    ok so I want to put my pc save file for Pokémon ruby onto my 3ds so I can play ruby on the go but the problem is the file format is .SA2 which I have literally no idea what it means. I tried searching google for an answer but all I find are sonic adventure 2 save editors. how do I convert it to .SAV?

    Simply rename it. Usually the content is the same, it’s merely changing the extension for recognition by different instances (like multiple profiles on VBA link)

    thank you 

    it doesnt have those options

    Frankly it might be easier for you to use a different emulator. I’m unsure that file you’ve sent, if edited, could still be read. Or that the name doesn’t change. Or that the offset for edits remain consistent. There’s way too much that can change and lead to screwups.

    Im pretty sure thats not my file since there is a beldum named STARAPTOR holding a acro bike

    You’re playing a ROM hack that has changes to species and items (thus the IDs used have been manipulated). What is displayed is based on indexes of an unmodified game.

    Also, I was being rhetorical. It is a file from your file, and it has your name. Of course it is yours, even if you can’t recognise it.

    Aldo how do I save my changes

    After you’ve set the Mon into pc/party (for changes to the Mon), I think it’s File > Export Main > sav > save file as.

    Then do what I said in the previous post. (All at your own risk).

    out of curiosity, does your emulator have options to ‘export save’ or ‘export battery file’ or something similar?

    Please explain how to do those things. I feel incompetent

    The file below, it's you isn't it? :D

    So here's what I did:
    1. Renamed your file to .gba
    2. Tried to use this tool to extract the save from within.
    3. I obtained this

    4. Tried to open both in PKHeX. Only save1 opens (the save0 file is a false positive)

    So what you probably should do.
    1. Keep a save unmodified backup of your file.
    2. By the way, I am concerned about the numbers in the filename. Make a few more saves, see if they change.
    3. Once you're done editing the save, use HxD, go to the location listed in save1's file name (in this case, it is 0x93010. I cannot guarantee it'll remain constant) and paste overwrite that location.
    4. You can now try using that new modified randomnumeral.sav in your emulator.

    If it is too complicated, consider switching to a simpler emulator.

    Hello, I'm doing the same with my Manaphy, however I don't know how I can change Method_1 into Link Trade(Egg), would you please help me to know the correct way? Thank you.

    if I’m not mistaken: 

    Met location -> change it to link trade (egg)

    Hatched location -> can be any valid hatching locations

    Delete the all the files and the entirely folder. Then redownload and extract to a new folder that had nothing else in it. Then let us know.

    I play on GPemu and I go to the area where it shows your bag and party and I click save. I wait for it to finish saving and close out from the x near the minimize button

    Save twice in game. Then close the emulator. Then look for the correct file in your emulator. You probably got the wrong file and it’s saving somewhere else.

    on the flash boy software, theres an option to specify the cart as a flash cart, and you can write a rom file. idk if thats gonna work but it could

    Not sure if you should do that. I personally would recommend it.
     

    If you still decide to do it despite being warned not to, remember it is all at your own risk. if you’re gonna do it, at least keep a safe backup of the ROM before proceeding.

    Thank you for your answer. It would be nice if PKHeX itself could find a valid PID or tell if there's no valid PID for the stats combination.

    If I remember correctly, the dev doesn’t want to bloat the program with functionality that already exists and dealt with by other programs. So that’s unlikely to happen.

    im using the flash boy cyclon software

    Reportedly only GB operator and Joey Jr can overwrite the ROM sectors of repro carts, but I’ve not tested it myself.

    I’m saying this because for repro carts, the saves are actually stored in the ROM. Meaning if you want to edit the save, you’re actually editing a section of the ROM sector on the repro cart.

    Suffice to say you’ll be easier off editing the save of a retail cart, not a repro cart.

    oh ok thx do you know of anything that does support rom hacks

    while it is true that PKHeX don’t support ROM hacks, it would coincidentally (not by design) support saves of ROM hacks that don’t change the save structure.

    Anyhow, looking at your file under a hex editor, it’s pure garbage.

    All values should not be FF. It means it wasn’t dumped properly. Or maybe you’ve been using state saves, and not actually saved in-game.
     

    Even save editors that supports ROM hacks would not be able to read this. This file may have the size and extension of a Gen 3 save, but this isn’t a save.
