SWSH Blocks and Save Research

[theSLAYER]

Note: before we begin, this isn't a thread to ask for stuff or request stuff.
It's purely for documenting the info.

Event/Promoted Raids and Dynamax Crystal data

Spoiler

Lengths stay the same (thus far) across versions.
drop_rewards (length 0x426C)
dai_encount (length 0x1241C) [Dynamax crystal encounters]
bonus_rewards (length 0x116C4)
normal_encount (length 0x23D4) [Event/Promoted Raid Nest on Galar Mainland]
normal_encount_rigel1 (length 0x23D4) [Event/Promoted Raid Nest on IoA]
normal_encount_rigel2 (length 0x23D4) [Event/Promoted Raid Nest on CT]

These files are exact copies of the filename found in the BCAT.

*Object KDropRewards is for drop_rewards
*Object KDaiEncount is for dai_encount
*Object KBonusRewards is for bonus_rewards
*Object KNormalEncount is for normal_encount
*Object KNormalEncountRigel1 is for normal_encount_rigel1
11615F45 - 0359 Object 0x23D4 is for normal_encount_rigel2

 

I simply had to place the existing those files into a fresh save with hacked in Dynamax Crystals, and those Crystals appear to spawn the mon just fine.
Note: We have uploaded the wild area event files. You can check our Event Gallery for it.

 

also tested shiny values for normal_encount
00 - Default
01 - Cannot Be Shiny
02 - Forced Square Shiny
03 - No Notable Purpose
04 - No Notable Purpose
05 - testing
06 - No Notable Purpose
etc.

 

Download Rules data

Spoiler

While the download rules does not appear to have a fixed block, they are all the same size: 0x2304

The blocks that occupied the rules are:
*Object KDownloadRules1
*Object KDownloadRules2
*Object KDownloadRules3
*Object KDownloadRules4
*Object KDownloadRules5
*Object KDownloadRules6

I simply had to place the existing 6 rules on a fresh save into those 6 blocks, and those 6 rules became usable on Link Battles.

While it is presently not known, these blocks share the same size:
*Object KDownloadRulesU1
*Object KDownloadRulesU2

Official Competition Data

Spoiler

Any text that Official Competitions will use, are in block *Object KOfficialCompetition

Once the competition ends and you try to view it (process of unlocking Mystery Gift tied to the competition), it will unlock the battle team you used, and this block is purged.

 

Fashion

Quote

Block key: *Object Fashion

Note: These are only potentially the changes, for Male save.
The bytes I documented seems accurate; the clothing gets unlocked for a fresh save.
For some scenarios, you gotta flip the binaries for existing values.

More to come.. maybe?

note: this page isn’t a FAQ. Go to the appropriate thread for that.

Update:
0E615A8C - 0255 Object 0x23D4 contains normal_encount_rigel

Edit: I've been informed that, depending on whether your save took the path 1.0.0 -> 1.2.0 or 1.0.0 -> 1.1.0 -> 1.2.0,
the key ID name may actually be different.

In that case, look for a Object 0x23D4

For my save file,

6F66951C, 6F669A35, and 6F6696CF is the nat dex number of the Legendary Pokemon saved for the Max Lair

and changing these from bool2 to bool1 lets me catch these legends again in Max Lair

Solgaleo - F75B3E5F - 5001 Bool
Xerneas - F75830BB - 4995 Bool 

Edit:

These are the rest of the legends:

The TRUE ones are those checked manually the rest are most likely correct though

My save file is Sword (1.0 -> 1.2 -> 1.3 Save) btw

Spiritomb to appear overworld via having players interacted online

31A13425 - 1047 UInt32 0 Or
*UInt32 KPlayersInteractedOnline
(Full name in block editor, may depend on PKHeX version)

Value 32 or higher for this block, then interact with the gravestone for Spiritomb.
This value basically stores interacted with players online.

Note editing for Legendaries in Dynamax Adventures

6F669A35 - 2226 UInt32 0 or
*UInt32 KMaxLairSpeciesID1Noted
(Full name in block editor, may depend on PKHeX version)

You basically edit in the Pokedex ID. And you can only edit in entries that can be found in Dynamax entries.
If you edit in the ID of other species, the lady just treats it as tho there's no notes for that slot.

[Block names and numbers may differ if your save performed a different jump from v1.2->v1.3, for example v1.0->v1.3]

• CB135C68 KSoniaSwordProgression // 0 = None Shown, 1 = Cobalion Shown, 2 = Terrakion Shown, 4 = Virizion Shown
• A097DE31 KKeldeoInOverworld // Bool1 = Spawned, Bool2 = Not Spawned
• 1895E693 KSpiritombInOverworld // Bool1 = Spawned, Bool2 = Not Spawned

It appears that one can't just change KPlayersInteractedOnline to 32 and let Spritomb spawn, 1895E693 must be changed as well.
