How do I convert *.pkx to *.ekx, x being 4, 5, 6, or 7? I'm trying to write a program in Visual Basic, and I need it to be able to encrypt *.pkx files into *.ekx files. The problem is I can't figure out how.

Gen IV and V
Read up on PKM structure, and see checksum.


And how the system got minor updates in Gen VI and VII

I had looked at those, it’s that I don’t know how to apply the formulas written there.

The shuffling order formula is basically:
dim order as integer = (pid >> (13) And 31) Mod 24

and the horrible implementation for order shuffling I did a long time ago:

Spoiler 

Select Case order
            Case 0
                firstblock = "A"
                secondblock = "B"
                thirdblock = "C"
                fourthblock = "D"
            Case 1
                firstblock = "A"
                secondblock = "B"
                thirdblock = "D"
                fourthblock = "C"
            Case 2
                firstblock = "A"
                secondblock = "C"
                thirdblock = "B"
                fourthblock = "D"
            Case 3
                firstblock = "A"
                secondblock = "D"
                thirdblock = "B"
                fourthblock = "C"

Thanks.

Now, how do I use the formula, X[n+1] = (0x41C64E6D * X[n] + 0x6073), what do I put for X[n] and X[n+1]?

These are the functions I have relating to rand and the seed generation:

Spoiler 

Public seed As UInt32

Public Sub srnd(ByVal newSeed As UInt32)
        seed = newSeed
End Sub

Public Function rand() As UInt32
        seed = (((&H41C64E6D * seed) + &H6073)) And &HFFFFFFFF
        Return seed >> 16
End Function

 


So at every instance that you block xor rand(), the rand will give the updated random number as per the game's RNG.

I'm pretty sure I got help for this a long time ago, but I can't remember from who.
In any case, that is how it is done :)

(edit: I think I use the srnd function relating to checksum)

Is seed the checksum?

So, where does the checksum come in?

here, Lemme show you:

Spoiler 


    Public Function encrypt(ByVal pkm() As Byte)
      	'variables here
		'stuff happens here	
      	
      	'such as Shuffle the blocks using the block shuffling algorithm above. 
      
      	'Seed the PRNG with the checksum (let X[n] be the checksum), 
        srnd(checksum)
        
      	'finally, Sequentially, for each 2-byte word Y from 0x08 to 0x87, apply the transformation: unencryptedByte = Y xor rand() 
		'example:    

        Select Case firstblock
            Case "A"
                While z < 16
                    byter(z) = blocka(z) Xor rand()
                    z = z + 1
                End While
          
      	'remainder of code
        Return pkm
    End Function

 


so srnd(checksum) uses checksum as seed.
Rand() will call a new value.
and remainder rand()s in the function doesn't need to be reseeded using the checksum.

edit:
so what I'm trying to say is that the variable seed isn't always the checksum.
You only seed the checksum upon initial encryption of that particular Pokemon (for it's first block),
and it new result will be reused to seed the RNG for the remainder 3 blocks.

 

I can give you my full function to refer to if needed.

So like this:

  

'block shuffling stuff

srnd(chksum)
rand()

That's the main gist. Seed the RNG first with checksum srnd(checksum), then apply transformation byte xor rand.

When you read the wiki, it says
" Sequentially, for each 2-byte word Y from 0x08 to 0x87, apply the transformation "

So you're not just rand() once, you'll have to rand() for every byte you xor against.

@Regnum

This is my encrypt code.
Since this was made years back, there's probably definitely better ways to optimize the code,
so you can keep that in mind if you're gonna adapt it.

    Public Function encrypt(ByVal pkm() As Byte)
        Dim pid As UInt32 = 0
        Dim checksum As UInt16 = 0
        pid = BitConverter.ToUInt32(pkm, 0)
        checksum = BitConverter.ToUInt16(pkm, 6)
        Dim order As Integer = (pid >> (13) And 31) Mod 24
        Dim firstblock As String
        Dim secondblock As String
        Dim thirdblock As String
        Dim fourthblock As String

        firstblock = 0
        secondblock = 0
        thirdblock = 0
        fourthblock = 0
        Select Case order
            Case 0
                firstblock = "A"
                secondblock = "B"
                thirdblock = "C"
                fourthblock = "D"
            Case 1
                firstblock = "A"
                secondblock = "B"
                thirdblock = "D"

I keep getting a System.OverflowException at the Select Case firstblock.

you may need to set your own variables public and correct in other instances besides the function.

How are you reading the file, and what variable is handling the Pokemon file you're reading
(I'm getting the feeling you haven't loaded the file)

The file is being loaded with: 

Dim myFile = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
Dim pkx() As Byte = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllBytes(myFile)
Dim ekx = encrypt(pkx)

Not that I'm very good at programming, but maybe you wanna
Dim ekx() as byte = encrypt(pkx)

Maybe also want to do a "if then" logic tests in your routine,
as Gen 6/7 encrypt is gonna be different from the Gen5 routine I showed you.

I tried that, but the error persists. I then tried: 

Private Sub toEnc()
	Dim myFile As String = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
	Dim myBytes As Byte() = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllBytes(myFile)
	Dim txtTemp As New System.Text.StringBuilder()
	For Each myByte As Byte In myBytes
		txtTemp.Append(myByte.ToString("X2"))
	Next
	RichTextBox1.Text = txtTemp.ToString()

	Dim myData = RichTextBox1.Text
	Dim pkx As Byte() = HexStringToByteArray(myData)
	Dim ekx() As Byte = encrypt(pkx)
End Sub

Private Shared Function HexStringToByteArray(ByRef strInput As String) As Byte()
        Dim length As Integer
        Dim bOutput As Byte()
        Dim c(1) As Integer
        length = strInput.Length / 2
        ReDim bOutput(length - 1)
        For i As Integer = 0 To (length - 1)
            For j As Integer = 0 To 1
                c(j) = Asc(strInput.Chars(i * 2 + j))
                If ((c(j) >= Asc("0")) And (c(j) <= Asc("9"))) Then
                    c(j) = c(j) - Asc("0")
                ElseIf ((c(j) >= Asc("A")) And (c(j) <= Asc("F"))) Then
                    c(j) = c(j) - Asc("A") + &HA
                ElseIf ((c(j) >= Asc("a")) And (c(j) <= Asc("f"))) Then
                    c(j) = c(j) - Asc("a") + &HA
                End If
            Next j
            bOutput(i) = (c(0) * &H10 + c(1))
        Next i
     Return (bOutput)
End Function

before the select case, get your program to prompt a message box, and display the PID values.
(to ensure that the program is indeed reading the file)

It gave me 0x35C7F1EE, but the pk5 file in HxD says 0xEEF1C735.

Remember that the data is in little endian and needs to be swapped. At least that part is more of less working properly.

now, slowly increment/push forward to see which sub or function isn't working

I tried incrementing forward as you said and found that byter(z) = blocka(z) Xor rand() is equal to byter(z) = 0xAA60CFF and byter() is UInt16. 

So I changed byter(z) = block_(z) Xor rand() to byter(z) = CType((block_(z) Xor rand()), System.UInt16), now the function rand() is giving me the System.OverflowException error.

So you changed it.. Because it was giving you a value?
