Ultimately, if you want it implemented, you could learn and do the research. If no one does the research, and you just wait for someone to do (and as far as it seems no one is doing the research), it would never get implemented.

You are speaking to equivalent of learning another language. I am unable to offer that aide. (It's clearly low on the priority for PKHeX which was pretty much what I was asking.)

has to be researched and documented before it can be implemented.

you can begin the research if you like.

I wish I was that tech savvy as to be able to sift through the save file. I really do. (I just know beyond a doubt that the points above that I stated are in the save file somewhere are.)

If it helps the people who do said research - I am more than willing to provide sample save files of EVERY den active with both a Red and Purple Beam via a Wishing Piece. (The only differences in the save file would be three elements: # of Wishing Piece item, Watts in-game currency, and game-time clocked. With exception to the Watts, the other two elements have to already be mapped as they are in PKHeX currently. I could even reduce the game to a single active non-Wishing Piece den active.)

To clarify: You are asking if there is value in loading Custom Firmware onto a Nintendo Switch in order access the Homebrew app: "Checkpoint". Checkpoint allows you to Export and Import an a copy of the Switch's local memory save file. From there, transfer a copy of the save from the Custom Firmware Switch to PKHeX (then back to said Switch.)

I would first like to state: This is why I own a Custom Firmware Switch.

I personally do not consider this a wise financial investment.

Nintendo's servers will lock down Custom Firmware Switch (semi-bricking it's ability to be online at all) in the event it sees that Switch. You will not have access to Nintendo Switch Online cloud service REQUIRED to transfer a save file in Pokémon titles between Nintendo Switches. This means you can ONLY use PKHeX with the saves on the CFW Switch. Furthermore, you cannot use Nintendo Switch Online for any of the online features that require it in those Pokémon titles (ie. Max Raids and Online Battles.)

At the time of writing this response, PKHeX just released a new version today. The program is VERY restrictive of features available at this time.

You cannot at this time with PKHeX:

• View/Edit/Anything involving the Den Star Piece gifts from Mystery Gift
• View/Edit/Anything involving the Item gifts from the Mystery Gift
• View/Edit/Anything involving active Den Raids (including Watch Tower)
• View/Edit/Anything involving the Online "Nest Report"
• View/Edit/Anything involving your Watts
• View/Edit/Anything involving Camping
• View/Edit/Anything involving Curry Dex
• View/Edit/Anything involving Jobs
• View/Edit/Anything involving the two Nursey
• Reset Wild Area "Strong" Pokémon
• Reset In-Game Gifts (including GMax Eevee/Pikachu)
• Reset In-Game Legendary Encounters

These are all within the realm of features added to PKHeX by the end of a game's "one year-ish" life-span.

So, you best be aware of just exactly what paying $300 USD for PKHeX is getting you right now.

(On that note: Project Pokemon is looking for donations to expand it's support of game events that occur in Asia currently. You may want to donate to that cause if you have the money to burn.)

Hello all,

Edit Delete: A million questions about all the functionality of the Raid Plug-In since the plug in does all of that! (IE: Shiny Countdown, IV prediction, yatta-yatta-yatta.)

Revision:

• Will the Den/Nest data become view-able without the Plug-In for PKHeX at some point?
• Will the downloadable Nest Report data become view-able at some point (allowing us to step forward towards reloading older Nest Reports: (ie: Delibird.)?

Thanks
