What is "this". The picture? backing up the wrong save? It's hard to tell what your issue is, since you hijacked someone else's post.

Is the save you backed up, the same save as OFW?

send me the edited save here.

then remove the .sav that you can see. Most VBA's have a battery folder (in their directories option, or whatever the relevant option is, you can check what directories exist), but maybe yours is one that doesn't use it.

no

Can you try removing the .sav file in your battery folder, then launch vba and the game, then import said save? How does it then?

Save twice in the game, before you try to modify the save. The save I used has been touched by PKHeX before, if you can use that save that means there’s something wrong with how you use PKHeX with your save.

maybe the ROM hack itself modifies base saves a bit. Does it run an Emerald save from here? (keep a safe backup of your original unmodded save)

Just load a gen 7 save into PKHeX. Whatever saves you load, is the one that PKHeX will use. Save the modified save with PKHeX. Then restore that modified save into your game. That's how you can load a save into PKHeX. and how to restore the modified save into your game.

To make your life simply, save in-game, soft reset, then export battery file. Then use PKHeX to edit that. Then Import Battery File. It differs between VBAs, but it looks something like this:

A serial code will be distributed to players. This event mon is based on 2019 WCS Top 4 player Baik Jongyoon's Shiny Amoonguss. More info to come. https://story.kakao.com/ch/pokemonkorea/GLKb9y9LCs0 https://pokemonkorea.co.kr/ptc2020

Anyhow, change the date of your Switch everyday before you launch a game, and save a game before midnight, close the game before it hits midnight, then change the date after it hits midnight, then launch the game (after midnight). The point is to always launch the game when your Switch is in a state where "date was manipulated". (If and when your Switch changes the date naturally, the state also changes; no longer "date manipulated" state. So to go back to "date manipulated" state, gotta manipulate the date again. The actual date you change to doesn't matter, just need to have at least 1 change) This way, the seed for that den (if wishing piece used) NEVER CHANGES, even if the wild area news gets updated. [Theoretically it shouldn't change if a wishing piece wasn't used, but that wasn't what I tested, so cannot give confirmed information] The species might change, but it'll still be shiny, retain IVs etc. With this way, I've retained my shiny frame for months..

Are you using the 3 resets methods. Like the shiny is 3 frames away?

Given the OP is asking about PKHeX: Can get Kurt to return GS Ball via Event Flags (Best part is you don't even have to give Kurt a GS Ball)

no.

I don't think there's legality checking on any of the marks yet.

Kindly do not bump a thread. It is known that emulators are not perfect, and the game might get stuck at story related places, unable to proceed. If you want to continue, play on a Switch, or wait patiently (without bumping the thread) for someone to submit a save.
