What I do is run atmosphere for 9.1.0 and change over to customer firmware. Then I'll run a backup in Checkpoint and then use FTPD to transfer the save to my PC and use PkHex to make changes. Finally I run Checkpoint again and Restore the changes to my Switch save. I open up Sword/Shield and double check everything took effect, Once I know that my changes are in game, then I'm done. I turn my Switch off. Not asleep, not a restart, OFF. While it's off I put back all my stuff I needed to run atmosphere (USB-C cable, jig, etc). Then I turn it back on, I go to Settings and double check I'm back on stock firmware 9.1.0. Then I'm safe to get into the game and go online. Hope that helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wadsilog Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 i do all my editing (all passed legal check in pkhex) on my airplane mode sysnand then use checkpoint to move the edited save, then reboot to ofw and voila more shinies for me... been doing it for 3 months now and never had any issues at all.

Just PKHex and pkm or other CFW features as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say 90% of my pre-ban CFW time, my switch was either dead or in airplane mode. other than that I used it for a GBA emulator. I was banned the week before SW/SH came out after leaving the switch completely powered off for over a month. I didn't set up an emunand so N could still detect my modified sysnand the few times I was online. Even when I was on OFW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELY M. Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I just use legit game carts and clean atmosphere emunand (zero pirated games) and edizon. I trade straight from my modded switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mishimeow Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 So... My console was bannes yesterday. Im buying another tomorrow so I can play online again. Does anyone know if I can SAFELY trade pokemon from my banned switch via local trade to my new unbanned switch? If so, would it make a difference if the traded pokemon are from a free copy of shield on cfw trading to my legit copy of sword on my new ofw switch?

baumaffe Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Another question. I can’t select my pkhex team (pkhex said legal) for the ranked battles. Is there a way to fix this? i traded them from my usum file to bank and home then sword. and could I get banned for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will need to either breed them in Galar or edit their met data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extracting save file might be considered as low impact but restoring file possesses a risk (could be low or high depending on what you modify). Any other forms of piracy, custom themes, illegal software, etc. are extremely risky if you go online. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theSLAYER Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Just now, italoarcos said: Pkhex made pkmn gains the Galar origin mark? Only if their origin is Sword or Shield. (the markings, whether is it GB or Pentagon or Clover or GO, is based on origin game) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
