  1. Around 2017 I was storing years of Pokemon from DPPT up to ORAS in Bank. I let my subscription expire for some time as I was taking a break from Pokemon. (Or I had transferred them to another save in SM/USUM that without a doubt doesn't exist anymore) Regardless, once I picked the series back up in 2019, I found that I had somehow lost all but 1 Pokemon that I had stored, including my WIP Living Dex and many of my Pastmons. A large majority of the Pokemon I cared about losing had either originated from or spent time in a 300+ hr savefile of ORAS. Recently just for fun, I've tried rooting around in any backup saves I had (all too recent), looking into the save file's flags, and even using HOF Extractor to try to recreate these Pokemon. As not all data is stored in the HOF (to my knowledge), the problem became that what data does remain is missing PID information, etc. that I would've liked to have for met date, IVs, egg moves, etc. I'm not particularly savvy with hex editing and the like and I'm wondering if there is any other way that I'm unaware of to try to find any of this data from the intact save file. I've accepted that most, if not all, of these Pokemon are gone forever, but as the general knowledge of Gen 6's data seems to have increased over time, I was wondering if there was any way to access additional info to try to recover these long lost Pokemon as a just for giggles/interesting project type thing. (Flag set dates for box legendary, etc.) TL;DR - I lost years worth of Pokemon in another deleted save file or from a Pokemon Bank purge during an unsub period. Wondering if there's any way to recover enough specific PID data to recover/recreate these Mons identically from their original intact save file. I'm willing to share the save file here if necessary/helpful. If it makes a difference, I also have the original cartridges for either game that they may have been transferred to outside of Pokemon Bank, that haven't really been touched since.
