods Ive seen online but I keep getting corrupted save message whenever I open the game. My question is how do I know which one is my pokemon save and how to properly transfer it to my digital copy of Sun? Note: I have a modded 2ds with a different sd card. its the original one I had the game on the first image is the recovered SAV files I found and the second image is the SAV from the backup folder. The date on the second image is the same date I started the game 6/30/2017. (Im not sure if that might be it) Im open to any help at all.

hi, is there a way to use the european cheat codes on hacked 3ds/TW menu++?

No.

any updates?

I was using the 60 fps AR code in my play through, im at the point where cynthia should show up in the distortion world but she doesnt and she only spawns at the bottom despite having my cheats turned off. Can anyone fix the flags up until this point or lmk what flags arent triggering that is causing this? I tried to play through without cheats on a previous save point (around a little after gym 7 before the explosion at the lake) and its still bugging out. Played original broken on melonds, and the second play from gym 7 on desmume and still have the issue. Any help would be appreciated. Pokemon - Platinum Versionbr.sav

It's caused by the lack of depositor-trainer data (TID/SID/OT Name missing, all zero). You can ignore it for now; not sure how I want to work around this since Ranch isn't fully supported in the PKM editor / legality checking engine.

This error only occurs with *My Pokémon Ranch* save files. When I transfer this pokemon to a save file from another game—like Gen 4 titles or later—this error doesn't happen.

Please upload one of the pkm files.

It means there's something excessively wrong with the Pokémon that the legality checker doesn't handle. Without seeing the other tabs, can't tell what is misconfigured.

Hey Guys, I was editing the My Pokémon Ranch save and I don't understand this error. How do I fix it?

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking for. The program executable updates periodically, for you to download and replace the executable. Any files that it generates (such as save file backups) are stored in a folder adjacent to the executable, and are not deleted when you replace the executable unless you delete the folder that contains it. Running an old version of the program does not give you any advantages compared to the latest release. You shouldn't need to run old versions of the program. If a plugin only works on an old version of the program, it is better to ask the plugin author to update their plugin, or find elsewhere if it has been updated by others.

I've been tinkering with it for quite sometime but I'm still a little lost, which section within Pkhex could I be able to access that?

Following: sorry for spamming, but this is important. Not only are restrictions broken for a lot of Dungeons, but I just finished Zero Isle West with a Basculegion recruited in Brine Cave (level 40 or so). This dungeon DID properly bring it down to level 1, however upon finishing it the Basculegion remained at the level I finished it at: level 15, instead of going back to level 40. I thought maybe this had something to do with the universal EXP Share of the romhack, but I'm not sure since it all worked fine before 1.2. This might just a scripting problem, since the dungeons do have their restrictions properly checked. Edit for additional info: upon testing a bit, I noticed that Purity Grove (custom dungeon, but still) allowed me in without reverting my level back to 1 as long as I didn't have any items on me, without the usual restriction warnings. When I tried to enter it with one item in my bag, the game properly gave me the restrictions warning text, and my level actually was reverted to 1.

Just a quick note, currently just cleared Apple Woods recruited a Bounsweet: it's first ability is Snow Cloak in the ROM, not Leaf Guard.

@WindchildWhimsy just wanted to confirm that several dungeons with restrictions don't work properly since 1.2. For example, Purity Grove no longer bringing your party to level 1 and Temporal Tower allowing recruitment as mentioned earlier in the topic ; and today I was able to enter Zero Isle South without it making my leader level 1 either (and allows recruitment).
