Hello all,

For those who do not know me, I studied under a video game development program in the early 2000's. While I did not end up pursuing development as a career, I still actively apply the knowledge to trying to understand what's under the hood of the franchise that first made me want to go into video game development: Pokémon. I am not a code hunter. I am more of enthusiast who enjoys sharing this information with the masses so we all can maintain a database of LIVE RAM Edits for  the insight and befenfit of the community as a whole to increase the overall understanding of what is and isn't possible with the games.

The Atmosphere CFW OS for CFW uses a built-in cheat app called Edizon which means every single CFW Switch owner with Atmosphere OS are forced to use it. The homebrew app Edizon does not allow for a manual ON/OFF of individual codes which means people interested in experimenting have to maintain their own database of codes and go through the hassle of deleting and re-adding codes to the .TXT file for the codes for the game on a FREQUENT basis. The Atmosphere OS Live requires codes to be located under a specific system folder which is sorted into folders under the TitleID of each game with separate .TXT file for each BuildID (aka version of the game):

A Few Words about LIVE RAM Editing in Sword & Shield:

In order to accomodate new features in v1.2.0, the stored memory active in RAM witnessed drastic changes. The change from v1.1.1 to v1.2.0 shifted the location in memory of all the ENCOUNTERS handling BUT thankfully the entirety of it was moved together. The memory shift was found and applied to all the existing ENCOUNTERS related codes.

The Sword & Shield titles ONLY have error handling for "impossible" Pokémon. There are no such "legality" checks built into the mainline Pokémon games furthermore GameFreak currently has no such services immplimented on the Pokémon Home servers. There is an error handler for Pokémon encountering mons outside of the National Dex range which drops in a Pikachu called "Egg." There is also an error handler for illegal gendered Pokémon (for example: Female Mew OR Genderless Charmander) which is displayed in-game by replacing the 2D sprite shown in menus or on Raid preview screens with a 2D sprite of a black PokéBall symbol.

Since there's no error handling for "legit" Pokémon, the game is not tracking for LIVE RAM Edits. This means there's no error handling to correct a mistake you make (like that Genderless Charmander) and as such the game will allow it to occur.

When a new Pokémon is encountered (whether it's in-game trade, wild, Raid, or even newly discovered Egg), there's a module which puts together all of the pieces of data which make up that Pokémon in a single sector of memory. The single module uses the EXACT same sector of memory for ALL types of encountered Pokémon from in-game Gift Pokémon to Fossil Pokémon, from eggs to Pokémon in tall grass. The module checks for any all the known (predetermined information like how in-game Gift Pokémon have pre-determined IVs) and plugs those values in. Next, the module randomizes any of the unknowns (like Nature when not Synconized OR Ability two ability mons.) After assembling the COMPLETED the module sends the whole Pokémon back to the game's code to use. Since all Pokémon are passing throught the same sector of memory, we can apply LIVE RAM Edits/codes to set the results of one or more charactistics which over-writes randomization and predetermined values. (Once again, the game will not attempt to correct any mistakes you make like assigning a Hidden Ability to a Route 1 wild Pokémon.)

Since there's currently neither the mainline games nor Home are preforming any legality checking, you can VERY easily make ILLEGAL Pokémon. LIVE RAM Editing should be something in which is not taking lightly to ensure no ILLEGAL Pokémon spawn in-game as a result. While the game may not show your mistakes now, PKHeX will and down the road one day maybe even Pokémon Home will but when that happens chances are the mon will be deleted from the server.

Everyone here is against the creation and sharing of ILLEGAL Pokémon so keep that in mind!
