theSLAYER Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 1. Load up your save for PKHeX 2. Add a mon 3. Save the save in PKHeX. 4. Restore the save using Checkpoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akame Posted January 26, 2020 Author Share Posted January 26, 2020 Can I get more explanation please? Should I download the Pokémon and drag them to the file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theSLAYER Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 You can create them, or you can download PK8 files. Your choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akame Posted January 26, 2020 Author Share Posted January 26, 2020 Okay thanks so I will download them and drag them to the file? Is that the right thing to do? Also which gen is possible to add in the game? I’m a big fan of gen 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also which gen is possible to add in the game? I’m a big fan of gen 4 Gen 4 files (wc4 or pk4) can be added into any save from Gen 4 to Gen 8, tho Gen 8 (SWSH) will have some limitations, depending on what mon wasn't cut.

Akame Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 Can I do something about Pokémon that can’t be added in the game? It’s saying “it’s not in the origin game” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theSLAYER Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 What Pokemon were you trying to import? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akame Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 I tried it with one Pokémon (chimchar) but I get automatically an error cause of his attack(which I didn’t add but the file itself) and the error Pokémon not from origin in this game.Its not only Pokémon from gen 4 even the example Pokémon eternatus too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theSLAYER Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Chimchar isn’t programmed into SWSH, so you obviously can’t add it in. if Eternatus gets an error in SWSH, then you created a bad hack. You can choose to ignore it and add it in anyway (ignoring the errors), or use an existing file and drag it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theSLAYER Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 you can import previous gen PKX into SWSH saves, but they're all be illegal, as Pokemon HOME (the one and only legit way to bring mons into SWSH) isn't out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
