  • How to Use PKHaX Mode with PKHeX

    This tutorial will show to to activate PKHaX mode on PKHeX. This mode will allow you to give Pokemon illegal abilities, stats, and much more.

    Please Note: "Project Pokémon does not support or condone cheating at the expense of others. While this community contains research, information, and utilities allowing people to create their own Pokémon, we do not agree with using them against players who are unaware that significantly hacked"

    Making your own batch file for PKHaX is fairly simple. In this tutorial, the resulting batch file will be identical to the file I provided above, but will not have an icon, and will be in a ".bat" format instead of a ".exe" format.

    1. Navigate to a folder to make the batch file. Right click inside of the folder, then click on "new", then click on "Text Document"

    2. Rename the new text file to whatever you like (I will rename mine "PKHaX").

    3. Open your new text file, then paste in this code

    start pkhex hax
    exit 0

    4. Click on "File" then click on "Save As"

    5. When the "Save As" window comes up, add ".bat" as shown in the picture below, to the end of your file name. Then click "Save"

    6. Go back to the folder in which you just saved your new batch file. Make sure you are using the batch file and not the text file.

    7. Move the batch file you just created into the same folder as PKHeX. Then open your PKHaX batch file and PKHeX with PKHaX mode should open correctly.

    Hello, first time commenting here but I was wondering is there a way to get this mode activated on the 3DS Homebrew version? I just like playing with Pokémon offline with wacky abilities and just fun..not competitive and not looking to flood any market with illegal Pokémon. I’d just like to have like Sheer Force on my Talonflame lol type of stuff. Thanks!

    There is no PKHeX homebrew for the 3DS. It's a PC application.

    How can i surpass the 510 IV limit with the PKHaX in Hacked Mode ?

    I play on Citra emulator in my Pocophone (edit the main on pc and transfer to phone) and wanna edit all IVs to 252... There's a way to remove this limit ?

    Is this guide still relevant for current version of pkhex? Because I was able to activate pkhax mode, without pkhax.bat, by toggling it to "on" in the settings.

    Today you can simple rename the .exe file to "pkhax.exe" and have both

    Thank you! By any chance, do you know how I can edit the stat values of my Pokemon to 999 without it reverting back to the original value? I followed the steps provided but still not getting the desired results. Pkhex would show that the values are indeed 999, however the edited value isn't reflected when viewed in game.

    I did everything correctly and it is saying file is too small

    You shouldn't open the .bat in PKHeX. If you double click the .bat PKHeX should open in HaX mode.

    This guide is a bit out of date. Nowadays you could as well just set ForceHaXOnLauch in the startup settings.

    You can not choose any other ability because that's technically not possible in Gen 3. The ability is just a single bit which can either be 0 or 1, depending on if the Pokemon has its first or second ability.

    I am attempting this with Emerald Kaizo and it's not working. None of the changes I import come through in the game. 

    I am on a Windows 11 Laptop with the latest version of PkheX.

    Incorrect abilities cannot be set in Gen3 games because Pokemon do not store the ability ID, only which of the two slots it has. PKHeX cannot do what the game structure doesn't allow. If you want to change the abilities of a species, then use a ROM editor and make your own ROM hack.
