Yes.

I’m.. not sure.

I think one of the correct balls should show up no matter what in legal. And as for met data, I may be wrong but I think only the original HOME account sees it? let me test that real quick Edit: First met info still showed for me even in a different HOME account, on mobile.

You're gonna need a different way to extract this save. Bunch of garbled nonsense, and at some point started showing YO-KAI watch in the file. Presumably 3DS + Checkpoint isn't working for you. Try dumping it with TWLsaveTool.

Pokefinder doesn't work for pokemon caught in every Gen. Anyhow, different tools work for when a mon is caught within a different generation game: Also, if you can't figure any of the tools out, just use PKHeX > Tools > Data > Mystery Gift Database or Encounter Database. It'll generate a properly legal entry for you.

No idea why the mon is in quotes. In any case Pokefinder isn't for Gen 5 stuff. Read the options and menu labels more clearly. Getting gift database in PKHeX to generate one for you would be enough.

What pokemon are you trying to generate it for?

Was it in fact, showing you the green ball then? If it was showing you neither the Green or the ball you caught it in, then it'll be a problem

make a duplicate of the save, then redeem the egg in-game.

hack checks for Gen 1/2 are pretty minimal, especially when it comes to eggs, because there aren't much datapoints nor correlated stats. If you look at the stats of the Ditto and Haunter, it may be possible to determine via DV inheritance whether the Gastly is indeed real.

If it already had a tracker, then changing tracker is normal, if it enters from a different HOME account. Normally all the relevant data from the tracker is brought forward into the new tracker. Also, HOME probably displayed those entries with the Strange Ball I imagine? (the Green ball) It tends to show relevant data from the game it last came out of.

Done

Can you get me a copy of these files where you changed nothing? In the mean time I’ll take a quick look. I’m wondering if it’s evotree related but we shall see.

try the guide with PokeFinder. If you can't follow the steps to fix them then try using encounter database to generate a mon, and not change any details.

With HOME 2.0, they made an internal data structure in their servers that can hold separate partitions for a Pokemon. If I’m not mistaken, the partitions are for: LGPE, SWSH (default Gen 8), BDSP, and PLA. Typically, if you transfer a mon between games via HOME, any exclusive data (moves, balls) will get written to their respective partitions, and gets left out from the other partition. And it remains associated to the Pokémon via HOME tracker. For example, a Pokémon with Gigantamax would have the data for it in the SWSH partition, but left out from the rest. When you withdraw such a Pokémon in PLA, that byte won’t be there in the pa9, but would be given back to your Pokémon when withdrawn back in SWSH. The reverse is true for Alphas from PLA -> SWSH, as well as any unique PLA balls. They are temporarily Poke Ball and non-alpha in SWSH, but shows back up with sent to PLA. So basically, if they don’t have a valid HOME tracker with sent in from the correct game, they may become illegal when transferred to a different game via HOME. (Kinda why I did my HOME compatible living dex) by extension, the proper ball and first met location is tied and tracked by HOME tracker. You probably changed something that resulted in HOME not being able to recognise it.

Good luck. Also, the thread couldn’t be made on the Pokémon reddit. To my understanding the mods kept removing it. Probably because it’s technically hacking data via third party means and they want to have none of that; that’s just my guess.

Not every PID/EC can be completely. In that scenario, the stats are said to be ‘correlated’. Correlated means -> the values are generated sequentially back to back, in a predictable fashion/pattern, from an RNG seed. So if something ‘breaks’ the pattern, it’s obviously hacked. This doesn’t apply to most encounters but they exist, across different generations.

And you’ll still need Spinda from Bank, because currently Spinda from both GO and BDSP cannot be transferred into HOME.

In most instances, no. Unless it’s something so bad that the game alright refuses to load, they typically load Pokémon structures just fine.

Now use this with PKHeX

Oof. Are you able to save in-game. You know the menu that lets you see your Pokémon or Pokedex or Bag. Go to the option Save instead.

Alright, I’ll take a look when I get home

Upload a recent save (not state save) and I’ll take a look later.

perform “internal saving” (saving in-game via the menu inside the game, not the emulator’s menu), then look for .sav file.

What emulator are you using?
