Thanks, I will take a look. So, I am getting an error message when attempting to open the 'Misc Edits' window: Exception Details: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Value of '2409996727' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'Minimum' and 'Maximum'. (Parameter 'value') Actual value was 2409996727. at System.Windows.Forms.NumericUpDown.set_Value(Decimal value) at PKHeX.WinForms.SAV_Misc3.<>c__DisplayClass33_0.<LoadRecords>g__LoadRecordID|8(Int32 index) at PKHeX.WinForms.SAV_Misc3.LoadRecords() at PKHeX.WinForms.SAV_Misc3..ctor(SaveFile sav) at PKHeX.WinForms.Controls.SAVEditor.B_OpenMiscEditor_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnMouseUp(MouseEventArgs mevent) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmMouseUp(Message& m, MouseButtons button, Int32 clicks) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ButtonBase.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, WM msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam) I can continue or abort, but neither opens the window. I don't know which record this is anyhow; is this another fix that needs to be done in a HxD?

You're doing God's work, thank you. (Why are there 15 downloads for the save??? XD) I thought I did my due diligence researching the error. Apparently not. Can you elaborate on how you re-ordered the blocks? Just copied and pasted chunks inside a hex editor, or what?

Will do later. Haven't changed much in hex editors before, am reviewing the Save Data Structure for Emerald. And duh, here it is. POKEMONE.SAV

I am helping a friend diagnose a sudden loss of all save data with the more uncommon error message of: The save file has been erased due to corruption or damage. as well as The internal battery has run dry... 1. Naturally, the first step was discerning whether the game was legit: It is authentic 2. Next, I decided to clean the cartridge and check for damage. The game had a crude electrical tape battery install that I remediated properly with a new battery and solder. All pins cleaned; No visible damage. After cleaning/inspection/new battery the battery message disappeared but the save error remained. 3. Next I dumped the save file to my computer (joey Jr) and attempted to load it into PKHeX. Received the error message: Binary is not compatible with save file. Current SAV Generation: 3 4. Also inspected the file size...normal file size of 128KB (131,072 bytes) 5. Tried to open the save with other editors (PKMDS and PokeGen): Did not work with other editors 6. I then tried to open it with WC3Tools...it did open, and some decorations are visible in the decoration editor. 7. To determine if there is a proper connection from the ROM to the SRAM on the cart, I then decided to start a new game and save. Creating a new save game worked 8. Upon booting with the fresh save I was greeted with the message The save file is corrupted. The previous save file will be loaded. 9. This is obviously because both the A and B saves on the cart are bad. Saving a second time removed the error. So: I have an authentic, fully functional Emerald with a new battery, alongside a corrupted save backup on my computer. If the save as a whole isn't salvageable, I would hope to at least extract the pokemon using a hex editor (if that is feasible). Also tried to use FlashGBX, but I can't seem to get it to work (with any of my games). Think that would be nice for a brief analysis of the cart, but I have exhausted all of the troubleshooting tips. Thanks for your time.

Save was somehow corrupted and I am trying to salvage it. Can see strange things like regular items in Key Items pocket, a missing Trainer Name, and a hacked shiny artillery. Everything else appears to be there, but fixing these above issues still does not let me use the save. What can I do here? I use a BennVenn. POKEMONF.SAV

Hi, I am looking for a faster way to generate a living dex. I don't want a copy of someone else's pokemon (I know how to edit OT and TID), so I want unique PID's. Is there any way to do this efficiently via a Plugin or Batch Editor? Maybe just for Method H pokemon and I can manually do the rest?

So I am just curious about this flag as it has a dependency. For the Roamer flags, I have the instructions here from a Reddit post: Save in your room. Optionally: Delete your S.S. Ticket Uncheck Lati@s Roaming Uncheck Don't spawn Norman in Brendan's/May's House Move to the research tab of event flags: Go to flag 0255, 0291, and 0734 and make sure all of them are unchecked In the constant dropdown box go to 130 change the value to the right of it to 3 140 change the value to 3 213 change the value to 0 Close out of that and go to Roamer Delete all of the IVs, the PID, set the roamer to blank, and finally uncheck "Roaming (Active)" Turn on game; walk downstairs to trigger event But choosing a Lati from the TV also affects what is at Southern Island. Is it already covered by one of the above flags? What other flags are important when doing the above for Southern Island?

Agh, I suspected as much...really thought it would be automatic for some reason. And I just realized why that code didn't work in VS. I mistakenly put the operator in the wrong spot (I actually just copied the code you left in the first reply...you corrected it in a later reply). Thanks, I am finally independent. Two last questions: 1. Is this the same RNG method used for XD Eevee (and Beta Vaporeon and Jolteon)? 2. Regardless of that answer, is there anywhere else that this method is used? THANK YOU!

I have manually downloaded the nuget package and saved as zip. I can see the PKHeX.Core.dll file and can pull it out to reference in linqpad (listed under F4->Additional References), but the XDRNG class is still not found. Perhaps I missed a step...what is a 'roller'?

Is there no Event Constant available for changing the old guy inside the pokemon center here? Any way to edit it without having to mix records?

For some reason, I can't find this particular sprite anywhere. Ended up having to edit it out of a frame of a YouTube video. Can anyone please link me this sprite?

You are a lifesaver. I actually own the e reader cards and have Swiss setup, so this is really about saving time for me when I do it the next time.
