I don't believe I'm asking this, but since the release in 2015, no one asked to add a gender indicator? I'm fairly new to 3ds homebrew so this is only my second month using PHBank, but the lack of it is bugging me since the start :P. If you plan to update this to sun/moon, please add it (a good spot would be near the name or markings, I think). And I guess it would be useful if you added some icon to indicate the ability is HA. I've read through all pages, and if there's no plan to update this I might be able to setup the code here and add those myself. Thanks!

OK, so I actually decided to try my luck with the code, and ofc it doesn't compile anymore. @Gocario is the sf2dlib update to use citro3d instead of the old GPU functions the reason you're not updating this anymore? I think I'll play with it a bit and see if I can make it work. If you're already working on it, give me a warning! :D

PHBank is a homebrew which allows to manage a local bank for XY and ORAS Pokémon games, just like the Pokébank, but as a free offline service.
This homebrew is not intended to cheat (not even cloning). It's just a storage solution.

The source code is available under the GPLv3 license on github, and the resources are available on github too.

What this Homebrew can do:
  • Work on o3ds and n3ds!
  • Navigate through the PC boxes of a XY/ORAS save and the Bank boxes.
  • Display a more specific resume per Pokémon (like IVs/EVs).
  • Select one Pokémon (with stylus or buttons) and move it to another slot/box.
  • Select some Pokémon (with buttons) and move them to another box.
  • Swap an entire box content to another one (pc <-> bank).
  • Autocomplete the Pokédex when importing Pokémon to a gamesave.
  • Prompt a dialog to save/exit/backup during the homebrew execution.
  • Export/Import the savedata directly to/from the game, without the need of external tools (/main).
  • Load/Save the bankdata to/from the bank, located in the SD card (/pk/bank/bank).

How to install it:
  • Just extract the archive at (to?) the root of your SD card.
  • It must contains:
    • The PHBank files /3ds/PHBank/[PHBankFiles].
    • The cia installer in /cia/PHBank.cia
    • The data files /pk/[DataFiles].

How to import from <= [v1.1.4-beta-a]:
  • Install PHBank normally, see above.
  • Copy the bank file from /pkbank/bank to /pk/bank/bank.
  • You can delete the /pkbank/ folder.

Controls:
Everywhere
  • DPad/CPad: Move the cursor inbox, change box, change pc/bank.
  • L/R: Change the current box.
  • LZ/RZ: Switch from PC to Bank and vice versa (can be done with Pad and/or stylus too).
  • Touchscreen:
    • Move the cursor inbox.
    • Change the current box.
    • Switch PC/Bank.
    • Drag & Drop Pokémon.
    • Change the selection mode.
  • Start: Open the savexit menu, for exiting or backing up.
  • Select: Switch the selection mode (Single -> Quick -> Multiple).
In Single selection mode (Red):
  • A: Select Pokémon / Move Pokémon if one is already selected.
  • B: Cancel selection.
In Quick selection mdoe (Blue):
  • A: Select Pokémon / Move Pokémon if one is already selected.
  • B: Cancel selection.
  • Y: Swap the current PC box content with the current Bank box content.
In Multiple selection mdoe (Blue):
  • Y: Activate the box selector (TODO: transform it as a button on screen).
Todo List:
  • Wonder box ;)
  • Display more specific information per Pokémon (Tabs for contest/met/etc).
  • Enhance more the GUI.
  • When moving Pokémon with the DPad/A, switch the held Pokémon.

Nota Bene:
  • I only tested this homebrew with Pokémon Alpha Sapphire on a cartridge on a n3ds (9.3+).
  • Not cheat, no kidding.
