I didn't know that. Gen 3 is the only gen I've ever had. I got an emulator purely for fun and to get access to sapphire again, as my cartridge has been missing for years. I never got to play with anyone or do trades, as my house only has the one DSLite, and we never had a cable, even if I'd wanted to trade. Is there any other means I could use to get more shinies? I like the Gen 3 games, and find it rather disappointing that shinies are so sparse there.

I don't quite understand the mention of the later games, since I specified I wanted an older gen ditto for an older-gen game (fire red/leaf green), but sure? I'll look into the tools, but when I tried before, it all seemed too complicated and I feel like I lacked too much context/understanding for that

I've spent the last several hours looking to no avail. I'm trying to get a foreign ditto (anything other than english) and I can't find anything that's valid for my gen version. I'm trying to get one for FR/LG, but can't find any that work. Most are from newer versions, and have too much info, which leaves me confused on what the heck I do to get them into my game. Trying to insert them bombards me with messes of "invalid data." I haven't found a single one for Gen 3, and am feeling rather defeated. I don't understand PKHex beyond the very basics, and am not a coder by any means. I just want a valid foreign ditto PKM file for Masuda. The oldest gen ditto I found was gen four, which PKHex said was invalid or corrupt and couldn't go into my game. I'm sick of finding files from the wrong versions, or from posts that were made too many years ago. I'd appreciate good IVs, but I honestly don't care at this point. I just need it to be foreign, valid, and work. Please help.. TL;DR: Need foreign ditto (not english) Gen 3 only, up-to-date file, pkm file only, must be valid. Hope for good IVs, not picky tho
