    I'm still confused. So Bulbasaur's second learned move, "Growl" would not show up under relearn moves even if it was replaced by another move? Are you saying Relearned moves are only egg moves?

    At the very least, Egg moves or whatever moves get thrown onto the Mon during an event. Some games have wild mons that you catch that would have these moves populated.

    So they’re not just restricted to egg moves, but most commonly seen there.

    Wait what? So you mean to tell me if anyone ever misses an event/cherish ball mon in champions, there will never be a way to add it to our save files!?

    Yeah cause the mons are directly sent into Champions, and can’t be sent out of Champions. 
    There’s also no publicly known way to directly hack champions (and even if there was it wouldn’t be recommended)
     

    Even if you somehow hack a mon in a main series game to appear as tho it was made in Champions, a quick glance at the data would show it came entered HOME, meaning hacked.

    I understand, thank you for the reply.Do you have any plans to add individual restrictions for this event in the future?I don't have the wc6full data myself, but since my native language is Japanese, I can help by reading through old Japanese blogs and official images to provide additional information if needed.

    The information is all collated over various sites. The problem is that it needs to be in a format that is easily parsable and applied by the program.

    So for example, every event (which is currently a wc6) could be custom made as a wc6full to bypass this problem.
    Or alternatively, the data would need to be stored as a csv.

    I believe it'll be implemented as long as the file/data is created.

    Sorry if this question has been asked before. Is it technically impossible to inject data back with the SV Overworld Viewer, even though viewing and extracting it is possible?

    Oh it’s definitely possible, but I reckon such usage is rife for abuse so I’ve not enabled it.

    what’s your plans for this?

    Honestly, thanks you again, so much, for the responses. I will now let them know this info. and will not be buying the save/game from them.

    I know it's a lot to ask, but they also have an Emerald save/game - at this point, based on this particular save file, it definitely could also be tampered with, but if you, or anyone, have any extra free time, I could upload that save file as well to this post after work to deep dive that one as well. Really appreciate everything.

    Feel free to upload the save. Is there anything specific you’ll like focused on the save? Elucidate on why you bought the game, what story was given to you etc.

    Thank you SO much for the detailed list. I let them know about this and this was their response to some of those points (copy and pasted from them)...I will just list your points with "Q" and theirs with "A".

    Q: Articuno/Moltres/Zapdos all share the same unremarkable PID/IV. Possible modified from each other.
    A: "i will admit i did generate legendary birds (and maybe even Lugia) at one point but i thought that was on a different save and not this one. regardless tho, that is literally how the program pkhex generated them (which they claim generates legit pokemon but apparently not if they give all same friendship and pid/ivs)."

    Q: Venusaur and Blastoise are level >90 and have 0 EVs.
    A: "i used vitamins or rare candies i believe"

    Q: 
    The Suicune in the Roamer data does not match the Suicune they captured.
    A: "there's nothing stating it has to....i had/have multiple save files with the same trainer name so it was most likely traded over or something."

    Q: Every single TM is owned (in bag), but multiple Pokemon have TM moves learned. Somewhat suspicious.
    A: "what would be suspicious about that? you can trade games and teach moves."

    Q: The save file has only been saved 60 times. / Only healed in the pokecenter 19 times. Crazy low amount. / Used the daycare 8 times? hatched less than 2 dozen eggs?
    A: "where exactly in the program do you see this? i will download it and check it out myself."

    Q: Pokedex is complete, but Spinda's PID is still uninitialized (zero), implying the pokedex was cheated to complete.
    A: "what does this even mean and where do you see this?"

    Q: Lugia has the exact same IVs as the other 3 birds.
    A: "again, COULD have been generated that i mistaken for another save of mine. but if it was generated, that is pkhex's fault then for claiming to give legitimate pokemon"


    As it stands, this point below in itself is sufficient to prove that the save itself isn't clean. Everything else was just a really sweet and juicy cherry on top.

    Did not receive Mystic Ticket, yet can travel to Navel Rock? Hasn't even shown the Aurora ticket to the captain, yet has the flags to be able to travel to both event islands.

    You cannot legitimately trigger those flags in the wrong order. I am sorry to say that the save is definitely not clean and the story about receiving the ticket on this save is patently false, full stop.

    Nothing they can say will change that ><

     


    Not part of the main point, but rather just adding on:

    what does this even mean and where do you see this?

    It's either labelled in PKHeX (I can't remember), or the dev of PKHeX knows where to find it.
    We're also not here to give instructions that potentially can be used to try to create/fake a clean save, do understand that not every point will be revealed.

  7. As far as I can tell, no geolocation data is written onto the mon's data, be it from Go Park or sent directly to HOME.

    Yeah, direct to HOME location would be "Pokemon GO", whereas GO to LGPE would be "GO Park complex".
    Because of this difference, stuff from LGPE will not have the hovering "G" flag in the boxes when viewed in HOME.

    Thanks for the detailed answer 😀

    Would you recommend using the encounter database for genning Pokémon from GO, or modifying a GP1 file before catching it in Go Park? Geolocation data isn't stored on the Pokémon since the met location changes to GO Park when transferring into HOME?

    Also, I'm assuming the original Pokemon Go Trainer name only shows when it's directly sent from Go -> HOME?

    Cheers!

    So in general, using encounter database should be good enough as 1) encounter database replicates known algorithms for stats calculation and 2) everything else is said to be sufficiently random.
    Thing is I am slightly paranoid hence what I've said prior. For regular usage either option should be fine, really depends on you.


    As for Go trainer name, as far as I can tell no such information is written on the mon itself for GO -> LGPE (Go Park).
    While GO -> HOME also doesn't write the information to the mon itself, it is stored using the tracker on the server side. So even if the app eventually stops showing you to Go trainer (it used to show me for some pokemon caught earlier, but stopped displaying it after an update), that information will likely continue to be stored by the server.

    @theSLAYER Is there any benefit of genning a Pokémon from Go via GP1 instead of just using the encounter database?

    Once you've captured the Pokémon in GO Park and have sent it from LGPE to HOME, the Pokémon Go Trainer Name and Location Data don't get transferred with it.

    I can't see any difference between a caught Pokémon in Go Park (via GP1), and a genned one from GO Park (via the encounter database).

    Many thanks!

    So there’s a few layers to this question, and I’ll provide answers slightly away from your question, to provide context:

    1. GO to LGPE’s Go Park GO entries and GO to HOME’s GO entries are slightly different, due to met location being different (and that excludes the fact that you’re also species limited), so you should take that into account

     

    2. Regarding genning GP1 data VS Go park entry itself, while the end results currently seems identical (and I believe that I’ve been told stat generation is sufficiently random), there could always be breakthroughs into recognising RNG determination (stat correlations) in the future. I might be overly conservative (and also not caught up in generation subs), however personally, I will opt for the game to generate details where possible. Whether is that a sufficient enough benefit, is up to you.

    Anyone have a Zygarde From Pokemon GO File?? Was wondering if there Was One and if so if it’s legal, Thanks in Advance!

    A legal one does not exist, as Zygarde currently cannot be transferred out of GO.

    also unclear if they plan for it to ever be possible.

    Two of your plugins haven't been updated or recompiled against newer PKHeX version in a while. Both are for Sword/Shield which probably isn't seeing as much play lately to be fair.

    As an update, I'm still looking into this.
    Edit: they've been updated

    Additionally, with your GP1 Editor for the Let's Go games. The "Blank slot" button doesn't actually clear the slot correctly. The game still treats it as occupied, and then when you try to load into that park crashes from trying to load the invalid data.

    Fixed. The plugin also should flag any invalid slots red.

    As far as I can tell this one still works as far as I could test it, so it might not need looking at. https://projectpokemon.org/home/files/file/4585-pkhex-plugin-swsh-overworldmax-raid-ivsbdsp-roaming8b-searcher/

    This is with a recent dev build of PKHeX but has been true for some time.

    Didn't think anyone is using these. I'll need to check if I still have the project files for these, and would need to adopt them for the new working environment I'm on.

    If you export a slot blanked naturally by the game and import .gp1 that into the slot you wish to clear it does work correctly. So I've attached what a correctly blanked slot should look like.

    Thanks for this.

  14. Requirement for “legal” is that the Mon is indistinguishable from one obtained via legitimate means.

    In this case, as VC RSE isn’t released, and the mons you’re thinking of could not be caught nor received in VC FRLG, that means that there’s no legitimate way for you to get it.

    Which in turn means there’s currently no legal copy you could make.


    Something can be in the National Dex, but there being no legitimate way to obtain it; being in the National Dex isn’t a metric that “it must exist right now”. 
    Example 1: In Gen 3, RS launched first, prior to FRLG ColoXD release, thus one was stuck with only what was available in Hoenn Dex, with no hopes of getting Kanto starters.
    Example 2: At the start of every Gen, Mythicals can’t be obtained despite being programmed into the National Dex, because the event isn’t released.


    We’re at the start of the era of VC Gen 3. So not everything is obtainable at the moment. Hope that clears things up.

     

    edit: also if you cannot wait, hack one in now and breed it (for mons that can breed). The one that was bred and hatched, while would still be illegal now, would likely be legal down the line.

    So to be clear, the event itself is tagged as already having visited ZA even though it is distributed in Home? Meaning if I were to finish the required Pokedexs in Home and redeem the event through Home myself, that would also be tagged as a ZA Pokemon? If so a bit disappointing, was hoping I would get one from Home directly and transfer that into Scarlet to use in that game. 

    But thanks for putting it up for ZA, saved me some time, and loving how it looks. 

    Yeah, as per described earlier, every HOME’s Dex completion reward is tagged to the dex’s game.

    SV Dex completion: SV Shiny Meloetta 
    ZA Dex completion: ZA Shiny Volcanion

    people only notice it because.. ZA has the added caveat of not being able to transfer down. I admit, I’m disappointed too, but not just for the gift, but rather for them not finding ways around officially implementing transferring down (cause there are definitely ways they could have implemented it).

     

    No worries, was happy to put it up. I think I made the shiny Volcanion coloration artwork like.. maybe 7 years ago 😂

    Glad I could finally use it.

    Hello, recently downloaded the shiny Volcanion Home event for ZA, and it worked great. Is it possible to transfer this Home event into Scarlet/Violet? The .ph4 only works with ZA, so I cannot transfer it from ZA to Home to Scarlet. So while I have one working for ZA (thank you!) I'd like to get one for Scarlet. Is the event even possibly to transfer into Scarlet at all? 

    As in, if I were to complete my Home dexes (would require a lot of time as I am limited to 30 per box) and redeem my own event copy, would I be able to transfer that into Scarlet, assuming I don't transfer it into ZA first?

     

    To be clear, the event was distributed with the last visited already being tagged as ZA (ZA’s block has been populated), hence why it won’t go down to previous games (as per what Kaphotics shared).

    Aside from Keldeo, having the associated game’s block prefilled has been HOME’s standard for Dex completion rewards (Keldeo has SWSH block filled, but that’s the default for all HOME mons..)

    My apologies if this is not the correct sub.

    When I try to select Fire Red or Leaf Green in JKSV to export their saves, it just freezes.  No matter how long I wait, it never loads.  So far as I can tell, I have the latest versions of hekate, Atmosphere, and JKSV.  Since it appears to be working for others, I'm assuming I messed up something along the way.  This is a new setup, too:  I installed everything about a week ago, and didn't have CFW before.

     

    If it helps:

    I'm using an unpatched Switch with an RCM jig, and CFW on sysMMC.  My Switch firmware is 22.1.0.

    This time it's easier to understand. In other words, the previous generation was prone to personality errors.

    That's good to hear. 

    It's not limited to Generation 3; a number of games have the 'pseudo random generator sequence' deciphered.
    Generation 3, Generation 4, and Generation 8 is affected.
    If I'm not mistaken, Generation 9 does have a personality-determination protocol. However, if I recall correctly, it can be computationally intensive if implemented on the program to scan the whole box whenever a save is loaded, so it is not implemented at this time.

  19. So, if I understand your problem correctly, what you're experiencing is not an error with PKHeX, but rather a user error.
    I hope you'll see my earlier response in a better light; we get reports a lot, and a lot of them tend to be user errors (due to being uninformed or misinformed, however keep in mind we don't expect all users to be informed), hence why I suggested another way to do it.


    In any case, if you are not using Encounter Database filters/criteria settings, you then have 3 options:
    1. If you want Adamant as a nature, you cannot have perfect IVs (I specially created a table below for you)

    Spoiler

    image.png


    2. If you want to keep perfect IVs, choose natures and PID according to the table below.

    Spoiler

    3. Just use the illegal groudon; games usually will not punish you for owning a Pokémon with illegal PIDIVs.

    I accidentally missed your previous message. Sorry for the late reply, I hope you understand I have a life outside of the forums, and don't stay here 24/7.
     

    For static encounters (such as legendaries) in Generation 3, there's only 6 PIDs that can yield perfect IVs.
    image.png

    Those natures are locked, too. The 6 natures in the table above is Modest, Docile, Modest, Timid, Calm, and Modest.
    You likely just think that the nature needs to be Modest, because it has a  50% chance of showing up when trying to obtain a Gen 3 legendary with perfect IVs.

    This is what I was talking about in my initial reply: "trying to change the IVs/PID/Shininess could cause illegality, as the information is 'calculated based on a formula'"

    According to the formula, the PID of 685011A9, with all IVs at 31, can only have nature Modest.
    Correct me if I am wrong, however I believe you just changed your nature here (seen in picture below).
    That caused the Groudon's PID to change, and made the Groudon illegal. (and this is what the error 無効: エンカウントタイプと性格値が一致しません which in this case means: the IVs selected doesn't match what the formula would have generated.)
    image.png

    For Generation 3, changing the nature there can cause legality errors. Keep in mind it is still possible to make the Groudon legal, but it will involve changing the IVs (I will show the fix further down).


    Explanation on "the formula" I mentioned above.

    Spoiler

    Example: Imagine the formula being Nature + IV = PID.

    If IV = 6, and Nature = 1, mathematically the PID equates to 7.
    However if the PID is 8 (or any other value), the program knows that something is wrong with one of those three values, and it will give you that error 無効: エンカウントタイプと性格値が一致しません。

    (this isn't the formula but hopefully a simple example to help you.)
     


    Example of me trying to fix your Groudon with the new PID:

    Spoiler

    Use Pokefinder to get IVs from PID
    image.png

    Amend IVs and PID, and now it is legal!
    image.pngimage.png

    Nature is not locked to Modest!


    Extra information:

    Quote

    Eggs will not cause an error (any nature is fine).

    (translated by Google)

    Eggs have a different formula from static encounters (such as Groudon), hence why Nature isn't an issue.
