I finally got all of the pokemon through properly playing the game and decided to do the block edits to do the wild area events. I dumped the save via Checkpoint (latest version as of today) and loaded the save into PkHex. My Drednaw and my Vanillish both have red exclamation marks. both saying "Invalid: Unable to match an encounter from origin game". As I said, this save has never been dumped or edited before, both pokemon were caught by me without any cheats or hacks (I played the game entirely without glitching anything).

So this has to be a bug in PkHex? Im not interested in fixing it (as these are 100% legit and dont need to be fixed), but I just wanted to report the bug.

People could have participated during the actual event with any Switch date, thus don't need to change the date back.

Just don't try to share it online, and don't try to share it with other (unless they have the same file, and you're sharing locally)

Got it, thanks. Maybe a silly question. But is there a reason why the inject files arent just integrated into PkHex so that they can be just selected without having to go seek out other files?

Hi all, Im a bit late to sword/shield, so some events have already passed. Id like to, with minimal external intervention do some of the raid battles that have already passed (for example to get bulbasour and squirtle). I dont want anything special, just want an ability to do the battles as if I connected to Nintendo and got the Wild Area News from them. If I understand correctly, I can do this by importing block data via PkHex. My question is. Once i import, lets say a Wild Area raid from a few months ago, that has already passed, how does it work to actually encounter it? Do I need to set the switch time back or what?

Thanks.

Curious what the purpose of "Fused" box is under Other tab? Also the GTS tab retains the pokemon in it even if you traded it already?

hey dude, what does it mean add the save?
 

 

Means export your save and attach it to a post here for devs to take a look

"genning Pokemon Legit"
Genning itself goes against the definition of Legit.

We aren't sure of how they got caught, but assumptions is they likely screwed up somewhere.
 

Maybe impossible shiny or impossible dex entry.
Or giving yourself all clothes or all dex.
Illegal Pokemon (but they didn't know it was illegal?).
Having >995 of a single item.
Or having unreleased items or Pokemanz.
Maybe the Game Sync tracks differences.
There's a new Pokemon in box, but no trade, no hatch, no bank, no capture, where did this pokemon come from type of scenario.
Maybe Change OT Name or TID/SID or gender or skin color after Game Sync?

Not really sure at this point.

This certainly is a bummer.
I mean, I'm glad the company is at least moderating what they should be doing,
but I think what's bad is innocents may get caught in the crossfire.

I think the minute you drag your save over to pkHex you give up your right for "innocence"

i dont see anything about a ban whats the thread called

where do i find the older version ? the one that still works?

Thats when commits are happening (code being pushed to the repository). The old one is in the sticky, its from December and does not support Sun/Moon. Also check front page for info about a ban, I wouldnt hack your save if you care about ever using online a bunch of people got banned today.

I dont understand the beans thing. I have like 650ish normal beans (my save is not hacked in any way shape or form, thats just how many ive collected so far). How does this and limit of 250 or whatever correlate?

i tried to make a ralts for my moon version but it said this species is unavailable prior to bank release. so i was told to download the latest version i did that ,but now idk what to do it wont open for me like the older version did   have i done something wrong?  i downloaded it right from the github website   

Github doesnt have a compiled version. There hasnt been a PkHex release since bank yet. Its being worked on. So you have to wait for it to release.

So you could still battle with a friend online or use wondertrade or gts?

This is all we know :   This ban prevents them from using Game Sync, entering in Rating Battles and Battle Competitions, and participating in Global Missions.

1 - You cant sync, cant participate in events, cant do any ranked battles

2 - We dont know, and likely will never know for sure. 

All commits after Jan 12th are gone? They were there yesterday.

As a general rule, if when you are circumventing something expect the worst. So yes its possible to get a ban. You have to use this software with the idea that you are ok getting banned. 

Is it likely? No, but possible.

There is a sticky right at the top of the forum answering this question.

Bank was released no more than a day ago. Implementing things takes time, especially so when it's an unpaid position irl duties come first!

Absolutely, I meant to ask if this kind of functionality is on the "to do" list to do eventually? And what about gen 6 bank that has been out for a few years right?

PKHeX will ignore legality and performs the transfer as if it was legal, unlike bank.

Thanks for clarification. is there a plan to implement this at some point in the future?

Have you tried it on latest commit? Gen 7 stuff is still work in progress - 

Ok so it sounds like the initial issue has been addressed but there may be bugs since its still "in development" version. Im not sure about the new errors if those are correct or no, someone else will have to chime in.

here is the latest commit build, does the issue happen there? http://www.mediafire.com/file/f1rm5jldl97udh5/PKHeX_(1-25-2017).zip

Just wondering if PkHex will warn me or stop me from transfering pokemon I cant transfer in Bank from lets say Gen 5 to Gen 7 etc? Or will it transfer whatever?

EDIT: since transfering to Gen 7 is still work in progress.. let me rephrase the question.... Will it stop me from transfering into Gen 6 that bank wouldnt allow?

No, they always had both PCD and PGT. The PCD contains the whole of the PGT, yes, but when you receive a Wondercard it copies the gift from the PCD (Wondercard) into a different area in memory.

I couldn't really tell how your PGT/PCD ordering ended up this way without knowing every detail of what you did since the start (which would have been 8 years ago and I wouldn't really expect someone to remember every detail this far back. :p)

Though I guess I could try and reproduce it, and if I managed to then I'd be able to tell, but that sounds like an awful lot of trial and error.

Yeah probably not worth it. And you are right, I dont remember how I did Black/White distributions other than driving to gamestop nearby for those, much less these that were like 3-4 years before that.

The text string is just the 'latest release' date; I added it since the last release to make it easier to identify what version users were using (if they were reporting issues).

I only update that string when I push a new version, so don't worry about it.

is there a way to see which commit is being used though? Possible to add to "About" page maybe?

Has been fixed on the latest commits (~3d ago); as for trashing it's been too long for me to remember.

"Gifts are transferred via Wonder Card, which players can store up to three of. This forces players to discard used Wonder Cards so that they will have no more than two cards before receiving another Mystery Gift."

I see... so that makes sense that I could have gotten jerachi without a PGT file and only with PCD. It also makes sense what @Ammako I must have gotten Dragonite, which came with both PGT and PCD, then Jerachi distribution only came with PCD, so it overwrote Dragonite's PCD but since there was no PGT then Dragonite's PGT remained. Weird...

As a side note, I merged latest commit but in title it still says (20161231) so makes it hard to determine if Im actually running the latest commit. Any way to check?

PCD are the cards, pgt are the gifts. Cards stored the distribution text AND a gift file.

You can always store gifts, trash cards, and receive more cards for later. It's how the game was designed, no need to store distribution text for everything and waste space.

Jirachi hasn't been activated, and Dragonite still has to be picked up.

What do you mean by "hasnt been activated" ? When I look at my boxes Dragonite is in there so he was claimed whenever I got him, and Jirachi is part of my party, so he was also claimed whenever event happened. Could it be that Pkhex is not reading the save correctly? The save was dumped from retail cartridge.

Im using build from yesterday (PKHeX Build 1434)
