Changing skin tone with PKHeX

[bbcream]

I was wondering if anyone knew how to change the character's skin tone!

Thanks!

Be specific which game you are referring to.

For Sword/Shield, the Block tool allows you to change the file hash for all of the player models.

I just edited my character's skin and thought I should share this with others...

After opening your Sword or Shield save file

1) Click on the SAV tab

2) Select Block Data

3) Under the Block Key dropdown, select *Object MyStatus

4) Put the values of the skin tone you want that match your character's gender under Skin and MomSkin below

Male:

Skin: 15750773674524975186

MomSkin: 16295240065100649920

Skin: 15750772575013346975

MomSkin: 16295241164612278131

Skin: 15750771475501718764

MomSkin: 16295242264123906342

Skin: 15750770375990090553

MomSkin: 16295243363635534553

 

Female:

Skin: 15683315162178948477

MomSkin: 66653365124950412

Skin: 15683311863644063844

MomSkin: 66654464636578623

Skin: 15683312963155692055

MomSkin: 66655564148206834

Skin: 15683309664620807422

MomSkin: 66656663659835045

 

 

NOTICE: If you changed a female player's skin tone, you will end up with a bugged (unchangeable) starting model of that character! To fix this, simply go to a Salon (earliest is in Motostoke) and pay 1000 for a makeup change, select the lipstick tab and make ANY selection then confirm!

Here's an example:

 

There are no problems if you're changing a male player's skin tone, so you don't have to worry about this.

just those changes are possibly not enough. read what this user went through here:

I had the issue with my character but it was easily fixed by going to the salon and doing my makeup just as @Acroblade said!
