Kaphotics

In the 5th gen, Pokemon hatched from eggs keep the trashbytes the had from the name "Egg" (or the equivalent in whatever language they're from), this is usually overwritten by the new name when the Pokemon hatches but it is possible to see with some spanish Pokemon as their eggs are named "Huevo".

http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1962525 This has pefectly normal Trash Bytes (second xFFFF is the terminator sequence from the name Huevo).

http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=466144 This is a hack as it is missing the terminator sequence from the name Huevo.

It's legal

Just because it has an origin language of Spanish doesn't mean that the egg originated from a Spanish game. Upon hatching the origin language hex will change.

the save file stores the mac address of the system when you connect to WiFi

whenever you try to connect again, it checks to see if that mac address is the current mac address. If it's not, it clears the records. No, you can't change systems because the MAC address changed.

it's a pdf file not a word document

use adobe acrobat

edit: Nope. Use an online PDF to .doc converter.

I RNGed my ID/SID combo to be the upper and lower extremes of the possible values (65536/00000) and the LA flags it as an illegal Trainer ID

Well to be fair it's not 65536 (it's 65535). Thanks dewey

RAM Editing and AR code development:

The relevant data can be edited in real time in game @ ~0x2229CB0 in US games. Go ahead and change certain values and see how the game reacts!

Here's a template for a code (containing a pointer) that will do a targeted overwrite.

94000130 FFFB0000
B2000024 00000000
X0024FCC YYYYYYYY
D2000000 00000000

The pointer points to the start of the first occupant, which is 0x246AC in the save file. So say you want to edit Helper 1's sprite.

New Pointer = 0x920 + 0x24CCC + 0x2A

(default pointer-start in sav + helper1offset + spriteoffset)

Pointer: 0x25616

X of pointer becomes 2, to write only 1 byte

YYYYYYYY becomes 0000005A, to set spriteID to 5A - Skyla

Code becomes:

94000130 FFFB0000
B2000024 00000000
20025616 0000005A
D2000000 00000000

Activate in game and Skyla will be your first assistant. Note however you have to change her name and responses too, use the same method though

Bonus:

(Select) Avenue Shops are always in stock!

94000130 FFFB0000
B2000024 00000000
0002507C 00000000
00025140 00000000
00025204 00000000
000252C8 00000000
0002538C 00000000
00025450 00000000
00025514 00000000
000255D8 00000000
D2000000 00000000

Activate once you start talking to the shopkeeper. Once you buy an item, you can activate again! Even though it says it's not in stock, you can still purchase.

Trivia, Activities, (unlikely for Stats) are most likely transferred with Metadata so that when met on GTS / etc they are able to do every interaction. Further research in that area is needed, if cared.

Location names are kept as a hex number, localization just changes what is displayed. They essentially set a pointer value that tells the game which text entry to display.

Japanese games will show (in japanese, not the romanization) Sangi Ranch, and English games show Floccesy Ranch.

sangi ranch

there hasn't been a new version since around august, so any localization hasn't happened

Here's PRC for the versions of BBVW2 (version 1.0)

The megaupload link would be more out of date than anything in this thread

When I opened a programm or a .txt file of PokeStock there a only some curious letters (like this: Eƒtƒ@ƒCƒ‹‚ðŠJ) inside instead of japanese ones.

Is there any way how I can fix that?

Or is it possible to translate those letters into Japanese or even English?

Thanks in advance.

use the localized files that are provided in the thread

I notice there are reveal codes for BW1

B2W2 have different offsets and the B1W1 code just read from a given memory location. If you wanted it for the new games, just replace the offsets with the new ones. Nobody has converted it because it was a testing code.

Remember, ARs can give different parameters.

http://projectpokemon.org/forums/showthread.php?16681-Gen-3-Lua-Scripts

vba-rr and other vba versions can run scripts that interpret the memory in real time. you can find out how to run them with a simple google search, it's pretty easy

Any chance we can get an updated docs upload with the AR codes?

Awesome work by the way, I played the crap out of Volt White and I'm looking forward to rocking BB2.

AR codes are the same for the retail games. All Drayano does is compile them for you ahead of time...

Is it possible to get both on the same game?

no.

When you fuse, it stores the Zek/Resh in the save file. When you unfuse, that stored Zek/Resh is re-added to the party. It only stores one, hence only one Kyurem can be fused at a time. If you attempt to unfuse a Kyurem when a Zek/Resh is not stored, you get a bad egg. In general, only have one fusion on your game at a time.

not possible

Use Lua scripts and Enciclopedia Pokemon instead.

EXCELLENT ! Thanks for the info *-*

Now there are a few hex that i dont understand, following your table it starts in the order of the game from floccesy ranch and onwards, im editing the file 3_000 on CrystalTile2 (from narc a/2/7/3 hidden grottos) it starts normally with CE00 (dunsparce) and also contains Marril (B700) and herdier (FB01) which are correct... but what im confused about is the 0A & 1E, are these fillers?

Also is there any hex editor that can show me the tables in the same order as the ones you posted? because in CT2 they are in order but they dont show all the values on the same line like your tables.

Here´s a Screenie just in case.

[ATTACH]10220[/ATTACH]

pretty sure those are levels (it's been awhile)

there's ground items and dowsing items

Thanks for this, great to be able to play a harder version on my first playthrough.

Just registered to mention that the "Habitat" button in the Pokedex doesn't work, it gives me a black screen and I have to hard reset. I tried to access it after getting the starter pokemon, so I'm not sure if it works elsewhere in the game. It might be an easy fix, might not, but I didn't see it in the known bugs list so I thought I would mention it.

If it's an easy fix, it could be really useful given the new/altered pokemon locations compared to the original.

Habitats do not get changed by simply changing the encounter table, they are in another file that has yet to be deciphered. It's probably crashing because the data is mismatching between habitat and encounter table. It won't be a simple fix, and won't be fixed (at all).

Just use the uploaded location listings provided by Drayano.

first trainer settings, offsets after the pkm data; trainer data starts at 0x0000

0x138-0x157 - Trainer Name (0x20 bytes)
0x158-0x183 - Trainer Class (0x2C bytes)
0x184-0x217 - Trainer Intro (0x94 bytes)		~ close each entry with 00 F0 01 BE 00 00 then pad with FF
0x218-0x2AB - Trainer OnDefeat (0x94 bytes)		~ ^.. might be "wait for A button press to continue"

0x340-0x3D3 - Trainer Extra? (0x94 bytes)		~ ^

note: 0xFFFE (FE FF) stands for line break

You can do editing of the tournament in the RAM if you choose so. Upon accessing the PWT Tournament menu, t_download_save.c brings up the tournament; the data for the tournament begins at (english offsets)

Bot Tournament: 0x02293BE8 w2 / 0x02293BC8 b2

Mid Tournament: 0x02294E28 w2 / 0x02294E08 b2

Top Tournament: 0x02296068 w2 / 0x02296048 b2

0x1240 gap between tournaments positions, because there's stuff right before the data itself (t_download_save.c)

That way you can make changes on the fly instead of editing the save file each time you want to tinker with an unknown byte. With that said, there has to be a setting to choose what sprites to use (would special music be set too for the Region Leaders?), and if trainers tend to use certain combinations for their team. There's 4 slots for trainers and data, there has to be a flag that signifies either a trainer or PKM isn't used. Also, the whole "rigging" of the tournament for opponents.

Pal Pad battles do not have a legality check. Random Matchup does.

Since this topic is in regards to why you can't get on RM with them... you won't be getting an answer because this goes against our anti-cheating policy.
