A personal request for someone with a homebrewed switch!

[glitchchan]

Hello! I apologize if this isn't the right place to post this... I have a special personal request of someone with a homebrewed switch who uses PkHex! 

I have an extremely beloved Gastrodon named Sweetheart in SwSh who I adore more than anything! However, I caught her in SwSh, but I play a lot more of Gen 4 than anything else! I was wondering if someone might be able to help me... if I traded her to you and you loaded your save up in PkHex, would it be possible to send Sweetheart's pk8 file to me so I can put her in my Gen 4 games? And then afterwards trade her back to me!

I know this is a bit of a weird request, but she's one of my most beloved Pokemon - I really want to be able to put her in my Pokewalker and take her on strolls with me every day!

Thank you so much! This is her btw

There isn't an official transfer method to go backwards from pk8 all the way to pk4. At best, you'd have to fake the data to have a similar encounter detail and matching trainer data.

I recommend finding a sysbot that allows you to dump pk8 files, then you can manage how you want a pk4 from that.

@Kaphotics Would it be possible to directly copy her file from a Pokemon SwSh save file loaded up in PkHex? I've copied one Pokemon to all my games between Gen 4-7 with no issues just by clicking and dragging, but is SwSh data handled differently? Thank you so much for the info btw, sorry that I'm not super knowledgeable about this!

1. Get pk8

2. Open your gen4 sav in PKHaX

3. Drop pk8 into your gen4 save file.

4. Modify data as per your preference.
