First of all I understand that this is very early, and this is basically an alpha of the support ZA will be getting in the months to follow, so I understand that messing with my saves could cause issues.

That being said I was looking through the Event Flags and I have no idea which one the first Link Trade would even be as well as all the following ones, was hoping to just check it off, as when I tested evolving my Machamp using PKHex, I wasn't that surprised that the mission didn't trigger as chances are PKHex triggers something closer to catching a fresh Machamp after deleting the old Machoke rather than an evolution. 

I also noticed the Legality becomes unable to match an encounter from origin game, but that happens with most evolutions if you trigger it with PKHex for Legends ZA currently with the only two not triggering it being Gabite back into a Gible and Cleffa into Clefairy and Clefable for some reason, after testing it on 15 or so mons without setting.

But then you did say that the legality was something you were aware of currently, and to not bother reporting it right now since your working on fixing it. 

Everything aside, you probably didn’t “evolve” your Machamp right; you need to assign some other trainer’s name to Latest Not OT Trainer (Handling Trainer)

Unless the Mon was found as a Gible, you can’t revert a Gabite to Gible and expect legality.

while evolving via Link Trade deserved its own thread, everything else you mentioned doesn’t 

I suppose it’s less of an error and more of a game specific issue. The flag ID probably differed between DP and Pt. Thanks for reporting!

When I try to download MGDB, PKHeX launch me this:

 

Not a plugin of mine. The end of the plugin says AutoModPlugins.

Mod edit: If an old plugin is giving you issues, update the plugin. The program tells you which plugin is being problematic.

So i was going to fight the mega frosslas but my game just kept loading so i closed it and now my game just doesnt load, it gets stuck in the loading page and never loads, ive tryied on different emulators and nothing, i just wanna keep playing the game w my save

Did you try placing the save back to the Switch to see if this happens? Did you use some cheats before this?

Thread locked.

1. Is the timeframe where the event is distributable retained when converted? (i.e. do you have to set the 3DS to the valid time period for it to work)

The dates involved are not part of wonder card. Instead, it’s part of the bin/save as related to the local distributor apps

example:

2. Would the distribution have the message it had similar to the OG wifi distribution (like below) when converted?

title: already part of wonder card, so yes
 

Flavour text/message, no.
It is data unique to the wonder card full. Initially, wonder cards were data extracted from saves. However, I always see the temporary splashed flavour text during card redemption and eventually figured it had to be stored temporarily in RAM. That’s the beginning for wonder card full.

The tool doesn’t try to predict what the flavour text would be, and also wouldn’t be interested to allow users to add it, as it could increase the chances of people submitting fakes (still happens to this day)

ANYHOW

Going back to what I was saying, if you’re downloading local distributor app off the internet, it’ll be piracy. Chances are high so I’m gonna lock this thread.

I’ve got a crappy full card maker here:

in any case, downloading those apps are piracy, if you don’t happened to own a dev unit that came with those apps. So don’t download them

just FYI.

Sorry, forgot about this.

Let's look at it this way: In most scenarios, even if the data of Pokémon is changed/modified, the PID will remain intact, as it is used for shiny determination. (let's say it'll be used as a sprite for a museum painting, for example).

Additionally, prior to Gen 6, the PID is the key used the encrypt the Pokemon's data. Meaning as long as they store the Pokémon somewhere, whether encrypted or decrypted, searching the PID will result in some hits.

Now, I used HOF extractor to see what the PID is. Then, I searched your entire save (note the values I used accounted for endianness, so every 2-byte word is swapped; example 1W 2X 3Y 4Z => 4Z 3Y 2X 1W)

I found exactly two hits. These hits are both the HOF data, one for main save, one for backup save (yes, a single Gen 5 save contains a main and a backup)

In conclusion, as expected, besides the HOF data  your Reshiram data does not exist in your save.
So back to the drawing board, and create the IVs yourself.

Under the impression that SV can still trade and raid locally etc.

I've traded recently (to transfer items), and raided recently (use hacked Switch to find shiny raids via raidcrawler).

I only used the hall of fame extractor you created and I need to do a reverse RNG search to get the stats do you know how to do that ? 

You could try Pokefinder, gen 5 mode.

Sorry english is not my main language, what is IIRC? but where i can put that seed so the zygarde shiny appears at the end of the max lair? 

IIRC -> if I remember correctly.

its less English and more internet-lingo. Don’t worry bout it.

As far as I know, the seed for encounter stats are independent from the seed of the rental mons. It’s not part of the save, so you can’t input it.

IIRC the seed from the plugin is sufficiently random and thus should Be fine

i found a xy french save on project pokemon with a bunch of wcs but they are used and need to remove the used flag, is that ok?

Provided the WCs are legal, would be okay

Thanks for the clarification on Miraidon, my house mate has Scarlet, so I'll borrow his virtual game cart and start a new save for it.

Otherwise I assume the steps I mentioned as my initial thought will work? Just dragging the wc9 into my save twice for each game version.

Yes, drag in each wc9 in for each Mon, then set the correct game version.

Could you provide the results of what you’ve acquired too?

Yeah, that's what I was worried about... Even if it's possible in theory with an astronomically low chance, it's still marked as illegal (because it is), right?

Possible in theory but chances are so so low that it would have to be faked.

Thanks alot for the clarification!! I think I'll just roll with different TID and SID since they're already different in the other games. Makes me more in peace than having it marked as illegal.

What you could do is just start a new Japanese game, to get the TID/SID/check what possible OT you could type out. Then use replace the trainer details on the copy of the ENG save you’ll use in a JPN game, then to catch the Mew.

In its own bubble it will be legal (and PKHeX will flag as legal), but when you account for everything in the save/in the world we live in outside of the game, then it’s actually illegal

(have the Mew in the save with *any other Eng Pokemon that shares your TID/SID*, then use Verify PKM button, and the output would flag it.)

However, nothing stops you from keeping the Mew, even if it’s illegal. 
 

If your OCD stops you from owning anything illegal, then RNG the TID/SID. This way, even when it is flagged illegal/fishy, you can rest easy.

damn that seems kinda hard as well ahshshs, i really want to shiny hunt zygarde but im playing on a jailbroken switch so i cant play online, im in a path with abombasnow and a frosslass on the team but still i rarely can win, he´s allways killing the other two

To be honest once you get used to it it’s not hard. Time consuming, potentially but not as bad as actual max lair. I mean anything can OHKO anything, even your partners.

if you’re stuck with certain party members, you can always raid something else first, to get it to refresh on next run.

Hi, Firstly I'm sorry if this in the wrong forum or off-topic.

With the baldy handled shiny box legendary event that is currently going on, I checked 4 different EB games here in Aus, and they were all out of codes early Friday morning. Me and my house mate want 1 of each for out dex's, and I have never edited pokemon saves before.

My main save file is now on my Switch 2, but I still have my Switch 1 with atmosphere.

So my question is, what is the best way to get the event pokemon?

I can see on the download page for the .wc9 file that I can either drag it onto PKHeX, or use Switch Gift Data Manager?

And would it matter if I'm using Violet for Miraidon?

And if I want to give 1 of each to my house mate?

My initial thought is just add 2 of each into my boxes on a new save on my Switch 1, and trade to my house mate and use Home for my own?

Have to use Scarlet for Miraidon.

tho you could always inject it then switch the origin version after

Would you possibly be interested in data mining my save to try and see if any data of my reshiram is in my save i am new to these methods is it possible to get my reshiram’s data back ? I saw your detailed posts any help is appreciated 

Maybe give this a try first

ppl, can i change the rental pokémon and the pokemn that appear in the raid besides the legendary? so i can beat zyarde more easly to shiny hunt him?

To my understanding, hacking the team is a pain. It is much easier to use a cheat that guarantees 1 hit knockout with any attack, but keep in mind the raid boss can OHKO you as well.

So the entire Dynamax lair becomes a different game, where you try to get rental's with high speed or moves with priority.

Hello I am new here and I don’t know if this is the proper place to post this when I was a kid i traded away my reshiram for a zoroark on the gts thinking zoroark was very rare or something because I watched the movie 

I noticed I have my hall of fame data of my reshiram I tried a extractor I found in here but I can’t view any more important details past moves and the PID 

I would like to recover the date I met my reshiram and IV’s and EV’s if possible to make him as close to the original as possible 

i have his move set but that’s it I have PKHex I understand I’ll be creating a clone of it 

It’s not that the extractor failed, it’s that Gen V hall of fame doesn’t contain all the data.

Hello! First of all thanks for writing this post, I'm playing around with programming a shiny hunting bot for 3DS and I need easy access to shinies for testing (imagine doing a full odds test every time you make a little change lol). I tried a cheat I found online that allows for different shiny rates (88 / 50 / 15) but it constantly makes the game crash. This works FLAWLESSLY!

I did have two issues:

1. Using the .code file copied from the mounted exefs partition in GM9 didn't work. The contents don't match the search string.

2. I'm using the latest release of CTRTools, and the provided command for extracting the code.bin using CTRTools doesnt work. I had to use this instead: 

ctrtool.exe --exefsdir=exefs --decompresscode exefs.bin

 

Glad to hear it is working for you!

1. I dunno if I mentioned what you did somewhere (or if I recommended it somewhere) but yeah GM9 .code extract doesn’t work. I should state that clearly in the tutorial

2. yeah I had to ping pong between various versions of the command. I should upload it just in case.

Thanks! I understand, I was playing around with the game and was happy to find SciresM’s tweet and get it to work for other games.

I downloaded the same version of VBA you have and set the flash and file size and then imported the save but it still hangs when i try to save the game. 

I’m assuming you’re using the ROM of your bootleg card, and maybe there’s issues relating to saving for the bootleg ROM. You’re gonna have to check that out yourself
