Dear fellow members, Please know that every game update will cause PKHeX to not work with any saves made in that game update. (PKHeX should continue to work for any other game saves, just not for the one from the recent game update.) As such, there is no need to keep posting threads and asking about it. Everyone knows about it. This kind of thing takes time to document and resolve. Probably nobody besides the PKHeX devs will know when PKHeX will be updated. And they have no obligation to give us an expected release date either. So everyone, let's just wait patiently, and check back regularly, alright Cheers. edit: View full article

The Isle of Armor coverage has started, first commit here.

Since downloading the update for Pokemon sword for the new Dlc my save file is flagging as too large to open, not sure if will have to wait for a new pkhex update or not for this to be resolved but felt like it may help others just in cass they run into the same issue i am if it's noted on the forums that it is flagging for that

Edited ROMs can only be played on exploited consoles. Please do not ask (nor private message me) how to obtain/dump/decrypt/unpack/repack ROMs as that is unrelated to the functionality of this program. Download Link At Bottom of Post pkNX is a ROM editor for the Nintendo Switch Pokémon games with tools to edit various game data. All editors displayed are fully functional. Simply feed it a folder (drag/drop or by File->Open) which contains the game romfs & exefs extracted content folders. Edited files will be saved to a patch folder (named after the game's title ID), and will preferentially load edited files before defaulting back to the unmodified files in the romfs/exefs folders. Edited files are only saved when the program closes, and edits in individual windows can be discarded by hitting Close (X) rather than Save. Randomizers available: Trainer Battles (Pokemon / Items / Moves / Difficulty / Classes) Wild Encounters (Species, Level) Personal Data (Pokemon Types / Stats / TM Learnset) Move Learnset (Level Up) Evolutions etc Download the latest version here (click on latest run at the top, then click Artifacts - published, and download the folder) Source code is available on my GitHub.

Yeah I've also got Checkpoint. But, you're right it's technically not a pkhex issue. I appreciate your assistance though. I'll keep poking around and see if I figure something out.

My CFW Switch received the ban hammer on the 8th a few days after the OS update on June 4th. First, I would like to say: it was 100% user error. The instant I saw the OS error pop-up, I knew what I had done wrong. I checked and sure enough, I done Goof'd! Second, I would like to say: Nintendo does not send out commands to a Switch which bricks it. (Nintendo cannot individually mod a single consumer's Switch as it's illegal in many countries.) The ban that Nintendo issues is server side. The hardware ID for your specific Switch is added to a list on the Nintendo servers. The Nintendo servers for eShop (including game updates), system updates, and Nintendo Online Service immediately reject the system and you get an OS error. The Switch becomes semi-bricked for future games which require your system to have newer firmware. For example: the new version v1.2.0 for Pokémon Sword & Shield to support the first DLC Pack now requires the newest Switch firmware. (Ironically, the parnoia of the CFW Community has resulted in tools already existing to update your Switch firmware offline without Nintendo.) Now, in terms of what causes you to get banned, there's no way for Nintendo do detect when cheats are used online. This is especially true for non-first party developers (ie GameFreak who makes Pokémon.) Furthermore, its legally difficult to prove it or enforce it on a console. We are not talking about games like Fornite where the ONLY game running on their servers is Fornite and any anti-cheat methods they are using are reported during game sessions on their servers directlty to them. GameFreak doesn't receive reports from Nintendo from their servers to say "yes" or "no" that player is cheating. I am unable to offer a technical guarantee BUT I believe what the Nintendo servers are doing whenever you access online features which go through Nintendo that the internal game database is scanned. Inside you system is an a database of all titles (with IDs) including updates (with IDs) which have been installed on your system even if never played. Many people have noticed that when you delete a game off your Switch which had an update that when you plug the Game Card back into your system it immediately says you must update to play. (Well, this is to ensure your game matches the version of the last save file so the game knows how to read said save file.) Anways, this feature of remembering updates comes from said database. What you might not realize is that all installed games (aka eShop games) have an ID specific to the Nintendo Account which bought said title. The Nintendo Switch does not support Game Card back-ups so when you "install" a game onto your system from a back-up, it doesn't have an eShop ID. So, when the server scans this database on your console and finds either a cartridge back-up or eShop title which does doesn't match the accounts on the Switch, the system is flagged to be banned. The only way to scrub this database clear is a factory reset. So, after a year, of using my CFW fully with my Nintendo Switch Online account. I made the mistake on June 3rd of playing a backed up copy of Boarderlands with a friend that was visiting. I had Wifi disabled during that entire play session. I did nothing to provoke the ban... except that backed up game remaining in my system's internal database. So, the next day when I told my Switch to do the firmware update naturally, my system was scanned. I would bet anything if on June 3rd, I had factory reset my system... that my CFW Switch would had never been banned.

Thank you to all of you who work to make PKHeX so amazing as it is, I don't have a clue how many hours you all put into it but you all do an amazing job so Thank you! Would just like to say,,,, I don't know why so many are complaining and asking when the update will be released for the new DLC for Sword/Shield can't we all just enjoy the DLC for what it is for now not forgetting the hours game freak have put into making the DLC as well let's all just have fun and enjoy it for now! *This is not me getting at anyone just my opinion and want people to appreciate what the team behind PKHeX are doing! So please everyone just be thankful we have an amazing site like this with all the hard working individuals that are working on the update and be thankful they are already working on it we are all lucky to have this and enjoy it for all the years they have been doing it, brill JOB to all of you!!!! *clap *clap *clap THANK YOU ALL

Exactly my point

Case and point: Do you pay for PkHeX? No? Sit down, be quite and wait

There are stuff that makes it more obvious, and *I think* CFW like Atmosphere does implement stuff to prevent reports from being sent back to server.. But ultimately it's about your device having CFW. Using Hacks in Online games (I think Splatoon hacks was one of them), using Piracy, having impossible themes, these are all things that signify you have CFW, and hence ban.

Everyone please read this

Same issue here. Anyone solved it?

Not to be too nitpicky, but it's "theSLAYER", one word. Probably okay to be shortened if it's a nickname or something, but if you gonna say to full thing, please get it right Next, how am I supposed to give information regarding "when a hypothetical update to PKHeX will drop", when such information does not exist? The "wait patiently" reply I've been giving literally applies to everyone, including me. Now, learn how to have some self-control and wait patiently.

Same here. possibly needs new version of PKHex to fix it

Thank you for everything you do for us! May i ask you if there will be a update for the dlc soon? Looking forward to it ❤

can you upload the save?
