    Yeah none of the R4 carts can play GBA games, but yeah R4 + NDS lite should be able to get you your GBA save file.
  2. theSLAYER
    How is your post relevant to what you're quoting? Also you must be doing something wrong. The guy appeared just fine for me. (Also I literally just imported a PGT to test)
  3. theSLAYER
    tho I think the OP is planning to use the flashcart to load another Pokemon game to distribute movie tickets. If that is the purpose, GBA flashcart is necessary. Tho if editing the save of an existing pokemon game to do the distribution, I suppose NDS R4 is also needed. I guess what's important, is the OP must clearly spell which option they're going for, in order for us to give accurate information
  4. theSLAYER
    Is there R4 for GBA? I legitimately don't know. In any case, you'll need a GBA flashcart for GBA games. GBA Distros (distributions carts), or alternatively a standard GBA Pokémon game distributing modified event tickets, are both GBA games.

    "It" does not exist. No need to revive this thread. Perhaps youtubers will speculate, but as of writing, an official date does not exist. The Official Pokémon JP site or Twitter will post it if a date ever gets decided. As of now, the movie dates have not been delayed. As long as the movie dates are not delayed, latest time to expect Zarude and shiny Celebi is the movie airing date. If the movie gets delayed, well just wait some more. edit: In case people needed proof (link)

    @Ekkyes we have a tutorial regarding extracting gba saves from the cart. Once that is done, I can teach you how to import the events into those saves. Finally, using the same tool as mentioned in the tutorial above, you can inject those modified saves. edit: And Yes, you can use 2 GBA and a distro, provided you have a distro or a flashcart to load the distro on. Alternatively you can use said flashcart to distribute wonder cards from Gen 3 games too. (their save will need modified wonder cards that allow distribution)

    Set chance of obtaining event raids, within the file So the normal_encount block (and the rigel variants) contains data that corresponds to 2 important criteria: 1. What is amount of raid dens you get per reset? (Reset either being day reset, or a reset forced by the player clearing all the dens in that particular sub-region [Base Galar/IoA/CT]. This amount can be a range, tho all events thus far have a the low and high amount set to the same value. 2. Chance of getting the event raid from wishing piece. Note: It rolls ROM versus Event den first. Then, only if it is a ROM den, it rolls Purple VS Red light. ROM light colors adheres to a Rare Purple 12.5% and Common Red 87.5% ratio. (reminder: to not include Event Red into this ratio) Taking the value on the file to be n, take the percentage to be n / 16 x 100%. Using the same n, ROM purple lights are calculated to be (1 - n) / 8. Offsets for entries Sword Shield Low amount on reset 0x11C6 0x46 High amount of reset (Also doubles as n / 16 x 100) 0x11C7 0x47 Credits to Anubis to test the various info and documenting them very clearly.

    What is "Wild Area News"? In Gen 8, Promoted/Event Raids has been introduced as a way for players to try to encounter (and potentially catch) mons that were event exclusive, or have the stuff that are harder to find normally to have a more common encounter rate. Examples of event exclusives: Gigantamax Milcery, Gigantamax Hattrem Examples of 'them being harder to find normally" Any of the featured Gigantamaxes (normally 5-10% rare den only, normally 5* only) How does one update the "Wild Area News" in game? Either grab a Mystery Gift in-game (Serial or Nintendo Network [internet gift]) or use the Mystery Gift -> Update Wild Area News option. How are they stored in the save? They are stored as 4 to 6 different blocks on the save. PKHeX can dump them via the Block Data button. The 4 blocks are KBonusRewards, KDaiEncount, KDropRewards and KNormalEncount. kNormalEncountRigel1 was introduced for Isle of Armor, kNormalEncountRigel2 was introduced for Crown Tundra. The files have been seen on the Event Gallery. How can users import them? Download the .rar, extract the 4 to 6 files from inside the archive, and import the 4 to 6 files into the corresponding blocks. There is a tutorial regarding blocks importing. All 4 to 6 files must be imported from the same index to make the raids appear in-game. What are Indexes? Indexes are the way we implemented to differentiate the various changes to the Wild Area News files made by the server. Indexes can be observed from the files. So far, the first byte in the file denotes the index of the file, and whenever the server updates the Wild Area News, and the server always increments the Index by one, even if the raids are the same. While the index on the first byte is in Hexadecimal, we name the archive in Decimal. (So 0x0E as 14, for example) As an example, when a certain event is ongoing (A), and they interrupt (A) with a different event (B). When (B) ends and they go back to (A), as opposed to using the original index (A) had, they (so far) +1 to (B). At some times, there is no rhyme and reason to why the servers change indexes for the same event distribution. Importing older Wild Area News without rigel1, into saves that are from 1.2.0 and above As of v.1.2.0 of the game, they added a new file called normal_encount_rigel1, which is used to activate wild area events in Isle of Armor. For wild area events Index 24 and lesser, there is no need to import a file into kkNormalEncountRigel1. Importing older Wild Area News without rigel2, into saves that are from 1.3.0 and above As of v.1.3.0 of the game, they added a new file called normal_encount_rigel2, which is used to activate wild area events in Crown Tundra. For wild area events Index 39 and lesser, there is no need to import a file into kkNormalEncountRigel2. What does some of the details in the comments mean? Least/most amount of event dens on reset - the amount of event dens on reset, with the reset either being forced by day change, or by clearing all the dens in a sub-region (Galar/IoA/CT) Chance of event from wishing piece - the chance of getting the event den by using a Wishing Piece. The Event VS ROM dens roll occurs before Purple light VS Red light roll. Checksum over Pokémon encounter data - This gives users a quick look over whether the encounter from the files are exactly the same. For example: An additional point I'll like to bring up: the files are only checksum'd over Shield's Pokémon Encounter area, so that the checksum won't change simply because the index changes.

    You can just load them via the #tagged entries in our event gallery, and skip pages that has extra indexes.

    That's an odd question, since Ultra Sun is a 3DS game. I'm assuming you meant save backup. Look harder then. What I'm about to reiterate, can be found in one of our tutorials. 1. Install CFW on your 3DS. Follow this guide. Use at your own risk. 2. Once CFW installed, you can use a Save manager to export your save (whether cart or e-shop download). At that point, you gotta follow our tutorial properly. If you're using JKSM or Checkpoint. Cheers.

    No, as most generations don't transfer Items. If I'm not mistaken, only Gen 3 -> Gen 4 transfer items. It would be annoying to indicate (no item transfer) for every other transfer. Yeah, I'm aware of the shiny Mew. That part of the text was before HOME was available. I'll change that now.

    The indexes account for which event in the game first. Index 16 came first, then index 17 (Easter event) interrupted the index 16 distribution. Now that the Easter event ended, GF servers loaded the same event, but as index 18. In other words, even if the mons are the same, they’ll always go up by an index. This happened with other wild area news before.

    You need to hack your 3DS (load CFW). Follow this guide (at your own risk). Once that is done, you can use save managers to import/export saves on your 3DS (including retail carts). Guide here.

    I don't think it was given by official Pokémon JP, that's all I know. I was looking forward to it too.

    Were to trying to be too detailed with your search? mind showing a screenshot?

    it was delayed.
  22. theSLAYER
    Same with the Switch, need to get CFW on the 3DS, then use a save manager to inject the save. Also, paste your replies (from translator) into notepad before pasting them here. Your replies have been in big font, and I shrunk them down for ya ><
  23. theSLAYER
    Install CFW on Switch, use a save manager homebrew to export the save from your Switch. Then, use the save on PKHeX. you can inject an emulator's save into 3DS/Switch, then send to Pokémon HOME. Cannot send from emulator straight to HOME. Need to inject the save first.
  24. theSLAYER
    If you were editing the sav for randroll, it shouldn't cause issues (shouldn't change.) Tho if you were bringing an event raid online, yeap you would forced to follow the server For save, I'm assuming it's only the randroll and maybe the stars, because AFAIK Missingno raids was a rom hack for the raid den species. If you brought your Missingno raid online, and it's a common den or rare den (not event den) and it changed, I can only think the server patched it...
  25. theSLAYER
    Yes, that's what you can choose the lead on RNGreporter or Pokefinder. Not that I know of. PKHeX can spot the method, but wouldn't generate the proper PIDIV for you. The programs I mentioned in my first point should suffice.
