thx reworked it again should be good now even most event times are right i think

Honestly, thanks you again, so much, for the responses. I will now let them know this info. and will not be buying the save/game from them. I know it's a lot to ask, but they also have an Emerald save/game - at this point, based on this particular save file, it definitely could also be tampered with, but if you, or anyone, have any extra free time, I could upload that save file as well to this post after work to deep dive that one as well. Really appreciate everything.

Response inline. They shouldn't be trying to make excuses for why their modifications are clearly detectable, they should just own up to it. I wouldn't put any value on the save file, even if you only consider Lugia and Deoxys with the assumption that they were encountered without any cheats being active. They are simply unremarkable. Sure they may have completed XD legitimately, but they hacked in the event ticket item+flag to encounter Deoxys.

As it stands, this point below in itself is sufficient to prove that the save itself isn't clean. Everything else was just a really sweet and juicy cherry on top. You cannot legitimately trigger those flags in the wrong order. I am sorry to say that the save is definitely not clean and the story about receiving the ticket on this save is patently false, full stop. Nothing they can say will change that >< Not part of the main point, but rather just adding on:

Thank you

Thank you SO much for the detailed list. I let them know about this and this was their response to some of those points (copy and pasted from them)...I will just list your points with "Q" and theirs with "A". Q: Articuno/Moltres/Zapdos all share the same unremarkable PID/IV. Possible modified from each other. A: "i will admit i did generate legendary birds (and maybe even Lugia) at one point but i thought that was on a different save and not this one. regardless tho, that is literally how the program pkhex generated them (which they claim generates legit pokemon but apparently not if they give all same friendship and pid/ivs)." Q: Venusaur and Blastoise are level >90 and have 0 EVs. A: "i used vitamins or rare candies i believe" Q: The Suicune in the Roamer data does not match the Suicune they captured. A: "there's nothing stating it has to....i had/have multiple save files with the same trainer name so it was most likely traded over or something." Q: Every single TM is owned (in bag), but multiple Pokemon have TM moves learned. Somewhat suspicious. A: "what would be suspicious about that? you can trade games and teach moves." Q: The save file has only been saved 60 times. / Only healed in the pokecenter 19 times. Crazy low amount. / Used the daycare 8 times? hatched less than 2 dozen eggs? A: "where exactly in the program do you see this? i will download it and check it out myself." Q: Pokedex is complete, but Spinda's PID is still uninitialized (zero), implying the pokedex was cheated to complete. A: "what does this even mean and where do you see this?" Q: Lugia has the exact same IVs as the other 3 birds. A: "again, COULD have been generated that i mistaken for another save of mine. but if it was generated, that is pkhex's fault then for claiming to give legitimate pokemon"

You can, just like people have always been able to use a virtual machine. But I don’t really see the point of using an environment that eats up gigabytes of RAM, CPU cores, and disk space just to install another operating system for software that already works with two simple commands through Wine, which is native anyway. On top of that, we don’t even know how long Winboat will be maintained, whereas Wine is here to stay. And I don’t think anyone would prefer buying a Windows license just for PKHeX.

Just saw this, its late, so I'll do that and come back. I'll delete the old folder and come back with a new prefix and I'll let you know what happens.

yeah but would it still work? Ive done it with reins of unity and dna splicers etc

I'd advise against doing that.

i cannot do that because the save file i want them on is on my unhacked switch and i cant transfer the data to the modded switch casue it is console banned from the internet. Im asking if i trade over the treats from snacksworth to my unhacked switch and save file will it activate the legendaries

Edit your save file to change the amount of group quests completed then

Hi, if I were to use pkhax to give pokemon the snackworth treats and trade them over to my real save file will the legendaries activate? IOr If i used a cheat to spawn a pokemon in holding the treats and make my real save file catch them will it activate the legendaries for me? i know this worked for pecharunt before they offically revealed the Mystical Pecha berry. I have acces to the dlc and have comepelted the game plus both dlcs, or do I have to suffer through doing 120 group quests with myself? lol

Currently shiny hunting and here to report some errors. The treasure (Manaphy's Item and the Wonder Gummies at Surrounded Sea doesn't seem to be collectable. I can leave with the warp sone at the bottom but not pickup and items. It also has Pokemon strangely. Including a Shiny Milotic. The Magnemite at Dark Hill is the correct spawn rate and level but its not shiny. Checking Soul Eater's TM description crashes the game.

I'm request a pokemon sword complete save file Includung in the complete save file are: - Female Protagonist Trainer - Complete all pokedex (All legit regular and shiny pokemon) - Complete the main story, postgame, Isle of Armor, and Crown Tundra

Did not receive Mystic Ticket, yet can travel to Navel Rock? Hasn't even shown the Aurora ticket to the captain, yet has the flags to be able to travel to both event islands. Every single pokemon in the boxes has default friendship. Articuno/Moltres/Zapdos all share the same unremarkable PID/IV. Possible modified from each other. Snorlax PID/IV is exactly the same as ^ except with the top bits flipped. Very suspicious. Eevee (leftmost) has the exact same IV spread. Extremely suspicious for an egg. Venusaur and Blastoise are level >90 and have 0 EVs. Venusaur has all ribbons (including contest stats) without any pokeblocks used. Insanely suspicious. The Suicune in the Roamer data does not match the Suicune they captured. Every single TM is owned (in bag), but multiple Pokemon have TM moves learned. Somewhat suspicious. Initial E4 clear has an entirely different Charizard PID (4A5E25BB) from the one in party (C2947D2E). Both are level 100. The TID/SID is different from the novelty TID of the save file, implying that the save file TID/SID was changed. The Hall of Fame only has 2 entries, implying the Hall of Fame was only cleared one extra time. Strange that the team has none of their OT present, and instead shows level 100s from various trainers instead. 4/6 party members have 3/3 PP Ups. All have 252/252/6 EVs (except Venusaur, as mentioned above, has no EVs). The save file has only been saved 60 times. Very suspicious for someone with 600 hours played. Only 124 Pokémon were captured. Very hard to fill out boxes with such a small amount. Only healed in the pokecenter 19 times. Crazy low amount. Only received ribbons once, which makes sense for the duplicate Hall of Fame clears. Used the daycare 8 times? hatched less than 2 dozen eggs? getting vgc-player vibes here. Only did 9 trades. lmao. You can't complete the pokedex with only 9 trades, sorry. Pokedex is complete, but Spinda's PID is still uninitialized (zero), implying the pokedex was cheated to complete. Lugia has the exact same IVs as the other 3 birds. Come on. Only traded 9 times, deoxys has been trained, yet still has 0 friendship. Entirely possible it was traded away then traded back and never touched again, still sus. Nickname trash bytes missing on every single pokemon is incredibly suspicious -- except the Ditto sequestered in the daycare (which has trash bytes as expected!). Zero link battles recorded, yet has the sticker for link battles. nope. This is not a clean save file.

Hi. So, if I open the Encounter Database and then click on the Criteria tab and, for example, fill all IV's to 31 for all stats and click Search, does it force that encounter or does it show Pokemon actually encounter-able that could be possible in whatever game I have open? I only ask because while messing around on that tab and just seeing if all 31 results would come back for random Pokemon I was trying (specifically not from eggs), it was showing results for all 31 IV's in all stats like I set it to. For what it's worth, if it matters, this was for a Gen 3 game. I just want to make sure it isn't forcing illegal results just because I set the Criteria to them.

Wouldn't it be better just to use Winboat? When after installing Cachy OS, you can literally just click a button and it'll install Winboat for you.

I mean, did you try to delete your current wineprefix and repeat the procedure on a completely clean one?

I did make a clean wineprefix. I followed each step mentioned, so I did make a fresh wineprefix.

@ExBurningRaptor Did you try a clean wineprefix? Upgrading/downgrading/changing Wine version can break the wineprefix

I know this will take time I suppose (checking event flags, PIDs, amongst other miscellaneous data to truly verify, etc.) but I wanted to ask if anyone could verify the save file, including the Pokemon on it (not many). From what I am told, the save file is post-game and the individual released all Pokemon except ones of note (such as one-time encounters like the Legendary Birds, Mewtwo, Starter, etc.). They also have a Deoxys that they swear is 100% legitimate from the actual real life event back in the day as well as the Lugia from XD: GoD. Equally important, I am personally curious as to what, if anything, is not 100% legitimate. So, yeah - in short, I just want to see if anyone would be kind enough to spare some time out of their day/night to do a deep dive on it. Thank you! -MJ FR_PostG_Legit_Deox-Lugia.sav

Just did, and sadly same error happened where it didn't even startup. Here's the log for that command.

Toggling a single event flag isn't sufficient to satisfy the start conditions of the final quest. You need to have sufficient game progress. - Condition: work_condition - 5 - "SYS_WORK_DLC_PHASE", "80000" - Condition: work_condition - 5 - "SYS_WORK_QUEST_119", "255" - Condition: work_condition - 5 - "SYS_WORK_QUEST_120", "255" - Condition: have_item_whole_condition - 5 - "ITEMID_PACHIPACHIKYANDII", "1" - Condition: flag_condition - 2 - "flag_Ev_sub_203_000" You should probably just play the game or generate a zeraora instead of breaking your save data.
