Hi all, I put together a RAR file of the new transfer pokemon for those that can gen them into their save file. Most show as legal although a few of them are still flagged as illegal (Solgaleo, Lunala, Necrozma, the ones we know are still not valid online). Remember to use at your own risk. If anyone manages to make the illegal ones legal again, host up the pk8 file so I can grab it. Thanks and enjoy. (files illegal, wrong origin game and lcoations, removed)

PKHeX is a save editor for core-series Pokémon games. With it, users can manipulate various save files including: .sav, .dsv, .dat, .gci, .raw, and .bin types. PKHeX can also read and write: .pk files, which are individual Pokémon files, and .pgt, .pcd, .pgf, .wc, which are Mystery Gift files. Version 20.02.14 of PKHeX has been released, with support for Pokemon Home. Please pay attention to the change log regarding legality. Change log: Download | FAQ | Support Forum View full article

Hi, Kurt, just wanted to clarify something with you. Given what you said it seems relatively safe to go from Gen 7 -> HOME -> Gen 8 since Home doesn't assign more than one Tracker Value, but what if you did the reverse? If you genned, for example Five Zekrom directly into SwSh without a HOME Tracker value, and then uploaded them into HOME, and then transferred them back into your save file, would that be safe? Or is Genning Pokemon that must have come from Gen 7-> Gen 8 directly into SwSh (meaning they'd have no tracker) and then uploading them to Home not recommended? Sorry if your post means just that (I.e. Gen 8 to HOME for a tracker value). I just took it to mean for Gen 7 -> HOME. Apologies if I misunderstood it. Also, another question, you said that duplicate HOME Trackers are deleted if they're in HOME, does that apply to every Pokemon in all of the database, or just ones on the same account? Because I cloned my Gen 7 pokemon that were transferred from HOME legitimately and gave them out, so was just curious how the identical tracker thing would work across multiple people's accounts if they all had them in their HOME account.

Transfer them from gen7. HOME doesn't assign duplicate trackers, so clones will automatically be differentiated when assigned a new tracker.

Anything that has been stored in HOME will have a tracker value assigned to it by the server. Anything that must have been stored in HOME before arriving at its current format (eg PK7->PK8) must have a tracker value assigned. Creating a random tracker will not match what the server has (it's not in its database), and files without a tracker get one automatically assigned. Pokemon with the same tracker are deleted; only the first one is kept. It is recommended to let HOME assign you a tracker for all your custom creations, and to clear it from anything you clone.

While online checks are already non-existent for the most part, local trades have ZERO checks.

that only affects GTS and surprise/wonder trades. I've said this many times already, but the Shiny Solgaleo and Shiny Lunala lockout isn't just trades, but online raids as well. It's a server side issue.

I'm not sure if the present version of PKHeX emulated transfers properly. It might miss some hidden values that HOME may perform during transfer. After all, PKHeX was made before HOME comes out. Just use the files that we've uploaded.

you need to do some tweak first

While I don't see any evidence of a crackdown, bringing unreleased mons online is as stupid as pirating SM and using GTS when it's not out. They probably can monitor traffic pre-HOME release, but once HOME is out, as there millions of users worldwide, it's unlikely it'll stick out like a sore thumb. Plus, talking about duping, it probably is hard to monitor when there's so many PID variation out there (and that is ignoring the fact that some mons are natural clones. For example, some in-game trades have fixed PID. They can't possibly come up with a comprehensive list. They can't fault everyone...) Except we can't prove if there's any truth to that. For example, Pokémon HOME allows Eternal Floette, something that was never ever distributed, to be transferred in. Wouldn't this be a red flag, and an easy thing to stop? While not related to HOME entirely, but related to trades, maliciously hacked a certain mon to cause the game to crash. Yet, this isn't stopped either. With these extreme examples in mind, it's hard to concretely prove there's proper hack checks. Yes, there is a limited server side check, but it's not reliable. It's stopping Shiny Solgaleo and Shiny Lunala from being used online, even though it was legitimately received from the event... Well if anyone did, and they feel like it, they'll tell you.

is this tradable online? updated : it is tradable online --merged-- Another update, the Lunala from your files can't be traded. I did some tweak and it's now tradable. File below, as usual use at your own risk. (file probably illegal, also removed)

Make yall own mons its not that hard lol The stuff is out there apply yourself lol

dude you gotta wait Pokemon Home came out 24 hours ago

Of course PkHex gives an error. It's not been updated yet.

First, merged thread, you created an unnecessary duplicate, tho I understand you might not see it that way. I'm locking this thread (again), any further responses please go to the link I've given at the end of this post. Hopefully with the points addressed below, you'll see how I pretty much answered you. Anyhow, I'm breaking down my answer(s) so you better understand it WHY it happened, WHEN it happened, and WHO caused the error HOW to fix it WHAT to do to prevent future issues WHERE to go if you have further questions. That's the 5W1H response I gave you. It should have been sufficient. Now to repeat myself: If you have any further things to ask, ask in this thread.

ARE people getting banned though? #FakeNews?

Hey I pmed you to help bro. I got 2 files for you
