How to get Magearna in Pokémon Sun & Moon

These steps aren't needed on the Japanese 3DS.
It doesn't work on the O3DS in Hans, because it runs in extended memory mode, so it reboots, it works with Luma, though.
If you get "You can't use this until you become the champion.", then wait until you beated the Elite 4, and finished the main game, then do the steps again.

Added my Magearna pk7 in a .zip for the people who don't get it working by this tutorial, please set OT + ID to your own, it still has the bottlecap.

Here is a tutorial how to get Magearna legitly, through Hans, or Luma locales spoofer, or PkHeX

Method 1:
1. Open up Homebrew launcher loader on your CFW on your New 3DS/New 3DS XL
2. Open up Hans, select Pokémon Sun or Pokémon Moon.
3. Select Japan, and 804 MHz
4. Launch the game.
5. Open the menu by X, and select this option:

6. Scan this QR:

7. Pick it up, at the mall in Hau'oli city, at the antic shop there.
8. Profit

Method 2:
1. Launch Luma settings by pressing start at boot (A9LH).
2. Enable the region/language emulation and external .code
3. Create a folder named locales inside SDRoot\luma where SDRoot the location of your SD is.
4. Create a .txt file with game's title id as the name, for Sun use: 0004000000164800
For moon use: 0004000000175E00

So for moon it's: 0004000000175E00.txt
And for sun it is: 0004000000164800.txt
5. Edit the file, and enter JPN for the region, an space, after that enter 2 characters for the language ("JP", "EN", "FR", "DE", "IT", "ES", "ZH", "KO") (without the quotation marks).
6. Save by selecting start.
7. Launch the game.
8. Open the menu by X, and select this option:
KfXzgZ9h.jpg

9. Scan this QR:
FKVPh9K.jpg

10. Pick it up, at the mall in Hau'oli city, at the antic shop there.
11. Profit
12. After using this, change region back to your own by editing JPN, in the text file to USA, EUR, CHN, AUS, KOR, or TWN.

Don't use method 3, unless you finished the game!!!
Method 3:
1. Extract your save using JKSM or any other savegame extractor
2. Use FTP or put your SD out of your 3DS, and copy the SDROOT\JKSM\Saves\Pokemon_moon\save_dir_name or SDROOT\JKSM\Saves\Pokemon_sun\save_dir_name to your PC, where SDROOT the letter of your SD is, and save_dir_name the name of the save directory is.
For Save data filer copy the folder with the title id of the game in the directory of Save data Filer, to your PC.
3. Make a backup of the directory.
4. Open PkHeX sun & moon, goto the Event flag editor, and enable the flag "Magearna event active". See the picture here (pic by: @tomx86)

Yes, it works without Hans on Japan, I also think it works on Luma locals, if anyone can post whether it works or not, then it would help.

Any particular reason on why it doesn't work on o3ds?

Well, it runs in extended memory mode.
So Hans can't use that.

Oh PKhex can also do this in the trainer info. Luma apparently changed my game's region to JPN. Make sure to revert region to your default one afterwards via PKHex or Luma.
