PKHeX is open source. If you have questions on how specific encounters are generated, then read the source code. I'm not going to write an entirely separate post for every single encounter, when there is sufficient description/replication in the code that is already available for reading.

How do I get the aroua ticket in japanese emerald?
theSLAYER replied to blazasaur420's topic in Events Help and Questions
Open save in PKHeX, navigate to Event Flags, and open it. Defeated Deoxys - Unchecked Captured Dexoys - Unchecked Don't spawn triangle on Birth Island - Unchecked Received Aurora Ticket from Mystery Gift - Checked Shown Aurora Ticket - Checked Can Travel to Birth Island - Checked Mystery Gift - Checked Try these. I believe you'll need to be in post game (defeated Elite 4, can travel on S.S. Tidal) Note that Aurora Ticket isn't currently released on Japanese Emerald, so your capture will be flagged illegal. -
The ultimate guide on how to run PKHeX on Linux [updated 2/2026]
WonderSquid replied to Taku86's topic in PKHeX
No, just regular click and drag. Important to note it's only a UI/cosmetic bug -- if you try to view the slot something used to be in even if it shows a pokemon there, it'll behave as though it's empty, which it is because you moved the pokemon. Viewing swapped slots that look like they've been cloned also views the pokemon that should be there were the sprites updating correctly. -
Are you holding control when moving slots? That tells the program to clone-drop instead of simply move.

Thought I'd report another UI bug for PKHeX. Moving a Pokemon from one slot to another does move the Pokemon, but often does NOT update the sprite (empty slots will appear to still have Pokemon in them, Pokemon will appear to have been duplicated over other ones or be in two places at once, et cetera). Thanks so much for the OP, nice to know I didn't just screw up my setup somehow. -
Generation 1-7 Shiny Starter Save Files
ThoughtProud commented on bugcatcher1245's file in User Contributed Saves
Just wanted to give a huge thank you for creating this. I used the fire red and leaf green shiny starter saves for the new switch versions, transferred saves with checkpoint save manager on my hacked switch. Worked amazing and I was at 20+ hrs already of shiny hunting. Saved me so much time and now I can start the game. So excited! Thanks again!! YES PEOPLE THESE WORK FOR THE SWITCH VERSIONS IF U ARE JAILBROKEN AND HAVE CHECKPOINT IN HOMEBREW -

PKVault - Centralized pkm storage management & Pokedex app

Ok, So after a bit of playing around with this and setting everything up the way I like it, i have to say, this is an insanely awesome program, and just what I was looking for. I make props for cosplay (but never actually cosplay ironically...), and this is perfect for the PC prop I'm making. Its modeled after the PCs from the gen 1 games, and with this program it'll actually work. Im curious if there's a way to integrate it with Flagbrew's PKSM/GPSS, but that's something I'll fiddle with on my free time. I just want to say, this is an excellent program, and good job! -
ive rng gen3-5 and use a bunch of tools like pokegen and rng reporter while gen6-7 mostly no pid correlation. and now im in switch era in bdsp the legendaries i created no matter what i edit they came out legal which give me sus, i want to edit the height and make them shiny. any tools like plugin roaming8b but for non roaming legendary? which i can input certain parameters to show an output in my TID/SID combo in legend arceus it seems encounter database is my only option since ive read about the cryptoseeds etc. what about eggs in swsh and scvi can i just outright edit height and shininess? no pid correlation and such what about scvi legendaries and paradox how are they generated since i want to gen them to a legal shiny and max height in my TID/SID combo?

PKHeX new update legality errors (contribution page)
chickenrun replied to theSLAYER's topic in PKHeX
Hello, 3 of my pokemon that were caught at the various xd gale of darkness poke spots are flagged as illegal. PKHeX says it's due to a pid+ correlation mismatch It's only the 3 pokemon in the pc box surrounded by other non-flagged poke spot encounters. I'm pretty sure most/all of my poke spot pokemon were caught in the same 1 or 2 sessions of play. PKHeX has not been used to alter anything on the save file. None of the shadow, gift or in-game trade pokemon in other boxes were flagged as illegal. These pokemon were just used as fodder for the purify chamber so I had no incentive to modify their attributes. Sorry for being incompetent but I couldn't figure out how to confirm if specific poke spot pids were obtainable on Eligor 1.12 or the poke spot gen 3 tool on PokeFinder 4.2.1. So it is possible that these pokemon just have flat out unobtainable pid/iv combos. Only explanation I can think of is if dolphin emu causes illegal pid/iv combos due to non-retail rng calls. In that case, would it be an issue specific to emulated poke spot encounters? I didn't encounter this at all on my dolphin emulator colosseum save file and not on xd apart from the poke spot pokemon. Did I just get lucky? Sorry if this emulator discussion part is not appropriate for this thread, I thought it might be relevant. Played on dolphin emulator v2512 with no cheat codes. Screenshots taken from PKHeX 20260227 but I also encountered the same result on 20260228+26 dev build. Flagged pokemon: 0041 - ZUBAT - C6C095882C3A.xk30283 - SURSKIT - 10AAAF3A2C6B.xk30027 - SANDSHREW - 29A9DD848D07.xk3 -

chnapy replied to chnapy's topic in Saves - Tools
Hi, new fix release 1.5.2 focused on pokemon convert system. Converting a pokemon from a game to another one is now fully reworked, fixing most of current issues (errors, legality issues) and massivelly improving consistency and reliability. PKHeX is expected to be used for remaining legality issues if any. Some other fixes are visible in file changelog. including yours @gBina. About the suggestion for homebrew switch app, this is possible but may take some time to do. -
Thank you so much you absolute legend!

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Fortune
WindchildWhimsy replied to WindchildWhimsy's topic in ROM - NDS ROM Hacks
still random, and the regular versions do not show up in the same dungeon in most cases -
Open the program by clicking on the exe. It should not be thinking you're running it from system32.

Is there a way to select the female Pikachu model? I’m aware there’s likely one in game since the partner has a chance to use it. But can the player use the female Pikachu model?
