That’s a possible one too. So make sure you check all single gender species in the pokedex on PKHeX and make sure the incorrect gender isn’t ticked, and the correct gender is.

I used pkhex for editing seen all pokemon in pokedex and now everytime i want to open my pokedex and check my seen pokemon it won't open and my game is stuck. Music plays but i can't do anything other than restart.

Won’t necessarily call that violent. That the game crashed, got pixelated visual glitches etc.

I reckon the issue being might have been caused by flagging a species with variable form as seen/owned but no forms are set to seen/owned.

That also happens in SWSH when all raids were flagged when it’s not possible.

Also happens in older gens when you edit stuff into a PC box that wasn’t actually unlocked.

Also I wonder if the game validates that you when you seen/caught species that don’t exist in the game (can happen if your save is on a lower revision but you’ve tried to hack in something added in a patch), just food for thought 

Please check all of those things

I was wondering, when a pokemon is moved from GEN3 to GEN4 is their data is stored in the GEN4 save somehow? it does happen with the hall of fame, so i thought maybe it could be the case with Pal Park pokemon too. Maybe just their species and PID, or smth like that?

IIRC any Pokémon transferred from Gen 3 to 4 via Pal Park is stored in PK4 format, with only a few data incomplete (stuff that gets populated when you catch a mon). However this is temporary; any future transfers would erase the older data in those slots.

Alright, bit harsh in the end.... but anyway, do you think there is anyway to recover anything? If all I could recover would be my pokemon at least some, that would be enough. Thank you in advance!

Sorry if it seemed harsh, had to emphasise how impossible it would be.

As for your follow-up question: Without the unique key (which is in the ROM of your retail cart) the data would look scrambled. IIRC there isn’t any cart-non-encrypted area. Meaning the save data would look just like garbage data. At this stage I reckon you should look at other avenues of restoring team data.

IIRC Gen 7 was the generation that introduced Rental Teams. Do you have the codes for your active rental teams?

If I use PkHeX to give myself a Member Card in BD and then run that save on my regular SysNand, can I get banned? Also can I recreate distribution event mons entirely? 

For previously elapsed in-game events should be save; if you think about it from an unknowing person(well this would be the server)’s perspective, you basically came back to play the saved event after a long time. 

Similar to using properly legal event mons. Just don’t use/trade them to/against others, and don’t do anything ridiculous. All at your own risk.

To be precise, I believe it uses a cart unique key to encrypt the save. So if you lose the cart, and didn’t make a decrypted backup, nor did you make a ROM dump of that cart (the header/key is in the ROM), then you’re outta luck.

There were methods to brute force it previously, not sure it works currently, but in any case it would also require you to have the cart on hand.

Taking a closer look at the mon, it says Pokewalker at the PID type. (not ID)
It is the way Pokewalker IDs are generated. PKHeX is finding best matches out of every detail.

It is only confusing cause the mon you're using is so so illegal.

Once again, you should not have a Gen 6 Pokemon Met in Nuvema town, and gen 5 game of origin (among other things). I advise you let this one go. ><

Ok, But I'm just confused on what it is and how it was made, for some reason it can be uploaded to black and white, and in its ID it has the Pokewalker on it 

Check the location ID number, and location name for the Mon in Gen 4, and reply me.

I understand, it’s just the title really. But the content isn’t asking for the ROM, so I’m just covering all bases.

no worries, I too am an interested party that would like this to see the light of day.

Read this:

The only parts I want to add that wasn’t mentioned here is that someone leaked the ROMs online, but without the memory card dump as well as solving the NR reader issue, it will be unusable to those who download them. (Also remember piracy isn’t allowed here).

I’ve been seeing that people (those who do engage in the piracy on other platforms) would try to give it a crack, and would then proceed to give up on it. So far, it doesn’t appear emulators want to implement fixing the NR reader issue, as I’m told that seems to infringe on Nintendo copyright.

I can’t source the exact thread or post, but I vaguely remember reading that the original plan was to somehow have it physically accessible to the public, and that was negatively affected by the leak and thus put on hold.

At the very least, the stuff is all preserved safely. Not much more to say really.

And finally, remember that asking for ROMs are piracy and not allowed here.

If the only issue with Deoxys is the invalid memory, for now just use batch editor to zero out a few factors.

=Box=(box Deoxys is in)
=Slot=(slot number Deoxys is in)
.OT_Memory=0
.OT_Feeling=0
.OT_Intensity=0
.OT_TextVar=0
.HT_Memory=0
.HT_Feeling=0
.HT_Intensity=0
.HT_TextVar=0

In the mean time I’ll have to investigate this further on my end.

But did you actually try it? It does work with every repro i threw at it including different pokemon rom hacks and completely different bootlegs like wario world, metal slug, hamtaro etc. Just need to select unlicenced batteryless sram and backup saves data and write saves data Anyway, just tried to help in case you diddnt know because all this stuff seems like a huge struggle

I used a different software and tried a similarly named step. Also tried to cobble together separate patches to see if I can make it work. To my understanding GBxCart RW is a hardware, but if the software you’ve shown works well without the hardware then I can give that a shot

This is an alternative I’ve been meaning to try (so that I can test and verify and modify the tutorial) but haven’t gotten around to it. Try it for the already patched file

Hi maybe im missing somthing here, but did any of you try the gbx cart flasher? Just pick "unlicenced batteryless sram" as the save type and you're good to go, no need for any extractor/injector tool

Don’t think everyone has the flasher you’re using. Also don’t think it works with every repro type. I tried doing something similar to one of mine (supposedly it is able to save proper save sizes if tweaked correctly) but to no avail.

No this is happening after ive loaded the rom into it. Is i happening because its a rom hack and not the original game? because it is a .nds file

maybe it's the ROM hack interfering with stuff. Try perform this hack to the base ROM, then patch it with the ROM hack, then launch the game and see if it works.

Load a valid NDS file first?

Try reading this. I’ve tried breaking stuff down.

The Blaziken raids (Event 40, Event 41) incorrectly list the tera type as Ice in the description when it should be Flying. I am assuming it is a copy paste issue from the Iron Bundle raids.

Fixed, thanks

Oh right raid not wonder card, my bad 

The shiny was released as an event, and cannot have the ID changed.

(1) transfer up from the correct game or,
(2) use an existing copy from someone else with a valid HOME tracker, and don’t edit any immutables 

edit, forgot this part

(3) *{needs both a and b}
[a] only if the species exists in SWSH and 
[b] origin game is below Gen 8 or is GO*;
move in the Mon, with 0 HOME tracker, into HOME from SWSH

Is there like an “Atmosphere Vanilla” or something. If there isn’t, take a screenshot of the launch screen and show me

I was praying to god you were going to mention their now-deleted post about how they "don't own" gen 9, and BOY am I glad you did

It’s not instant-ban on the forums but if they continue asking about the same topic as when they were a pirate, then we obviously can’t help them (since that implies they’re still a pirate).

They need to read our rules and guidelines again. There’s a few things they said wrong as well.

because it's only game what has different mystery gift structure different than previous gens

Not true. To be precise, any Pokémon Switch game (even LGPE) so far has a different structure, in the sense that it can’t directly be injected to the save, so it’s not limited to Gen 9.

 if not a single cfw allows online access since most sources say that going online with cfw like atmosphere msy result in a ban 

While most CFWs warn that the chance exists, it’s also true that CFW + Sysnand without anything sketchy installed (or ever installed) is fine. 

We have a whole list of things on Discord (said by devs + collaborated with user reports) on what to avoid. I’ve been using my hacked Switch on CFW online ever since Mario Odyssey launch, no issues.

I get the impression they’ve been treating the “warning” as a “guarantee”, when it is an *at your own risk* disclaimer. Either that, or they have pirated stuff onto their Sysnand before (not just Emunand), hence it has been solidified as a guarantee in their mind and they’ve been acting off that.

In any case, let’s stop being off-topic and continue with BCAT discussion.

You can launch Sysnand + CFW. Make sure you device stays offline. 
 

While CFW + Sysnand, you can backup and restore to the correct files.
