Mismagius Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 I just got a bunch of PKM files, and want to put the Pokemon into my Emerald game (I have the .sav file on my computer). I tried using the following programs to do so: 1. Pokebox GBA - Only opens pokemon files in .gpk or .gbn format. I noticed that both formats are 1KB in size, so I tried simply changing the .pkm in the filename to .gpk. The file seemed to open just fine, but I got a white box instead of a Pokemon, and I don't know how to put it in my PC. 2. Enciclopedia Pokemon - Won't allow me to access my PC boxes; only handles .3gpkm format (which is of a different file size than .pkm, apparently). 3. IR-GTS - I installed it using the .msi file, and installed Python, but the programs all close straightaway when I open them (even when I have no other programs running). Dragging PKM files onto the .py files does the same thing. So yeah, at this point I'm stuck. Can anybody please help me with this? **The PKM files I'm trying to import came from someone else's Emerald game (I have no idea how they managed to export the files in PKM format).
Kaphotics Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 3rd gen games don't use .pkm They should be 84 or 100 bytes, filename extention doesn't matter.
Mismagius Posted August 16, 2011 Author Posted August 16, 2011 Huh, now that's weird... the person who I got the files from said they came from their own Emerald game, so how could they have even exported the files into .pkm format? *looks at the file size* Huh, they're 136 bytes, the same size as the ones from Soul Silver. Maybe the person migrated them first and then exported them to .pkm... Is there any way to change the file size on these PKM files, or am I just stuck with not using them?
Delta Blast Burn Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Use Attached Select "80 Bytes Format" Make sure the correct game is selected (in this case "1986 (U) Emerald ") Create pokemon Press "Samples to Code" Highlight CTRL+C Open hex editor Paste into hex values area save to desktop as *.3gpkm or whatever file format your program uses. Import with program. PokemonMaker_v4.2&.rar
Bond697 Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 3rd gen games do use .pkm. the newest version of enciclopedia pokemon handles .pkm files. the older version uses .3gpkm files which are the same thing. ir-gts can use either for 3rd gen, i think.
