I don't think the whole Seed to Time thing matters.

You could always encounter the mon, and sit there and wait for the date to increase.

Furthermore, I've tried to find the time on a Buneary I caught for sure (430f119b caught on 25/05/2007), and it wouldn't show me the correct date too.
Found some a bunch of mons with "invalid seeds" on an older save of mine, even tho they were species that I definitely couldn't be bothered to hack them.

Plus, there's always a chance they're found at a different seed, just that PKHeX shows the first seed calculated that matches stats.

Keep in mind, that is just one of MANY steps in RNG manipulation, that is why I am not too worried now that you explained how Seeds are generated. 
 

That’s like step 3 in a long process.

At the first place our origin seeds are reverse engineered based on the stats on the mon. It's not like the origin seed data is written on the mon.

I have no idea why you're trying to 'edit' origin seeds.

However, if you search for a particular set of stats, ability, encounter etc on Pokefinder,
origin seed would be shown. (Technically, the PID and IVs generated are from that resulting origin seed).

Mind telling me what you wanna accomplish with origin seed editing?

I didn’t know that part. I was just falling down the rabbit hole of RNG abuse, but eventually tapped out due to how cumbersome it is. 
 

I checked over an old save file and noticed that my origin seeds were not matching up with the date of capture when I plugged it into RNGReporter Seed to Time finder.

Origin seed is reverse calculated based from a bunch of factors relating to RNG.

As such, you can't just "modify origin seed" directly. And to answer to your nowadays portion, that isn't accurate. As far as I can tell, one has never been able to edit it directly.


You wanna change your origin seed, you can do so indirectly: change every other stat relating to that chain of RNG frames. (PID, IVs etc)

Also, just a neat bit of info for ya: hovering isn't the only way to see origin seed. You can control click on the (!); origin seed is in the full legality report.

Thank you. So, if I’m understanding correctly it’s possible to change origin seeds, but you’d have to sort of reverse engineer it? 
 

edit: yeah, upon re-reading that clearly seems to be your intent 

Hey guys I recall PKHex used to display the origin Seed of a Pokémon in a tab but now I can only see it when I hover over my Pokémon with the cursor

im currently playing on Platinum save file

Is there a way to see the seed? Also, IIRC, it was read-only. Can origin seeds be edited nowadays?

I don’t want to start a new save file just for Raikou and I’m missing Squirtle line too.

Change the ability to Ability (2) Own Tempo

Yes, but why is it legal in Gen 3 but not Gen 4? 
 

I transferred that from a Ruby cartridge to Gen 4

Can anyone help explain what is going on here ?

Simple question: is there a way to enable Rotom-A in WiFi play via PKHex?

my understanding is that you need an action replay in order to do that, but I wonder if that is something PKHex supports or possibly can support 

I am having an issue with daily events not progressing in a save file where I am deep into the road for getting five trainer card stars so naturally I don’t want to start over

someone told me it was in the first few 0x90 lines but that doesn’t seem to be correct, unless I am interpreting something wrong. 
 

any help?

iPhone cannot be used to do this, no. Another reason to get an Android

Yeah I just ended up doing what I suggested. I don’t like the idea of an unsecured network but I didn’t know that you could limit the amount of devices that get connected to it. 
 

thanks for the thread

sure, there's lots of possibilities. That hadn't occurred to me before though honestly. A lot of people also use the wifi hotspot technique. But that's a great idea

WiFi hotspot as in using your phone? I tried to do that but iPhones don’t have WEP/no password options 

I’ll bump this as it is an interesting question. 

Hey man, it’s the same DNS server. However, you have to create a new profile when you enter the WiFi Club. 
 

Tht means your pal pad will be reset 

re: creating a no security guest WiFi 

Wouldn’t you ideally make it hidden so you don’t have to manually set it on or off all the time but don’t have to worry about someone using it?

It doesn’t allow you to dump it at all? I have the R4i Save Dongle and I’ve had some issues with my file getting corrupted 

I’ve chalked it down to not pressing OK when the file is done copying to the cartridge. Every time I’m 100% sure it’s finish writing data and press the OK when it’s finished I haven’t had issues until recently

Both are available. Which would you prefer?

Done

ZST, thank you.

This works for me. Overwrote the first 0x80 bytes with those of a clean save file, and edited what trainer data I could back to yours.

Whatever it is that's causing the problems, it's got to be within those first 0x80 bytes.

You absolute mad man, it works!

Hey man you have any luck with the save? 

Is ZST or Zest taken?

here is it. thanks for the help. hopefully my file will be fixed

platinum.sav

Thanks a lot man. I’ll get to it in the morning. I’ve been using my phone and don’t want to get on the computer right now.

for now, stop doing the transfer to and fro. Now, set your NDS time to 11:56 PM, leave it on, and the time has to switch into 12AM while you're in the Pokemon game.
(bypassing time lock: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/946308-pokemon-platinum-version/49751779)

Yeah I already did that about 3-4 days ago. I tried every trick I could find including setting the days forward in addition to putting my time at 11:55 or 11:56

i really think something just got corrupted in my save file. My first party Pokémon was glitched out and I merely replaced it with a copy of the data from an earlier backup file from PKHex, and it seemed to work fine. I’m guessing other things went wrong besides my first Pokémon being corrupted.

Are you using an emulator or cart on DS?
 

A before save (before you get it) and an after save (after you get the accessory.) There must be minimal to no changes between the saves otherwise.
Keep doing this, take note of what byte value get changed. Slowly and surely, you'll build an excel table with all the changes identified.

Cart on DS. I’m transferring with a save dongle, and I’ve had a couple of instances where the save file has gotten corrupted 

Long story short, my Platinum save file does not keep track of time correctly. I keep getting the “please visit tomorrow” message for every daily event for a week now

my save got corrupted at one point - unrelated to PKHex I believe - and I guess whatever got corrupted messed up the in game time. 
 

I want to create a new save file that is a replica on PKHex but I know the way I am, I’ll mess up somewhere or miss something especially on event flags or something like that 
 

//---multi post merged, please don't do it again. Use the edit button when necessary.---//
 

Also, I understand that Accessory/contest item editing hasn’t been implemented because it is “undocumented” 

how would it be documented? I figure it hasn’t been implemented simply because it’s so insignificant, not because it’s difficult, on account of all the editing options available
