Heh, it is -- byte-for-byte identical.

Can confirm this QR is identical to the one I got last week.

I would love a PM of your US code -- I want to see if the memecrypto'd data is identical to EUR

You don't understand the memekey system -- they have an RSA private key with the singular purpose of signing the magearna codes. The codepath taken depends on the memekey index, found after the POKE magic -- in this case, index 9 is reserved for I choose you cap pikachu (it was a reserved, error path in Sun/Moon). Also, the species field gets used to decide what to display in the scan window, so they have to overwrite it.

No. They're game ID bitmasks, among other things. First byte FF = Sun, Moon, US, UM -- FC = US, UM. Also if it's like the magearna event the pikachu species and forms will get overridden by the game's parsing code regardless of what's in the QR anyway >.> (Magearna QR codepath does if (species != magearna) { species = magearna; }) Last 8 bytes are SHA1(first 0x58) but that's standard memecrypto.

It has not been posted anywhere -- I was asked by the person who sent me it not to share it publically yet.

Yep -- once it's usable I can post the cleaned up EU/US code, too.

We already have a JP code from the JP movie.

Pretty sure you should be able to just swap the entries around if you're using a CFW that has RO's hash check patched. Pretty sure luma does this by default? Also you can replace the CRO pretty readily with luma's layeredFS thing nowadays.

According to the list of big preorder bonuses on the Japanese USUM website, it looks like pre-ordering at certain retailers (7-11?) will get you a serial code for a big malasada and a fresh water. Relevant text: "どうぐシリアルコード（おおきいマラサダ・おいしいみず）（『ウルトラサン・ウルトラムーン』のいずれか購入）".

I am pretty sure it's possible. Also..."compile it using a compiler" -- this is....pretty irrelevant to the process of making a tool. The compiler is literally an afterthought, as is the IDE used to write it. The code itself is all that you should really consider. (And PKHeX already has C-Gear code, I think, as I said.)

Pretty sure PKHeX supports C-Gear stuff nowadays, doesn't it? (Also, not sure why the IDE matters, or why we'd not just use VS..)
