Is there a tutorial somewhere?

[OddishLover]

I wasn't sure where to post this, so sorry if this is the wrong thread.

I'm interested in PokeGen, PKHEX, and Pokesavs - or however it is that I need to generate my own pokemon.

I currently only have: The new 3DS and Alpha Sapphire.

What equipment and programs do I need to get started?

-Can I buy a regular NDS lite?

- Do I need Pokemon X/Y instead of ORAS?

Please direct me to any tutorials and/or what equipment i need to get started please.

Thank you!

If the new 3DS isn't past 9.2 firmware, you can use NTR CFW and SaveDataFiler with Alpha Sapphire. Pokegen/sav's for Gen IV and V games, it's best to either get a flashcart like R4i, or NDS Adapter Plus. Both devices backup and restore DS carts, a DS lite can be bought on Amazon. Overall, go to gbatemp, it's filled with tutorials and threads on 3DS hacking, more details can be found there.

Thank you.

I'm pretty sure I'm fully updated? I don't know where to check if I am or not. If I am, will the DS lite from amazon suffice equipment wise?

System Settings, lower right corner says the firmware. The DS lite won't suffice if you want to gen and edit Gen VI pokemon (3DS), pre-Gen VI, sure.
