Hi everyone! For years and years now, I’ve held onto one of my few remaining, non-transferred-everything-out saves. Whenever I load up my Pokemon Diamond save, be it from the cartridge or emulators, my save opens to a blank black screen. Rarely, I’ve been able to get to the journal screen. New games work, but haven’t been able to push the save file past the journal or black screen.

Unfortunately, the save file has been compromised with light Action Replay use. As far as I remember, only for rare candies and BP - I originally made this game after I wanted to finish the Pokédex more “legitimately” after using AR heavily on my Pearl version.
I’ve tried editing my position on the map, removing any supposedly illegal Pokémon, but I think my issue is more out of my realm than my research led me to believe. It would mean the world to me if someone is able to get it back to normal! Thank you so much for your time  I’ve attached the unedited save to the post.

Hello guys!

I'm trying to upload my save in on my modded switch but  FireRed_s.sav and .nx_save_meta.bin but when I try to restore it and try to play it it starts the game from the begining I guess i have to modify also the .nx_save_meta.bin to make mi file work but idk how and I didn´t find any other post related to this.

 

Can anyone help me.

Thanks.

Step 1: Open PKHeX and your save file (FireRed s.sav), then make your desired additions.
Step 2: Follow the steps shown in the video precisely, and verify that your modifications have been successfully saved to your (FireRed_s.sav) file.

P.S.: Use the Checkpoint application to create a backup; you only need to edit the FireRed_s.sav file.

Hi, as the title says, I’m asking if there’s a guide to creating legit Pokémon in any Pokémon game. Right now I’m playing Violet, so maybe there’s a guide (even a general one) on how to create a legit Pokémon from scratch. Thanks in advance, and I hope I didn’t post in the wrong place for this discussion. Thank you. 

 

( is there a discord server? i find and invitation but it is wrong. If there is pls post here.)

Option 1: Database

Option 2: PKHeX + AutoModPlugins

https://github.com/santacrab2/PKHeX-Plugins

The PKHeX application and the plugin must match in version as shown in the images.

Hey there, 

I want to catch Darkrai in Pokemon Platinum (or Platin to be exact, the german version). I tried injecting the .pcd (the wondercard), but the green guy didn't appear in any Pokémart. Then I tried with the .pgt (the item itself). I got the item, but for some reason the game doesn't really activate the event. So I got the membercard in my bag but the event still doesn't appear. I tried it on my 3DS and on melonDS emulator.

I used the tutorial you had on the website for injecting (thx btw, had problems before). 

If anyone knows how to receive it using the .pcd or knows how to activate the event, I would appreciate is so much!

Thanks in advance,

Calriz

The Member Card in Pokémon Platinum was an event-exclusive key item distributed via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection during limited-time promotions.  
It is no longer active as the official Wi-Fi events ended years ago. 

Key Details:
Event Periods:
North America:      August 3, 2009 – September 13, 2009
Japan:              December 1, 2008 – January 15, 2009
Europe & Australia: August 3, 2009 – November 13, 2009

Requirements to Active:
Have the National Pokédex.
Have completed the Cresselia event on Fullmoon Island (obtained the Lunar Wing). 

How to Use:
After receiving the Member Card, go to the Harbor Inn in Canalave City and talk to the man in the room.  
He will send you to Newmoon Island in a dream, where you can encounter Level 50 Darkrai. 

Workarounds:
Action Replay (AR) codes: 
Use cheat devices to obtain the Member Card 

Code:

Im honestly not quiet sure if this is the right place to post this and i would apologize if it might be wrong... you see, the phones I have available doesnt support dolphin emulator, and my pc is still broken so I cant really play the game. Im hoping someone will be kind and not busy enough to bring my porygon2 in there for the earth ribbon... if thats alright.

Heres the sav file of my game from emerald. Please? Or is there another way for me to get it? I dont have access to pkhex either and the only thing i can is pkmds web version and i dont see an option to cheat on the ribbon... and that would make my porygon2 illegal or something too right?

Hello everybody, Meowmix here. Mostly here to ask questions on the legality/validity of PKHex edits I try to do of whatever Pokemon game I'm playing since I seem to figure that out more easily than I do trading on mGBA.

Speaking of, which is a good thread to ask that question, assuming it's an acceptable question to ask?

So I use pkhex for Pokemon emerald and sometimes when I use it to give me a couple items it rolls me back a save before the save I previously just saved .i understand emerald has 2 types of saves a recent and a back up but sometimes it will tell me the save file is corrupted and the previous will be loaded.is this gonna brick my save or am I going to be ok?can someone explain please

If your cartridge is original, there shouldn't be any problems restoring your save.

If your cartridge is a copy, use this tutorial.

I can't seem to create any pokemon for emerald and have them show as legal. I have created another save so I have a TID an SID and a name to use to simulate a trade. Nothing I do seems to create a legal pokemon. I'm trying to create trades for a team of 6 with perfect IVs and natures I want to use. Something I am noticing PKHex do during all of this is it will stop letting me check legality, the red triangle just stays frozen. Any specific tutorials for making a legal pokemon in Emerald with perfect IVs?

EDIT: version 25.06.09

There are 2 options

1- RNG via pokefinder
https://github.com/admiral-fish/Pokefinder

2-Create an egg and modify with pkhex IVs and nature

PS: Do not exchange your modified pokemon with other players

Hello!!!

I was checking my pokemon and I found that the Salamence that had been a Bagon of the wish event, tells me that it is invalid, it's been a while since I looked at it but before if it was legal.
Can anyone help me? The only thing I need is a PID and IV for Impish nature.
I leave here the Salamence that before was marked as legal.

Hello,

I'm hoping I can receive some help recovering a save file for my japanese copy of Ruby. I had been doing some trades between this copy and some of my Gen 3 english games when during one trade the games froze. My Emerald was able to recover but my Ruby file was lost. I've tried to load it into PkHex but got Unsupported File Type/Corrupt error, and I can't quite figure out what to do when looking at it through a hex editor. This is the only save file I have for Ruby since I got my card reader after this occurred.

Thanks for any assistance.

Hello! I just signed up so I hope this is the right place to write this but I have a request, if you don't mind!

I have recently been looking into the new sprites that originated from Pokémon BDSP and were reused (and some "revamped", like Charizard's colouration) for Pokémon SV. They were also used in Home, with every Pokémon accounted for, however the Home's quality is not the best. In fact, the BDSP ones are the best quality (from what I've seen), I imagine for SV and Home, they shrank down or compressed the images from BDSP somewhat.

So the point I wanted to bring up is that SV have the second best looking sprites for these designs and I noticed that someone had added the Pokémon SV DLC mons (Ogerpon, Terpagos, etc.) but not returning Pokémon that only appear in the DLC (Sentret, other gen starters, etc.).

I don't know if it's worth waiting until the Switch 2 update to see if the quality of the sprites improves further but if we could get these added, it'd be awesome since it'd offer higher quality versions of the sprites for some Pokémon post-Sinnoh!

Here all the information

I have some Pokémon in my Ultra Moon save file that show up as illegal in PKHeX (I have tried 24.07.27 and 25.02.23)

These Pokémon have the OT "AIDS73" and originate from a secondhand Black2 cartridge. I used Poké Transporter to move them up to Gen 7 before wiping the save around 2018 or 2019 (I don't have an exact date) and their OT was not overwritten.

I started a new Black2 save just now with the same OT and it works, so the OT of these Pokémon wasn't hacked on the B2 cart to bypass the word filter either. They are legitimate Pokémon.

The word filter in Gen 7 does prohibit the word "AIDS", but it does not prohibit "AIDS73" as I was just able to nickname a newly hatched Nincada that, but I was not able to nickname it the former name. This means PKHeX is wrong in this specific case, because it also thinks that a legal Gen 7 origin Pokémon with the nickname "AIDS73" is illegal.

But this got me thinking...is the OT "AIDS73" prohibited by the current version of Poké Transporter, but not a previous version that I had used to transport them initially? 

So I continued playing the new save until I was able to catch a Pokémon and deposit it in the PC, which is thankfully very early in these games. Then I transferred the caught Purrloin to Pokémon Bank using Poké Transporter. The Pokémon still had the same OT name in Pokémon Bank, and also when I transferred it to Ultra Sun, so PKHeX is wrong in the case of the transferred up Gen 5 Pokémon as well, regardless of whether they were transported in 2019 or 2025.

So I have a bootleg emerald and a genuine emerald, alongside the "GB Operator" which allows me to download my actual save files from the cartridges onto my pc. My genuine emerald came with a dry battery, so I performed a clean new battery installation myself as I thought that was what was stopping me from importing my bootleg save. 

I then tried importing my bootleg save into an emulator and it just wasn't loading. I've read on some other forums that because some bootlegs (mine as well) don't have a battery they save someplace else? Which is why it isn't working?

Essentially I just want some questions cleared up and some help with transferring my bootleg save to my genuine cart. When I put my genuine emerald into GB operator it says "non-rewritable", why is this? and is there a way to change it so it can be re-written, but I firstly have to figure out how to get my bootleg save file.

Any help is appreciated.

some pirated cartridges save the .sav in the ROM, you need to extract the ROM and use this program to see your save.
and then export it to your Original cartridge
