Rejoice, these 2 are saves. Tho it appears a lot of your mons are illegal, well at least you have your saves You should be able able to use the files, just make sure to rename them to be only main before you restore then=m. If it doesn't work, let me know. Make sure to tag me (or quote my previous messages) in your replies.

Also not a save. This should not be there. Another thing is, I can't find signs that would point to an empty slot in your PC (usually one's PC would not be completely full)

The file size looks too small. I have yet to look at it but I assume that’s not an actual save. so it’s not that it’s corrupted, it’s that it’s the wrong file

Pokemon HOME flagging seemingly legal pokemon as untradable
theSLAYER replied to Cyndaboss's topic in Pokémon Legality
To begin with, trash bytes don't serve any purpose (hence the word trash in the name) One example of it happening in some games (maybe for all, I don't recall) is when something with a longer name, evolves into something with a shorter name. So for example, Chikorita -> Bayleef In reality, the name is now Bayleef/a, where / is the terminator in this example. The game just replaces the minimum amount of the name, then tags on a terminator. everything else isn't erased, but not visible in game, effectively becoming 'trash'. In older games, you could trade a Pokemon to another language'd game and evolve it there, and it'll get that nickname upon evolution. So in Chikorita's case, it becomes 베이리프/rita HOME may not necessarily be checking specifically the trash bytes, but rather making sure the entire nickname region doesn't have a mix of impossible characters, and the trash byte being part of the region, got detected. I can't say for sure. But yeah, while trash bytes wasn't generated by the game on purpose, and isn't used, as per anything else in a Pokémon's data, it can be used for hack checking -
Yup made officially but not public. Just speculation, but the SV and BDSP icons look like these, so chances are they've all been made and waiting for use case, such as in-games, for visuals in live competitions, any other official way they would want to display them, etc. I don't know for sure how the personal_info is dealt with in SV, but SWSH had them all wiped out. So the data may or may not be there. It also may just be remnants from older games (like SWSH), and not indicative of whether it'll be back (DLC or otherwise).

Datamined from their CDN online. The game doesn’t have it for *all species* .

Pokemon HOME flagging seemingly legal pokemon as untradable
theSLAYER replied to Cyndaboss's topic in Pokémon Legality
Sorry to burst your bubble, but it is likely illegal. At first glance, the name looks legal: However if you go into the trash bytes of the name (trash bytes -> bytes in data after the name is terminated. After the 0x00, in this case the 0x00 is from $08 to $09): there's extra characters at the end, after the Korean name! If you convert all the hex to UTF16 string: You see te from Omanyte. It is normal for Pokemon to have trash bytes in their nickname. However, IIRC, it isn't normal for Korean unevolved Pokémon to have English trash bytes in their name, especially from the English species name. In this case, I reckon someone hatched/genned a English Omanyte, then changed the language in PKHeX, not realizing the trash bytes would remain. And to preempt the 'why PKHeX doesn't validate trash bytes?', I think it tried but what happens is that there are many many scenarios that trash bytes can exist. And they vary from game to game. And some transfers removed trash bytes. I remember PKHeX used to validate basic trash bytes for a while but no idea what happened to it. In any case I don't think Switch games check them for trades, but HOME clearly does. -
Best if you don't. you will likely mess things up. The only instance where a pokemon has no tracking number, is that it enters HOME from it's own origin game. A BDSP mon with no tracking number cannot exist out of BDSP, for example
-
Different servers may have different commands, but generally it’s a trade command (!trade or ?trade I reckon) + attach the file with that command. then the server’s bot would DM your account and give you a link code when it’s ready.
-
In PKHeX, hold down Control on your keyboard and mouse click the textbox for OT/Nickname, if I’m not mistaken. It’ll show you the full range of data, which is ‘name, terminator, and bytes that is after the terminator (known as trash bytes)’. While Pokémon can normally have some trash bytes, I reckon you have illegal trash bytes. anyhow, don’t hack Pokémon and use them online against unsuspecting people. That’s against our rules.
-
Check the trash byes of your OT and Nickname.

Pre-Home Regular Living Dex 1.0.43
theSLAYER replied to SeanOng's topic in Events Help and Questions
For example: Even though PKHeX marks it as legal, Zeraora was introduced in USUM. Thus no way that's legal. Some events would have preset 'origin games' and some events origin games depends on what game receives it, so you're gonna have to double check them all. most likely. But online hack checks are a bit iffy sometimes, so it isn't a guarantee. -
Pre-Home Regular Living Dex 1.0.43
theSLAYER replied to SeanOng's topic in Events Help and Questions
yes and no. Past events can be injected into UM, provided their data is legal, including Origin Game being correct. As for Gen 7 events, you need to be sure the Origin Game is correct; not every Gen 7 event could be redeemed on UM, so be sure to keep an eye of that. Yes, if you transfer them using HOME legitimately and they were legal before the transfer, should be fine. Just don't edit them after transfer. -
It’s almost as tho you didn’t read the response to this thread. The message right above you it’s a known issue because of.. well, read the reply above yours ><

Pre-Home Regular Living Dex 1.0.43
theSLAYER replied to SeanOng's topic in Events Help and Questions
You didn’t hold down control on the exclamation mark.. you didn’t show the pop-up.. so I wouldn’t fully know what’s the issue.. Anyway you mentioned Gen 3 event Pokémon, so I’m guessing PCNY? Certain old event Pokémon don’t have all the generated algo and other stuff documented, so they’re not coded into PKHeX. Thus *those* would show up illegal. If it’s from the Event Gallery, and you injected them into the correct games without modifications, you don’t have to worry about them being illegal. They just *appear* illegal. -

can you hold down control on your keyboard, and mouse click the red exclamation mark? Then take a screenshot of the pop-up? -
Pre-Home Regular Living Dex 1.0.43
theSLAYER replied to SeanOng's topic in Events Help and Questions
No, because if we did so it'll exceed the amount of Pokémon that can be stored in a save. pcdata.bin holds as much as a save can hold. It has *some* event Pokemon, not all. If you want event pokemon, you can just freely inject whichever you want, either from event gallery or PKHeX Mystery gift database. -
Genned BDSP shinies but with extra steps
theSLAYER replied to Desmondcsz's topic in Saves - Files and Requests
If we go the super conservative route, then yes, that is true. Having clones in any capacity would by risky. Do note that there are situations that natural clones can be generated, and by the same token, those would be risky too, since HOME isn't very well programmed and they don't appear to keep very good documentation to prevent stuff from being flagged (example would be new events wouldn't be allowed for trades until they are whitelisted). Do keep in mind that the appetite for risk varies from person to person, so how comfortable would you be with the knowledge that GF/ILCA doesn't check these things super seriously nor in a super detailed fashion, and where do you draw the line for what kind of clones are acceptable, are up to you. While true, anything with a Tracker that has entered a different person's HOME gets the tracker rerolled, ESPECIALLY if the existing tracker is already in HOME. -
Responding in case no one replies you: I have the file in one of my collections uploaded to the site. Could be useful to you if you can perform save editing (to inject it directly to your save), or to receive from sysbot via a trade (provided the bot doesn’t change any of the data, including the HOME tracker).

PKHeX question (regarding Evolutions)
theSLAYER replied to King_Super_Scourge1987's topic in Pokémon Legality
Any modification to your save would be cheating per se, but it depends on whether the cheat is possible or impossible. Our stance is to not allow the usage of significantly hacked Pokémon against unsuspecting j players. changing only species to something possible, let’s say Onix to Steelix (given that it meets evolution requirements), isn’t something that is significantly hacked, since you edited a value that is possible to acquire in-game. An example of something not possible by the game (as in a change the game is unable to perform) would be changing from a non-shiny to a shiny [the games don’t modify PID of something already owned] -
Yes but no. The generation method for their PID is not known, so anything you generate will be legal. Tho I suspect it is using some form of xoroshiro, so if the generation method ever get found, anything you generate would be discovered to be illegal.
-
You’re not contributing an event, so your post has been moved. I’ll upload one at some point.
-
then it's illegal. it actually matters. PKHeX doesn't reverse calculate it, cause imagine how slow it'll be for every save, but if someone were to grab the details of your mon, they would be able to identify that it is hacked.
-
it is an event raid, or a base raid in the game?
