This requires you use a 3ds on system nand 9.0-9.5. You CANNOT use any other firmware, nor a new nintendo 3ds, nor a 3ds on 9.x emunand.

This is not tested on non-American systems, but should work. Try it out and let me know!

This is a method based off of Yifan Lu's spider3DSTools (https://github.com/yifanlu/Spider3DSTools) to make everything in Pokemon Shuffle's shop cost zero jewels.

Screenshot:

Instructions:

1. Copy shuffleshop.bin onto your 9.X 3DS (or XL or 2DS) (no emunand/no new 3ds(the one with the C-stick)) SD card.

2. Open Pokemon Shuffle and get in-game. You should be at stage select.

3. Hit the home menu and go to the browser.

4. Go to http://bit.ly/1Grittg to run shuffleshop.bin.

5. Wait for it the crash back to the home menu.

6. Go back into Pokemon Shuffle and check the shop -- everything should be free.

Frequently Asked Questions

> What's the root directory? The Root directory of your SD card is the base folder. C: \ is the root of the C Drive, etc.

> What is emunand? Am I on Sysnand or Emunand? If you have to ask this question and/or don't know what either of those words mean, you are on Sysnand and this will work.

> The exploit isn't working! When I run it, nothing happens! Clear your 3ds browser's cache/cookies. Scroll down to the bottom of settings and hit "Initialize Save Data", then try again.

> What does this work on? This works on 2ds, Old 3ds and old 3ds XL firmwares 9.0-9.5.

> When do I trigger this? Load the website in the 3ds browser AFTER opening the game and making sure you are at the stage select screen.

Its been two weeks since I last posted here and once again thanks for the help then.

I've been having fun using ram2sav, but I do have a question regarding the ability to edit profiles in pkhex. With the digital version of these games it seems that you cannot delete people on your friends list whatsoever even after deleting their profile card, Will it be possible to edit out the friends in pss using pkhex?

They DO let you back it up (well, the physical cartridges to digital format, anyway). It's just not super-simple i.e. you can't technically restore the save. If you have a digital version, if I remember correctly, you should still be able to take the save off the SD card and XOR it.

I do recommend not to buy digital 3DS games, anyway, but that's my personal opinion (that they are crap digitally).

At this point I regret getting digital but what can I do about it, its been more than a year ago and I just learned my lesson. About this XOR you mentioned, Im going to look into that right now

I'm still trying work out the fine details for fixing corrupt data myself, since I had it happen on Alpha Sapphire, but if you look up the instructions on this site for decrypting a Powersaves backup for viewing in PKHeX, you can at the very least recover your data. Reinjecting it is what I can't seem to do without it freezing, and hopefully someone like SciresM will have some information on that.

To make the keystream file, you'll need to delete your corrupted save (hold Up + B + X when the game is booting) then get to the main menu (you don't have to start a new game. One the professor shows up, you can quit).

Before you delete your corrupted save, though, make sure to back it up with Powersaves. Yes, unfortunately you'll need to buy Powersaves (RAM2Sav is nothing like Powersaves, FYI), but it's much cheaper than buying a Gateway (which can't be used on 9.3 or 9.4, for the record).

When told to XOR the files, make sure you use the Pokemon Save Decrypter that has been posted on this site. Regular XOR tools won't work.

Then you should be able to open your Y save in PKHeX. Start a new game on Y and get to the point where you can save. Do so, and then you can start injecting stuff. As I said before, though, injecting a corrupted save, even if you've successfully got it in PKHeX, is currently beyond me. I'm sure it's possible with some tweaking, but I don't know what needs tweaking. Hopefully this can be figured out so there's a fairly reliable method to recover corrupted saves in the future.

RAM2Sav allows you to edit the RAM values (changes what's currently stored temporarily, essentially), then when you save the game, the changes are written back to the game (since the RAM is in the 3DS, not the game - if you reset without saving, the changes are gone, since the RAM will be cleared).

Powersaves is currently the most reliable backup method (or Cyber Gadget, if you have a Japanese game).

Doing what I described, you can actually open up both save files next to each other and copy everything manually over. However, to make your new save identical to your corrupted one, it will take a lot of time and effort. It is doable, however. Just a pain in the ass.

Thanks once again on the informative response. Unfortunately i purchased the digital version of pokemon Y so powersaves isnt an option for me. I have no idea why Nintendo doesnt allow you to backup your save data for a game which youre going to put hundreds of hours in.

I might restart the game and look into the inject stuff, thanks again. Ill do my research about ram2sav and utilize it

Sadly, you need to be ingame for this stuff. You could always try getting a Gateway and use savedatafiler to extract the save without needing to go ingame, then import the fixed save using this method.

Thanks for the response and I thought so, though I was hoping there would be some way to recover my 400 plus hours on my Y...

Just to make this clear for myself and perhaps future lurkers, from my understanding

ram2sav allows you to edit your save file by a series of instructions allowing you to edit the number of items in your bag, pokemon in your box excluding party and the wondercard? Sorry for cluttering the thread, just really upset that I got corrupted data and Im seeking help on how to recover or ways to prevent this from happening in the future.

Which speaking of, In case I want to avoid this in the future, what is the best way to backup your save file if there is any?

tl;dr it can edit your save file instead of just the Pokemon in your PC

PCEdit can only modify the Pokemon in your PC; while RAM2Sav can do that, and can modify things in your save file such as the multiplayer sprite that appears on the Player Search System, can modify your current/best streaks in the Battle Maison, your bag inventory, wonder cards, etc.

Hi, I too am new to all of this stuff and was told about the ram2sav sfuff (still confused about what it is, I assume its like that powersaves stuff) after I asked about how to recover "corrupted data" on pokemon Y. Will this help me in recovering my lost data or at least help me recover lost pokemon? I assume it probably wont considering you need to be in game for this thing to work, but is there anyway it could help if I am forced to start over? I hate to rebreed or even recover hours of gameplay obtaining rare items such as leftovers etc, all because of some bad luck.

If anyone could help me I'd appreciate it. I am goig to glimpse through the other pages for more info on this ram2sav stuff
