custom firmware. You 'hacking' the device and running a 'custom version' of the 'firmware'.

Basically without CFW, you can't use homebrew to backup your saves. So if you can do that, you are definitely on CFW.

You can also just check the firmware version of the Switch in settings. there should be AMS as a prefix or something.

i actually dont have a switch yet, and i am buying it today, the 2019 latest switch og model, how can i access my save files on it then?

Pkhex but there’s always a risk when using CFW as it could be detected by Nintendo. I have used CFW and Pkhex/Checkpoint for years and so far I never had a problem. Playing downloaded roms or hacking save games (such as in animal crossing) could get you banned, but replacing a few mons using pkhex its AFAIK safe .

what is the meaning of cfw btw?

You'll not get banned for using PKHeX if you don't gen illegal stuff.

aaah okay, thanks, i won't do illegal stuff ofc(is evoliving trade pokemon or increasing level illegal?)

so can i get banned in pokemon swsh, if i use pkhex to edit my sav file, or will i lock online play, just like with roms, like online play is not there in them so like that will my online play get disabled

 i ofc am not gonna hack iv's and ev's just evolving trade pokemon, i only wanna use for that
