Looks like amongst all the confusion and installing 5 different softwares, I lost track of the folder where i had the save file. I was trying to open a save file that hasnt started the game yet , could maybe add error handling for that if the library allows it.
Totally my fault. The correct save file works, as does yours! Good job writing this tool and thanks for the answer!
I have another question:
I am trying to create a team for the battle tower, what would be the right tool for that job? I thought i could manipulate the IV's, EV's, nature, PID, but I just press enter and it scrolls to the top?
