Hey everyone,

I just loaded up my ten year-old XD:Gale of Darkness save file. While looking at the Shadow Monitor in the in-game PDA, and I noticed that it displays:

  • Whether the Pokemon was caught or not (and where).
  • Whether it was purified.
  • What gender it is.
  • What kind of pokeball was used.
  • Which box it's in.

Given it provides this information, I would assume the game stores the PID of each and every shadow Pokemon caught in a separate part of the save file for the Shadow Monitor to cross-reference and see if that Pokemon is still present in the games PC/Party.

If so, would it be possible to view/extract these PID's?

The reason I ask is that I lost a lot of these shadow Pokemon (including Lugia) and would like to recreate them using the original PID's.

Thanks in advance for any advice  :)

Yeah you can probably extract them if you play with PKHeX's source code.

ShadowInfo = new ShadowInfoTableXD(Data.Skip(Shadow).Take(subLength[7]).ToArray());

From ShadowInfo you can spit out each entry's Species and PID values.
