This tool allows you to manage all your saves storage, moving pkm between banks, boxes, saves and local storage. You can also edit pkm, evolve them (when trade is required), create "version" of them for specific generations. All generations are supported, starting from Gen1 to Pokemon Legends: Z-A ! For example you can take a Kadabra from your save of Pokemon Black (Gen5), create a "version" for your save Pokemon Crystal (Gen2), then move pkm to it. PKVault allows you to bypass all generation constraints, you can move a pkm from Gen3 to Gen1, from Gen2 to Gen7, and so on. The app includes a centralized Pokedex with search filters (by name, games, types, etc), as well as living-dex and shiny-dex support. An auto-backup system prevents data loss. Saves & pkms are backed up before any write actions ! Saves are read from your file system, you don't have to upload them to PKVault, provide your saves paths and the app will get them itself. PKHeX is used under the hood, so all your stored pkm are in PKHeX format and can be manipulated by PKHeX directly. Compatibility & legality PKVault aims to be compatible with every save file supported by PKHeX. Creating a pkm "version" means converting a copy between generations, which may cause legality issues with origin, moves, etc. These issues are all displayed on the app, and you can use PKHeX to fix them. Currently, English + French + German are supported by the app. It can evolve depending on feedbacks. Bugs & issues A backup system exists to avoid any data loss even in case of bugs when writing save. You can still encounter bugs and other issues. Please report any issue on github or project-pokemon discussion to help improve the app. Why I made this app My good old first gens Pokemon games lost their saves due to empty internal battery. So I decided to replay the first games and continue through to the latest generations, with the goal of fully completing all the pokedex. I was frustrated about barriers between some generations (2->3, 4->3, ...), and by how difficult it was to get some pkms, like Slowpoke in Gen3 even though I already had one in my Crystal (Gen2) save. Also it's hard today to get all trade-only evolutions like Alakazam, and I didn't like the limited usability of TMs in the early generations. While PKHeX can fix all these issues and more, but I wanted something more tailored to my needs, and more restricted: PKVault restricts cheating possibilities. Finally I wanted something like Pokemon Home, but for the old games as well. For all these reasons I created PKVault.
