DM ME TO ASK QUESTIONS (this post has annoyingly been archived). NOTE: THIS IS NOT ILLEGAL OR PIRACY. It is a savefile I created myself, NOT A ROM. It's just to help people who want to play the game they LEGALLY bought without having to grind for everything before being able to battle. I want to share it with people, so they can use it personally (without having to go through what I have building all these Pokemon) or for online play! Google Drive link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LZSiWSv5GjM9C3trYULSLyTxyzVk6Hs0?usp=sharing It comes with: all Fully Evolved (and many Little Cup) Pokemon with competitive builds; all battle passes and fashion items unlocked; as well as 20 teams I have made of characters from across the series, such as Red, Cynthia, Jasmine, May, Giovanni, Paul and more! Have a peek: https://imgur.com/a/4VgGYbS Small note: I chose not to give any Pokemon Choice items (except ones using Trick) and was sparing with Life Orbs, so that when playing with friends, sets aren't too complicated, and speed tiers are more predictable. Plus they kind of ruin the balance of the game. But if you're really into competitive, build your own sets! I also did not give Little Cup Pokémon items as this completely changes how LC flows (except Clamperl has DeepSeaTooth, so it can be used in non LC teams too). NOTE 2: because I am an idiot, sadly the main savefile PKTOPIA will NOT WORK ONLINE. You can use the other savefiles online though with WiiMMFi. NOTE 3: importing the save REQUIRES Homebrew because PBR is locked to not allowing a save to be imported; using Homebrew with SaveGameManagerGX bypasses this. NOTE 4: this is a USA game save file, therefore will NOT WORK on any other region of game. Simply download the USA version of PBR from online to use the save file on any region of Wii. To rectify this, I also added the Binary file in the "Copypaste All Pokemon" folder. If you open your own savefile in PKHex and drag-and-drop this file into the PKHex window, it will replace all the Pokemon with my Pokemon. This will bypass the region lock but will NOT import complete savefile, custom battlepasses, etc., and you will retain your savefile, just with all my Pokemon. Update (13/01/2024): I have now also added additional Pokemon for Gen4 OU singles battles! Four teams have been created but you can mix and match the Pokemon at will. These Pokemon are in Box 4. I also fixed the few Pokemon with accidental incorrect moves/abilities, such as Venomoth not having Tinted Lens. So if you have the old file, try this new one! Update (03/03/2024): I went through and corrected ALL mistaken abilities, and re-balanced lots of EVs and movesets. I have now balanced the Legendary Pokemon so they have weaker moves, meaning they can be used in battles along with other Pokemon and not feel unfair. I also went through the list of 500 moves and tried to add as many missing moves as I could to Pokemon, so that most of the moves are usable. I left out the tragically weak moves like Psywave, but found use for moves such as DragonBreath and Bite on Legendary Pokemon to make them balanced, and also added fun obscure moves like Punishment, Imprison, RazorWind, RollingKick and MeFirst! Finally I removed Explosion from almost every Pokemon, and on the few I left it on I replaced it with the weaker SelfDestruct. The prevalence of Explosion in Gen4 Doubles meta is kind of boring. And this savefile is made for fun battles with friends! The game has 4 Savefiles: PKTOPIA, Red, Blue, Green. You can rename these (see: Editing Savefile). PKTOPIA is a complete file with all colosseums unlocked. Red and Blue have all the Pokemon, but have not been played. Green has no Pokemon, so you can connect a DS easily, or play only with Battle Passes if you find that fun. ▸ How to install the save file: First, unzip and put the PBR SAVEFILE COMPLETE folder anywhere on your SD card, the Root is the simplest place. You CAN NOT just place the game save on its own, you must put the ENTIRE FOLDER in. Then, insert SD card to Wii. Then; Using SaveGameManagerGX on Homebrew, on the top menu, navigate to the SD card. Find the icon for PBR where you put it. Click the PBR icon and click install. This will overwrite any data you have on PBR so make sure you back it up first. To extract the save file for editing, like say you play for 20 hours but now want to edit a Pokémon without losing your progress, go to SaveGameManagerGX, on the top menu navigate to the Wii icon, click PBR’s icon and click Extract to Custom and navigate to your SD card. Once editing is complete re-inject the save file. ▸ INSTALL ON DOLPHIN: Just create a new save game on PBR. Then close the game. In the game select menu of Dolphin, right click PBR and “go to save location” Replace the "PbrSaveData" file with mine. Done! ▸ How to edit the Pokemon/ Savefile/ create a custom team: Use PKHex. It's pretty self-explanatory how to edit Pokemon. One tip I have is, Pokemon will sometimes not work correctly if they have no Met Location/ OT info. You can take any existing Pokemon, copy it to a few slots, and now these slots will have that data, now you can edit that Pokemon into whatever you want, or import a Pokemon from Showdown on top of it by using Ctrl+T when the text from Showdown is copied to clipboard and then Shift-Click to replace the old Pokemon with the new one. You can edit your savefile name in PKHex by going to SAV --> Save Slot: (select the file you want to edit) --> Block Data, and simply edit the value of Current OT. This will be your online display name if you choose to do online play. And as a bonus for all the Battle Revolution Maniacs, here is my custom USBLoaderGX Pokemon Battle Revoluton homescreen theme: https://drive.google.com/file/d/168KV4QlGfh-T1Jit9aCuZAymLbuKA-8H/view?usp=sharing You can go to the theme settings in Homebrew on the Wii to select the music track that is there to play on the Wii menu! TROUBLESHOOTING Ensure you install the entire "0001000052504245" folder to your Wii INCLUDING the "0001000052504245" folder, and do not rename it as this is the game code for PBR. Do not rename ANY FILES or edit the filestructure or it may not work. Make sure you're using a USA PBR game. If the error message "unable to copy datas" still occurs, try the following: Ensure my "0001000052504245" folder is NOT on your SD card. Move it to anywhere else on your PC for now. Go into the basic Wii home menu, settings, and go to your game save data. Delete PBR. (Backup your current save with SGMGX if you don't want to lose it). Open PBR, this will create a fresh save file. Now close out of PBR. In SaveGameManagerGX, download this new savefile from the Wii to your SD card. This will now create the exact folder structure you need on your SD card. Go to your PC and on the SD, replace MY "PbrSaveData" file with the one you just installed from your Wii in the exact same location. Install using SGMGX and play! FINAL SOLUTION::: I finally figured out how to turn the file into a .bin the .bin file is located in the RPBE folder now in the google drive link. If all else fails, this should work. Simply delete all traces of PBR save data from your SD card, place the .bin file either in the root of the SD card or inside the RPBE folder on the root of your SD card, and now using SGMGX you should be able to bypass "unable to copy datas" error in battle revolution!! Enjoy, and let me know how it goes or if there are any errors/ you need help!
