SID and TID

[Cdonkey]

I hope this has not been asked before and I have just missed it.

 

But I want to change the OT that all my Pokémon are linked to, but I wanted to check if the SId and TID are linked to the name, or can they be just random?

The trainer name and ID values are not tied in any way, but there are some TID and SID combinations that cannot exist in certain games, but aside from those cases, they can be random.

If in doubt, use an RNG calculator for the game you're altering the IDs of, and make sure that it's a combination that's possible to obtain, or just start a new savefile and copy the IDs you get from that.
