PKM File Fields

PKM files have been ripped from saved and traded online for roughly the last 5 years or so by players. Pulling them out of games is very easy and makes trading or giving out pokemon to friends a simple task. When GameFreak needs to get or set specific data for a pokemon, they do it using a switch statement and a series of fields. They do it like so:

typedef enum{

PID,
sanity1_1,
sanity2_2,
sanity3_3,
CHECKSUM,
SPECIES,
ITEM,
ID,
EXP,
HAPPINESS,

-and so forth-

} PKMField;

When they need to write data to the pkm file, they use this function:

void setPKMStat(void* pPKM, PKMField field, int data)

and when they need to retrieve data from a PKM file, they use this:

PKMField getPKMStat(void* pPKM, PKMField field, int data)
(data is basically always 0 in the "get" function)

So to get a piece of data from a pokemon, say if the pokemon is an egg(0x4C), it would look something like this:

getPKMStat(pkm_pointer, IS_EGG, 0);

The switch statements for these functions are large. In gen 3 they used 2 switches, one for party data and one for box data. In gens 4 and 5 they switched to a single massive switch that can retrieve anything. In B2W2 a PKM file has 180 fields. In BW PKM files had 176 fields.

The following is a partial list of field values for these functions: (all are in hexadecimal)
