Is this anything like the old Action Replay where you could hack in Pokemon? I kind of want one of these for my Pokemon X/Y just to get back a Pokemon I really love having. Just to get this clear though, people in this topic have tried this device with their copy of Pokemon, and it didn't work?
It says right in the topic title that it works.

To be clear, we have gotten as far as editing saves, but not beyond this, correct (cannot flash them back onto the cart)?

If we can calculate the AES_MAC & XorPad, then we can edit any save and flash it back to the cart.
Well Gateway saves will not be possible, because you need the cart unique keys which are lost in dumped roms. (Maybe they use a fixed key?)

Yeah, but the title only says that because the new device says it supports it.

I tried this since I have the Powersaves device. Put game in (Pokemon X US Version), says checking for codes/saves, says no hardware found, auto quits.

Then after that comment, there are a few more complaints. I was just wondering if anyone got it working, I don't feel like going through 171 pages of comments.

There are dozens of users here that used the Powersaves device with their game. Its safe to say it works and its legit.

TODO list:
- find AES_MAC algo
- find XorPad algo
if these things are done, then i'm able to edit any 3DS save without Datel's help and without a 3DS Farm...
but are the AES_MAC and XorPad part hard/possible to find? good work anyway! :)

Unfortunately I am not well versed enough in coding to understand too much of what you said. I do, however, only run retail carts. I will wait for those far more clever than me to find a solution to this. :)

I am happy to donate, by the way, if there is a group or something taking donations!

Funny that they screwed it up... but not even sure why they are against trading events on the GTS. What difference does it really make?


I think it might be because they are hacked in so easy so they don't want you doing that totally fair trade of an arceus for a regular rattata on GTS
