Bypassing waiting X days in Pokemon Sun and Moon demo (and probably other games too)

In some 3ds games there are events that happen based on how much time has passed. Unfortunately, changing time in System Settings doesn't work in some cases, one of them being Pokemon Sun and Moon demo. This tutorial shows how to skip waiting anyway! :yay3ds:

Requirements:
-cfw
-config tool from sdk installed, that's why you need cfw :P (don't ask me where to find it)

Steps:
1. Open sdk config tool
2. Select "Raw Rtc Setting"
3. Change time and press A to save & reboot
4. Open your game
5. ???
6. PROFIT! :D

NOTE: In Sun and Moon demo you have to change time to EXACTLY right day or it won't work (if something happens after 6 days it happens exactly after 6 days, it won't work after 7)

Btw
To be honest it's not worth to do it in Sun and Moon demo, stuff that happens is shit anyway (at least there is a nice gen 2 reference)

Yes, I even made a video of event that's supposed to occur after 18 days


I'll restore save and make a video tutorial tomorrow

Oh, i'm sorry. I had the wrong config... Was using the regular time editor thingy. I'll get you some better footage for these events.

Will the game be able to detect the time has changed? Because some games I have give some kind of penalty for changing the time through settings.

"Config cia" should be available on "that iso/chaos site" either by it self or in a bundle of SDK apps.
