Poke J

@Helmschrot it seems the legality check didn't work properly since these Pokemon are not legal. Those starters can't be in any ball besides the standard Poke Ball.

@droidpersonif you just want a Pokemon with the hidden ability I could breed you a Litten with Intimidate. However, the Galar starters don't have their hidden abilities released yet so you'll have to wait for those ones to become possible.

@javisoto99it appears to be an error with the current version of PKHeX. I was able to replicate the issue multiple times with Ralts that I hatched in the Battle Frontier. For some reason PKHeX is detecting that the Battle Frontier is a Platinum only location and if the egg met conditions is changed to Link Trade (Egg) it will turn legal.

By chance could you upload the file here? It'll make it easier to determine the issue.

If you can extract them from the save there is a chance that you will not have to guess on any of the data it could all be there. That's if the party is transferred in it's entirety which there is a real possibility that may be the case. EDIT @DaisyWaisyI've done some looking into what data the game stores for the Trainer House and it is a lot less then I was hoping to find. None the less this was what I was able to decipher from my save. Several trainers can be stored in the section, but I don't know how many trainers can be stored. It looks like it is a lot more then the 5 trainers that are in the house. As well, the default trainer Ace Trainer Cal does not appear in this list. -The first part of one trainers block starts with a header that has the trainers name, ID, SID, and what I believe to be the selected trainer class. There seems to be a little more data in the header, but it seems unimportant for the Pokemon information. -Each Pokemon is about 34 bytes in the list with some being less and some being a little more. -The Pokemon data that is stored that I could determine at a first look through is in the following order is the Pokemon index number, held item, moves, ID, SID, PID, temp value (unused), moves PP, IV block, EVs, Ability, and Pokemon name. At the moment I couldn't find, but it has to be there is some value that is either the Pokemon's EXP or level.

You'll run into the same legality issues if you do that and using the AR code to catch that way will discard relevant information. That is why I mapped that RAM to preserve the important information. But, in your case I'd say first try to find the Pokemon in the save file. Even though I don't know how much of the Pokemon data is transferred to the Pokewalker, you can hope that the Pokemon in their entirety transferred during friend interaction. If not the RAM dump will be your best bet then,

You’ll need to dump the complete RAM when the Pokémon is on the field and then open the RAM dump in a hex editor such as HxD. Unfortunately, with that method it’s not really suited for this task since you will be missing vital data for legality. A better method is to find them in the save since I’m going to assume it will contain more complete data. If no one helps you by next Thursday I’d be willing to help you find them in the save since you’ve peaked my curiosity.

As far as I can see Pokémon House editing isn’t apart of PKHeX so you will not be able to use that to dump then. As far as I’m aware no one has done the research to find that in the save. Also if the save is empty you might not have dumped to save properly. If the save is dumped properly and you can load it up in an emulator you might find the attach thread useful to some degree. However, extracting them directly from the save will probably give better results.

You are correct on my inconsistencies. With Darmanitan I added both Zen Mode ones so I wasn’t aware that you didn’t need to deposit one with the ability to get the Zen Form to register. Furfrow I say the 1/10 mark, but didn’t realize I was missing the left and right arrows oops. Lastly, I checked and it turns out I transferred the unbound Hoopa.

@suloku from my experience the battle/item from changes are added once the Pokemon in its base form is deposited, with all other forms needing to be deposited in that form. Keep in mind that this is a list prior to the DLC and for Pokemon that you only have to deposit the base form to get all the forms that if you add a shiny base form you will not unlock the shiny version of all the forms EX) adding shiny Arceus will only add base form shiny Arceus to the dex. HOME does add the not Bankable/HOMEable and obscure forms. So here is my list to get all the forms.

@AliceTheAlice those two patterns are only in the list so if someone transfers those Vivillion to gen 7 they would retain the pattern. There is no location that the 3DS can be set to that will result in those Vivillion patterns.

I didn’t know other iOS users couldn’t see that challenge. Also I only completed the dex this morning since someone traded me a Zacian over the GTS.

I can see and have completed the Unown challenge. The only challenges I don;t have completed are the one where you need to catch 30 Pokemon with each type of ball. I even have the dex completed and I didn't get the Megearna. I'm also on iOS so that could be causing the issue.

Unless you add the 35 Pokemon currently unavailable into your save using PKHeX which could cause your Switch to be band, you'll have to wait until next month when Pokemon HOME comes out. For the DLC Pokemon you'll have to wait until June for the first set and then November for the second set. I recommend just wait until HOME comes out to get the 35 that are currently in the game since February isn't that far off and it's a short month so you won't have to wait long for HOME.

Gen 2 to 7 Umbreon could learn Toxic with a TM. I'm going to assume that you are trying to make an Umbreon for a gen 8 save. In gen 8 Toxic is no longer a TM or TR so it can't learn the move. If you're wanting a Toxic Umbreon you'll have to wait until February when Pokemon Home comes out to transfer one from a previous gen.

Are you referring to mechanic similar to how in Sword and Shield does not allow you catch Pokemon in the Wild Area at too high of a level, but in an ORAS setting? If so ORAS does not have that limiting feature. Or are you referring to when you get a Pokemon that does not have your trainer information and how it will disobey you until you have the correct badge? If that's the case you will have to edit which badges you have, but that could mess with story elements. Or are you referring to how in Secret Bases you can have all Pokemon at level 50 or use the machine in the base to battle them at their actual level? In that scenario I don't think PKHaX or PKHeX can help you since I don't think Secret Base decorations have been researched, therefore; can not be added to the program and I don't think there is a program out there that lets you edit existing bases. Does any of these answers answer your question?

Now that I'm done school for the semester I figured that I would finish conducting tests to try and fill in the missing data in the structure, as well update the data that I was unsure about. Therefore, the original post has been updated to reflect my most recent tests and now I feel relatively certain that the presented data is accurate. I most likely will not be making any changes to the above table or carry out further tests on this subject.

Not all of them are 5 star raids. I spawned a 3 star G Max Kingler last night.

I've ran a few more tests with changing the number of badges obtained, entered the Hall of Fame, and made a new save to make sure it wasn't an issue with the save. In all of these tests as soon as I tried to release the second last Pokemon it would always come back. I'm thinking this is to try and prevent the player from missing out on double battles since the game stops you from entering a double battle if there is only one Pokemon on your team. Now I'm wondering if Pokemon Box or migrating Pokemon to gen 4 is able to mess with this restriction.

@Adilson Filho BR I've looked at your save and I think I know what is happening, but I'm not 100% sure. However, I think it has to do with that the 7th gym being a mandatory double battle and to prevent the player from getting trapped the game is stopping you from releasing your second Pokemon. I've tried adding Pokemon to the save and releasing different combinations of them and I always get stopped at the last two. So I recommend either leaving two Pokemon in your PC or remove them with PKHeX. So to answer your questions from what I think is happening: 1) Just make sure you have two caught Pokemon on your save and when you start using HMs make sure you have a Pokemon somewhere on the game that knows the move. 2) You just seem to have met the criteria the game has set out to prevent you from releasing Pokemon. See my answer for question 1. 3) No. 4) See above description, as well as, my answers for questions 1 and 2.

I might have an idea of what's going on, but without the save file I can not say for certain. Could you possibly upload the save file?

Use a hex editor I recommend HxD and delete all of the bytes after 0007FFFF.

@Ragolay I took a look at your save and it appear for some reason when you save it a whole bunch of unneeded data is added to the end of the save. So I've truncated the save to 512 KB and open just fine now in PKHeX. Just make sure the save looks to be correct. 18 - Pokémon Blanca.sav

For Black and White I know if you open your save in a hex editor and change the byte at 00020160 which is the flag for which starter you chose to one of these bytes 00 = Snivy/Defult, 01 = Tepig, or 02 = Oshawatt will change your starters of you rivals to match accordingly. Just make sure you open the save file in PKHeX and save it again using PKHeX after any manual edits you make in a hex editor since PKHeX will update the check sum.

Get them to trade you a Pokemon they caught themselves and get it from the OT tab when you check that Pokemon on PKHeX.
