I wanted to start a thread to discuss any issues with the pkhex plugin DynamaxAdventureReset. List upcoming features, and get feedback from people that use it. If you have any questions feel free to ask it here, make suggestions, and let me know if you have any issues. Current Implemented Features version 1.1 Reset the caught flag for Dynamax Adventures. *NEW * Change the noted pokemon @ the scientist and modify Peonia's hint. Regi Reset (Reset which new Regi you decided to catch) Swords of Justice Caught reset Planned Features Other event flags * We want to make sure to say a big thanks to the PKHeX crew for all their hard work on the main PKHeX application thus making this plugin possible.

Yeah that’s what I’ll most likely do, appreciate all the help

Issue has now been patched with 1.0.4.4 thank you for reporting this! The latest should be live on our github in about ~10ish minutes (you can fix the issue in the meantime by forcing legality corrects)

Thank you for contributing with a more user-friendly way to edit the flags. I want to report a potential bug tho. I have not caught Keldeo yet, but the plugin says it detected a potentially illegal status, and it check Keldeo as caught. The rest seems to work just fine. If it can be useful, I had Keldeo transfered from Home, idk if the bug is due to that.

You're the best, Slayer.

Masuda method works on language, not region.

@theSLAYER Will do, appreciate the advice

Create a folder named plugins in the same directory as pkhex. copy the DynamaxAdventureReset.dll file from the zip file into the plugins folder. launch pkhex Under Tools in pkhex choose DynamaxAdventureReset

We don't work for GF/TPCi, so ultimately only they would know. I guess they won't, simply because it'll require more computing power to run constant checks for every user that deposits a mon into their servers and whatnot, which in a roundabout way translates to more $$ to maintain servers. But I'm just a nobody in their world. It's not like I really know. In terms of future proofing, just have no illegal mons, and you'll probably be fine. In terms of them taking Pokemon generating more seriously so that their GTS isn't a cesspool of hacks, GTS has been around since Gen 4. It's now Gen 8. Granted, while past performance is not indicative of future performance, it's been 4 gens. If each gen is 3 years, it's been 12 years. In my mind (hint: personal opinion) they only care about selling games, and maybe pushing extra merchandise. It does not fully matter what happens to the game once it's been sold (cause they've already earned the money for it. They'll probably only earn extra money from you by pushing merch, or selling future games). While they do want to maintain legitimacy for their tournaments, GTS isn't a part of that.

The other way round. For Gen 5 shiny Genesect, we know the English ones are hacked for sure, and definitely not legal. (i.e: there's no legitimate way to receive a non-Japanese Gen 5 shiny Genesect) Ultimately, it is just that specific legality checks for it were not programmed (on PKHeX's end) It would be a massive undertaking to program language/region info (for some later games; some events are region locked, others aren't) for every event mon. Hence why such things aren't implemented. It's like how some English characters may appear legal on Gen 3 wild Japanese mons, but they definitely aren't legal cause there's no option to legitimately type them in-game. (Japan Gen 3 uses different English characters)

I know this ain't my thread, but asking you for more details would prove to be advantageous to the OP. Can you explain "can't seem to figure out how to use it"? Can't install it, thus cannot seem to figure out how to use it? Do not know which option to use when it opens up on PKHeX, thus cannot seem to figure out how to use it? You thought you clicked on the right option but it seems like nothing happened, thus cannot seem to figure out how to use it? Please explain which step of the process you're potentially stuck at. (regardless if it is any or none of the above, elaborate on your circumstance) As you can see "cannot seem to figure out how to use it?" can be used in every step. :3

To begin with, don't create from scratch, import a wonder card then edit the valid details. What you mentioned doesn't hold true for all generations, but at least for Gen 5, language for Shiny Genesect HAS to be Japanese, as we know it was only distributed locally, and local distributions for Gen 5 restricts the language that can receive it. However, PKHeX likely doesn't flag it, because that data isn't on the Wonder card. We know that it was distributed only for Japanese cartridges locally, but that data isn't written on the wonder card, so they can't track it. [Also note: Gen 5 does not have region data on it. Region data was only implemented starting with 3DS era] Past Gen 6, it can have any region data on it, simply because it can be transferred up on any region 3DS, regardless of the language of cart. Just know the language doesn't change. (Technically, the wonder card itself shows Genesect can have any language and languaged nickname as per the receiving party, but we know it can only be Japanese, as it can only be received by a person with a Japanese language cart. Think of this as metadata; data beyond actual data. We know this in real life, but it's not noted down as data on the wonder card.) The label has nothing to do with region settings. It's purely for language. Don't confuse language and region settings, partner. Name changing: Unlikely. Name changing probably only occurs if it had an illegal nickname, but event mons typically can't be nicknamed by the player, hence it cannot gain an illegal nickname that would result in its name being fixed. Not to mention if it did have an illegal nickname (who knows how), it would already be fixed in Transporter -> Bank, which that transfer uses the language of the mon itself. So there wouldn't be a chance for it to be fixed in Bank -> HOME. (FYI, for such a name fix in HOME, would likely match language settings of HOME, not region settings. Region settings practically influence nothing in a Pokemon's data.) [I reckon the story where you heard the shiny Genesect's name being fixed, belong to a badly hacked shiny Genesect, that was hacked into Gen 6, Gen 7, or Gen 8 (past the Transporter->Bank) stage] Why not being flagged? already explained. How does it change names? for events extremely unlikely, but if it does: already explained.
