Guys i've got a good news and a bad news.

Good: i found a guy with a legit Mystery Ticket WC in FireRed

Bad: he can't extract the save file

I got my DS R4 for 20$. Had to buy a new memory card for it though. If he's willing to help, I'd be willing to contribute some money to help buy him one. I only have about 9$ right now though.

About secret bases, you might already have this info but... http://furlocks-forest.net/wiki/?page=Secret_Base_Data

Have you expanded that structure? I know you are not prone to editing, but I think creating secret bases could be fun (specially chansey filled ones), or being able to export/import them from other savefiles. Modifying pokémon and trainer data is in fact really trivial.

Also, have you considered github or another online repository for source code?

I feel like (to keep things as legit as possible) that secret bases that you create should require Pokemon/items from you collection. Where's the fun in making a secret base with 6 LV.100 Chancey and all the rarest items, none of which you actually own. Hunting the items down and raising the Pokemon is the fun part. The secret base is the payoff.

I guess I can do this for Purified Pokemon and the Mt Battle Johto Starters. As for the special moves from Pokemon box that will be impossible due to Pokemon not showing up as being from Pokemon Box.

1) I think I fixed the problem with that.

Edit: Hotfix is up.

2) I like it. But that would be difficult to find the values to. If you know of any cheat codes to activate any of these events in Emerald or Ruby/Sapphire let me know and that may help further my research.

3) Sounds easy enough. I may implement that.

There's a gen 3 Action Replay thread on these forums somewhere. Semi recently somebody posted codes for the clearout sale and Surskit I think.

Here it is.

The GBA and the DS read that the cart is inserted. But just after the Gameboy logo, they stuck on a white sceen t.t anyway this cart was considered lost, so i received back the money back from the seller and i bought another french sapphire that is arriving, hope it will work >.<

My games do that all the time as well. Just try taking it out or cleaning it. It should be fine.

I was doing a shiny eggs search for a Treecko egg I'm trying to hatch. I clicked on the location of the Roselia egg that showed up as shiny and I think that's when I got the error. I wasn't able to repeat it. I was also clicking on my eggs in Triggers PC to make sure I had a backup of the egg before I clicked on the egg location finder.

Edit: I was thinking about the trader in Mauville and mixing records. Even if you can't implement the Mauville Pokemon Center people into the game/being able to trade with the trader. Would there be any chance you could do a Surskit check, Lilycove blowout sale or the Berry Master Visiting Lilycove?

I'm not sure how Daisy Oak works in the Fire Red/Leaf Green carts but it would be cool if you could use Triggers PC to get a daily massage. Maybe one per save.

Hotfix is up.

Also a helpful tip. It will usually be helpful if you tell me what game types you're moving from and to. AKA Your PC/GBA, Pokemon Box, or ColosseumXD. Those are the different Pokemon formats so if a Pokemon changes format that may be a key in finding the problem.

I have a suggestion then. We need a Triggers PC bug report form/template.

I have a terrible memory. I try my best and I try to be helpful. But I have the same problem with Ebay listings. I always forget something.

Edit: Part of it was also remembering when you asked somebody to put the error code in spoiler tags before. And I think when you told me to mention that the spoiler tags were for a bug report.

trigger_death said:

Hmm. One question. Was a Pokemon previously highlighted from either searching/ShinyEgg/MirageIsland Results or using a Pokemon event?

Yes, sorry I forgot to mention that. It's happened multiple times with multiple saves. I finally figured out how to replicate it.

I was trying to make/scan a save for my best friend, to get her a shiny. All I got was Hulk-level rage. I went through probably 30 saves and maybe 3-5 results. No wonder Invader TAK is having such terrible luck.

I keep getting this really annoying error.

I add a save and then I try to move a Pokemon/egg to it and save. It gives me a save error and then another error when I click on manage saves to remove the save.

Post it up.

trigger_death said:

That's a nice secret base design. Also you have room for one more decoration.

I can make it so you can withdraw funds from Your PC only if you run out in your main save. Do you think I should do it automatically and notify the user or ask the user to withdraw from Trigger's PC?

That's a really good question. I don't know what everybody elses funds situation is like. I have all the money from my personal saves in Triggers PC and I just transfer it as needed. Anybody else have an idea?

As for my secret base. I'm really happy with the current design. I don't know what else I could add that wouldn't ruin the look for me. As far as my tastes go, it's perfect.

(I have over 1,500 eggs across 2 Pokemon Box saves if anybody wants them to scan for shinnies. Squirtle, Roselia and Ralts.)

trigger_death said:

Sharing with each of your games? Yes.

Sharing with other people? That's a good idea. I can create a file format that can be shared, imported, and exported and stored in Trigger's PC. I may make it so you can choose to include or exclude the trainer to fight.

Strange... I posted this like 20 minutes ago and it didn't post.

Edit: I can even add a silent addition feature for secret bases where it adds a base without telling you where it is.

Edit 2: Here's my secret base that I can't wait to share.

All my secret bases are registered so adding random bases around Hoenn to unoccupied spots would be so damn awesome.

My secret base. I tried to incorporate the Regi dolls since I have the actual Decoration Present and it's one of my most treasured pieces in my gaming collection. Sadly, they just didn't fit anywhere.

Plaques are from Sapphire (Gotta love the trader) and so is the second Contest statue. I did beat them twice to 100% both games but I also just love how it looks in my base like that. I'm really only missing the Emerald Battle Frontier stuff and this has been a quest of mine since I started playing gen 3.

One small suggestion for Triggers PC. I've been breeding on my Emerald save to get legit shinnies. (Arceus bless you for that) I ran out of money after buying back my Squirtle and tried to buy back Roselia. Would you be able to make it so you can use any of your funds to withdraw Pokemon from the daycare? I have over 5 million stored in Triggers PC thanks to that whole beating the Elite 4 200 times nonsense I did a few days ago. I can't imagine it would be too difficult since you made it work with evolving Pokemon using items along with all the other magic you've made happen.

EDIT: It's so awesome how we both have the spikes mat, duskull doll and big tree in our bases as well as we both went for the Regirock doll. People with great taste think alike I guess.

trigger_death said:

Whew! Just finished making pictures of every secret base location for the Secret Base Support. Check it out.

That is so damn helpful. Seriously, thanks! I never got to experience hunting down my friends secret bases back in the day. This woulda been so useful and still would be if you could mix records.

Speaking of that. Would it be possible for us to share our secret bases with eachother using Triggers PC?

trigger_death said:

2) I'm aware of the Party thing, that's because there's still some extra workaround I have to put in to make sure you're valid. to place and that you don't overflow. I shall fix that soon.

3) That's sadly intended. What you're supposed to do is turn off pickup mode and click on a Pokemon. Pickup a non-selected Pokemon, or click on an empty space.

Perfect. I'm out of bugs to report and I can't find any way to improve the tool currently. It's everything I've ever wanted without knowing I wanted it. hahahahaha Seriously man, I'm eternally grateful to you for this tool.

trigger_death said:

The sort option doesn't exist for the Key Items tab because I haven't created an order for it yet.

What would you think about an order that groups alike items such as. Keys, cards, Fossils, Common Use, then the rest are sorted by game? (I'd most likely group Emerald in with Ruby/Sapphire.

I like it.

Also, I got my shiny Squirtle! So here's the other 641 eggs I have leftover. Good luck getting a shiny Squirtle of your own with these eggs if you haven't yet.

Edit: Now it has a bunch of Roselia eggs. Thanks to Triggers PC for making gen 3 shiny hunting something that can be finally done, I picked up my 2013 off and on Roselia shiny hunt. I quit after I found 3 shiny Zigzagoon and 2 of them within 24 hours of eachother (down to the same hour even, 10-11 AM).

Three things I've found when moving multiple Pokemon in Triggers PC. Party Pokemon don't get highlighted like PC Pokemon do when you move them. I also tried putting 4 of my gen 3 2016 shinnies (4 in a year? That's insane for me!) in my Fire Red party. They were all in a row and Triggers PC wouldn't deposit them into the party and auto fill the slots like it does in the PC.

The final thing. Personally, it drives me insane. When you're moving multiple Pokemon at once, then you place them. When you start highlighting more Pokemon to be moved, the first batch gets moved as well. I always expect the first batch got de-selected when I stopped moving them.

trigger_death said:

You'll have to save them in-game to update the values for the current day. VBA seem to overwrite the save on closing the game so you may not even have to save.

So even with your tool, it's still incredibly tedious to check Mirage Island. My saves are in my downloads folder, Triggers PC folder and VBA as well as a few other places. So moving them to the VBA folder, saving them and then copying the VBA files to the respective locations. As well as renaming them. I think I'll just check every time I update a save. Because doing it everyday is not worth my time. At this point, I'm still tempted to just use Action Replay. I've waited 10 years too long.

Edit:

Got a shiny Squirtle from your save, Haxaras [ATTACH=CONFIG]13464[/ATTACH]

Worked for my Japanese Ruby save, if you want, I can give it "back" to you.

These offers are getting tempting, not gonna lie. But the reason I re-made my living dex to have me as the OT. It makes the Pokemon feel more personal I guess. I had over 12 3rd gen shinnies and not a single one had me as the OT. Including the ones I migrated and lost.

I found a shiny Oddish and Mankey in the past month or so and then there was the Omanyte I found could be shiny thanks to Triggers PC. I've downloaded a ton of saves off the internet and I didn't really keep any of the shinnies because none of them feel special to me.

After typing that, I remembered something. GameFAQ's has a TON of saves. They're saved in annoying formats mostly so you'd have to load them up in VBA and re-save but if you want a bunch of saves to check for shiny eggs with.

Also, congrats on the shiny squirtle. This is why I uploaded the file. 2 people got shinnies so far so at least it wasn't a wasted effort so far and I'm not gonna give up. Blastoise is one of my top 4 favorite Pokemon

This might get ignored at first because this is an edit. After you added the egg shiny check Trigger, I've been wondering if it would be possible to add a shiny check for shadow Pokemon? Sometimes they appear to be shiny in Colosseum but aren't when you purify and sometimes they're shiny when you purify them.

Invader TAK said:

Nothing. Oh well.

I'm not gonna stop until I get a shiny so I'll keep updating the save. I'll also share my Kanto living dex (Egg form, minus the Nidoran's and legendaries) as well.

I've been wondering something about Mirage Island. How do I change the values for that? I get a notification every time saying my early game Japanese Ruby save matches a Pokemon so I'm playing through it now. But since all my files are .sav, would I have to load them up in VBA or play them all to change the Mirage Island values?

Vladcik said:

It'll not working even on Fire Red / Leaf Green.

If you autofire for each reset you'll have everytime the SAME seed and so everytime the same pokemon generated at the same time.

The best tip for that is to set X emulators, no background pause and so you can play the X emulators at the same time :3

I'm sorry haha OTL

I've one matching. I can hatch it and give it to you if you want ?

Nah, don't worry about it. I want all my shinnies to have me as the OT. I posted it knowing somebody might get a match. I'm glad I did, at least one person got a shiny out of it so far so congrats!. I'll keep making eggs until I get a match of my own. I'm considering shiny hunting in gen 3 like this if I can get them relatively fast.

Here's a Pokemon Box save with 400~ Squirtle eggs. I couldn't get a shiny. Maybe you'll have better luck.

trigger_death said:

Nicely put.

Edit: And sorry I didn't mean to force my views onto yours.

I didn't even take it like that. I was just trying to explain a point.

Also, those item sorting tabs look amazing. I've been saving the hold items and vitamins and Rare Candy from all my playthroughs. They're in a jumbled mess in Triggers PC. It will be awesome to have a way of sorting them better.

trigger_death said:

2) I'll be honest that was one of the things I was afraid of happening with the Shiny Egg feature. Creating saves for the sole purpose of generating shiny matches is reallyOP. Like rediculously OP. After laying 300 Charmander Eggs with 8 saves added I had about a 1/3 chance of getting a shiny and that only took half a day. Anyways I certainly won't stop you or be mad at you from using the tool like that. I guess I'm just still worried about someone claiming illegitimacy on the feature. :\

I've learned to not care what other people see as legitimate. I've met shiny hunters who refuse to use the shiny charm, people who said chain fishing shinnies don't count because they're too easy and 100 other dumbass requirements for legitimacy. The way I see it, Triggers PC isn't a cheating device. It's not forcing anything to be shiny. It's just reading the data and telling you which ones will be on which games. I could technically hatch all my eggs on every one of my saves. But that would take an eternity. I want to find legit shiny Pokemon (No cheating devices) as fast as possible. They're too damn hard to find, even in gen 6. I keep them to myself anyway. I don't care how common/uncommon they are. They mean more to me than to anybody else. I know their story, I encountered them. To anybody else it's just a trophy.

trigger_death said:

You can now view Egg Species with ease. This works as a setting in general and a setting for specific Your PC rows.

I've been wondering if there would be any way we could just make a checklist of sorts I guess. An example will help. I have 5 eggs that are guaranteed to hatch shiny now. My 3 Pokemon Box eggs, my shiny 5IV Feebas that was RNG'ed for me and now my Omanyte. Would it be possible to check them in a way so that way when I do an egg shinyness check, those eggs are already marked and aren't added to the results every time?

If possible, a check for Mirage Island would be nice too. I have a Japanese Ruby save and a Latias that matches Mirage Island currently. I don't really feel like playing through the save super fast to get to mirage island using that Latias. IF I even can. I'll be honest. I don't really understand the midnight thing.

I'd also be interested in sharing ID numbers and secret ID's in the hopes of expanding shiny searches.

Vladcik said:

Oh no no !

I would like something like that when we go to the save options :

A dropdown with :

- Main saves

- Secondary saves

(In my case)

With all the saves needed like actually

And if i choose "Main save" i can ony select these on the main tab :3

That sounds useful. I added a ton of extra saves to Triggers PC after the egg shiny checker was added. Now it's just cluttered after going from 5~ saves to 21~.

Edit: I kept wanting to say something about this.

trigger_death said:

I'm with you on that. I much more enjoy FRLG than RSE. I don't know what it is but the Hoenn region and theme just feels more bland to me. Of course I do love farming me some berries.

It was the complete opposite for me. I've always enjoyed RSE more than FR/LG. I played the hell out of gen 1 and put another 500 hours into my original Leaf Green save as well as several Fire Red runs. But Hoenn always felt like home to me.

Honestly though, the thing that caused me to not like those games as much, Triggers PC fixed. It always pissed me off that I could only use Kanto Pokemon. I was so sick of most of them by that point. I don't know what to do for story mode teams anymore. I've saved a good 80% of my story mode teams from gen 3 onward and you'll notice a lot of repeat Pokemon. I've used just about every one that I like multiple times.

Also, when we talk about gen 3. We always leave out Mystery Dungeon and Orre. I LOVE those games to death as well.

trigger_death said:

Sounds like a really good idea. I'll look into setting default rows.

You did fish multiple times correct? Feebas isn't a guaranteed on it's own spots which is why finding them is a pain.

And if the incorrect results are true I'd rather not use it in my tool.

I'm paranoid. I always end up fishing 4 times. I have a shiny Feebas egg and I've done it 3-4 times. I'm so done with fishing for Feebas anyway. This is why I make living Pokedexes. And thanks to your tool, if I breed them I can use it to determine if I have any shinnies.

trigger_death said:

Is that something people would want? I can certainly make it since there's already source code I can work with. I'm just wondering if people would consider it legit since finding Feebas doesn't take more than an hour or so.

An hour or so? I've hunted Feebas 3 times. The first time took 8 minutes, the second took 3 days. I don't remember the third. I might have done it 4 times actually. I know there's a Feebas finder tool posted to the forums. I never found it very useful. It gave me incorrect results and I never tested it again.

Real.96 said:

Someone offered them to me. But only a few, there isn't Chansey anyway

Only a few is more than I have right now. (Sorta) I have a few boxes of PCNY Pokemon I could share with you. But I never mentioned them because I don't know how they were generated./I don't have their origin save.
