Those moves are not HMs. HMs are Fly, Surf, Cut, Strength, Flash, Rock Smash, Waterfall, and Dive in Hoenn Gen 3. Those moves you listed above are able to be transferred without any problems to future generations, as they aren't HMs. Up until Generation 6, there was no way to transfer pokemon with HM moves forward. (You get an error message that you must be delete the HM move) So all surfing events for the Pikachu line from.... - Gen 1 (no way to connect to Pokemon Stadium legally on the Virtual Console releases, and no way to transfer from the original catridges) - Gen 2 (see above) - Gen 3 (Cannot send to Gen 4 without deleting the HM) - Gen 4 (Cannot send to Gen 5 without deleting the HM) Are unable to know surf legally. If you want a Pikachu that has surf on Gen 6+ (there were no events for Gen 5 to my knowledge), it has to be one of the following: Legal only on Korean 3ds: Legal only on Japanese 3ds: Legal on any region 3ds:

To add on to @Britty's point, the pokemon files listed, the origin region 3DS and language must be set appropriately. It can be traded to games of other regions, so the limiting factor is the origin region and language. Also fun fact: Because one of those Pikachu's can be sent up to SM, you can own a flying&surfing alolan raichu XD

This post is mostly aimed at the few(?) of you that actually use this tool so you know what it is. I'll make it clear now that I'm only working on the BW functionality of this tool. GBA stuff can be done by someone else or I'll do it eventually but I'm doing this on my free time and when I have absolutely nothing else to do so don't hold your breath. Also the way the program is made makes it impossible to use some words at times so I've done my best to abbreviate them without losing the meaning. I'm assuming you already have grabbed PokeStock from the author's site so replace his files with mine in their respective directories and enjoy! As always if you find a typo or some error and care enough to get it fixed leave a reply or shoot me a PM.

Firstly, I hope this is the right thread. I'm studying software development in school, and I want to get into ROM hacking. Eventually I'd like to make a full hack, but I figured I'd try to walk before I run. I want to try adding areas like hidden grottos to HGSS, then maybe work my way up to an oasis/hidden town of sorts. Does anyone know if this is possible? Can I use SDSME to make it happen, or am I going to have to get creative? I've tried to find info online and in these forums but can't find anything for gen4. It looks like AdvancedMap can be used for GBA title, which I COULD do, but Heart Gold is my favorite title. That's why I want to start there.

Oh right, @theSLAYER's post reminded me of something else. if you're injecting the wondercard, make sure you're doing it on the correct version too. For example the Flying and Surfing Pikachu: As you can see, XY is not listed there. That means that serial code would not have worked on those versions. For another example, the '14 pikachu cannot be on ORAS as the games were not released yet when the event happened. ((And man, I'm upset with myself now for only getting one serial code for those pikachu when the event was on-going. An alolan Raichu with surf and fly would've been awesomeeeeee))

Despite your PKHeX not being up to date, the issue is that you're trying to transfer a Pokemon that knows an HM move from gen 3 to a later generation. In all cases of transferring a Pokemon from gen 3 to gen 4 all HM moves must be forgotten from the NPC that can make Pokemon forget moves. However, in your case the Pichu would have to forget Surf in gen 3 to transfer, but since Pichu or its evolutionary line can't learn Surf through from HM it can never legally relearn the move after transfer.
