[Majickhat55]

I got my wondercard dump from an independent source which is my own friend who is not even interested into pokemon himself, so yeah.

When in doubt you can always do a quick web search and find countless Japanese blogs like these.

That's good enough for me. Thank you very much.

[theSLAYER]

I don't have proof to show, but I got the wondercard.

Purin is a long time trusted contributor, so I trust Purin

I have a question.

What's the difference between the WC6 and WC6Full format? What is the difference between these formats.

Thank you.

[Kaphotics]

Thank you.

wc6full is the downloaded file from nintendo, which has the following:

list of games that can receive card

distribution text (not the wondercard text)

wc6

the wc6 just has the wc6 data which is stored to the sav.

Basically wc6full is a complete rip of the event data, as it includes the game compatibility list and the verbose text.

[Hacker?pcs]

How can I export wc6full? I have a9lh cfw on sysnand and cartridge OR

Hi guys

How can I get Volcanion event? I've been trying to create one with Pkhex but it's not tradeable.

Simply inject the wondercard to the correct game and lgame region.

If not working,

The Pokemon server itself may not have included volcanion to their whitelist,

Akin to what happened to dragonite a few pages back.

hey there, I use cyber save editor and pkhex, how can I inject .wc6 files into my jap game?

[gundam]

few questions

are wc files taken from players who had the real event?

also what's wrong with wc files in the unconfirmed folder?

can they not be used online?

[theSLAYER]

are wc files taken from players who had the real event?

Most wondercards are provided by trusted contributors or users who were there to collect the event.

It varies between serial code collections by mods, to ripping it out from servers, to wifi events and much more.

There were some wondercards that was provided before I started being a mod here,

but I went ahead to check most, if not all of them.

I also work based on any reports of a card suspected to faked based on conflicting information.

It's easier to confirm legitimacy of present events, harder with older ones.

Also, credits to who provided what wondercard, is in the excel file.

also what's wrong with wc files in the unconfirmed folder?

(U) wondercards that was originally submitted, but removed due to signs of editing.

most of these cards should already have been replaced by a different submissions.

(PS) wondercards taken from Powersaves. While they may look like the real deal,

it is hard to tell, since there's no proof that it was taken from real users who were there to receive the event,

or was hex edited to look like the real thing.

can they not be used online?

Well, if the Pokemon that was generated looks identical to the event Pokemon,

it should be usable online.

(but once again, the rationale for separating them isn't because of online usability, but rather due to origin and legitimacy/legality issues)

[also, it may not be the real deal, but as long as it is legal it can be used online. though to note, Pokemon has horrible online control. even illegal stuff appears once in a while)

cheers man and thank you for your work

the greedy policies of the TPCI/GF prevent most of us folks from getting these events, projects like these give us hope.

No problem!

Indeed!

Well, they've kind of made serial code events a lot more accessible (including online distributions of serial codes), with some events being repeated,

or crossing from local to serial code, or even wi-fi events,

as compared to previous generations.

I mean, I never even got to do one event for Gen III.

Not even one.

Similarly for Gen IV, while I could get access to Wi-Fi events, I didn't manage to do a single local event,

simply because I didn't live in Japan, US or Europe.

So yeah, I understand how much these community projects mean ><

i noticed the wc rar also comes with pokemon red/blue/yellow preoder mew file.

how does one use this file to get mew in pokemon red vc.

i saw the instruction but i am confused and don't know what to do.

To clarify, you can only get the Mew on the Japanese VC of RBYG.

What has to be done next is, if you intend to get the Mew on your Japanese VC pokemon Red,

you need to trade it over, because the Mew is on Pokemon Green.

(the file is a Pokemon VC JPN Green Save).

there is no japanese save editor that allows ripping and injecting of pokemon (not that I can find)

Alternatively:

Extract your japanese Red save to your PC

Run your game on an emulator

use this code (at your own risk)

Code reverse engineered from http://glitchcity.info/wiki/index.php/Pok%C3%A9mon_Red,_Green,_Blue_and_Yellow_%28JP%29_GameShark_codes

based on the Mew structure I discussed here: https://projectpokemon.org/forums/showthread.php?33343-Gen-VI-Event-Contribution-Archived-Posts-and-Discussions&p=213690&viewfull=1#post213690

Should work for all JPN gen I versions

it replaces your first pokemon in party with the Mew

haven't tested this myself

EDIT: I tested, and the code works on Pokemon Green Japanese, on VBA (using gameshark)

[gundam]

oh that's a shame. so it doesn't work on NA version huh.

side note your emulator method, could it be used on NA RBY VC versions?

[theSLAYER]

Nope.

fundamentally, the problem lies in the way the games itself was programmed.

When the Japanese games was converted to English, they pretty much overwrote the Japanese text to English,

messed up the layout (including usage of control characters), created more space as English names are longer,

so back in Gen I, due to this, trading and battling causes game crashes and looping.

So the Japanese Mew is simply not compatible with non-japanese games, no matter how you try to take a crack at it.

(of course, you can try to create an English version of it, but it won't be legal any more, cause it is a JPN-only event, at this point)

you may want to update Pkhex, seems like it hasn't included the Volcanion wondercard yet.

Also, it needs to appeared to received from trade (for memory) (though location does not need to change)

Pkhex simply checks of its legal or not.

Does not leave data regarding the checks on the pokemon

yes,but since pkhex in not update for volcanion event is normal he still count as a cheat right?

[theSLAYER]

Erm, how should I say this.

Usage of wondercards are technically cheating.

If you got the Volcanion from the wondercard, on the correct region or with the settings right, it'll be legal.

Pkhex updates may not be as frequent as wondercard updates.

I vaguely remember Kaphotics mentioning there's a way to import wondercards into the hack checks,

I just can't remember how, specifically.

i know they are cheat...i mean..legal for pkhex.

You can put the wondercards in a "wc6" folder in the same directory as pkhex.exe to update the legality check manually. If I recall correctly, there's also a way to export all wc6s included in pkhex in that folder.

(Sorry, wrong quote)
