Trying to view diploma again

Recommended Posts

I appreciate all the work done on this website (my save file would still be corrupted without this site's help!) so i just want to make a shout out to the programmers on here.

I was wondering if it is possible to reset the event of receiving your national diploma in Heartgold (or previous generations, but Heartgold is the game I'm currently playing) using PKHeX.  I can see that there are certain events that can be reset and edited, but I did not notice the diploma event.  I tried to see if I could delete one Pokemon (Ratatta and Raticate specifically) from my box and Pokedex, and catch it again, but that didn't work.  If anyone has insight into this particular manner I would appreciate the help!

If there is an event flag for this, that would be great. I'm not seeing that available though 

What you can do is find a HeartGold savefile at someplace like GameFaqs, fill the pokedex with PKHeX, make a copy the edited savefile, receive the diploma with an emulator, then do a before/after comparison in PKHeX's "Event Flags" tab. It will pinpoint the flag that triggers it.

okay thank you! and i was able to get the diploma using your save.

There does not seem to be any difference between before and after receiving the diploma unfortunately...it may just not be an option in the PKHex program at the moment.  I can attach the .dst files before and after receiving the diploma if anyone wants to analyze.

It is nice seeing the diploma again at least :)

dst files are (d)esmume save (st)ates, not save files. The save states are specific to the emulator version & ROM you're running, so it's not guaranteed to be loaded. You'd have to attach save files instead (sav/dsv).
