NOTICE:

It has come to my attention that my old download links and instructions were within the gbatemp rules. I am not linking any actual roms, or full romfs files. I am only linking the individual edited files required to play Rising Sun & Waning Moon. If this is threatened to be taken down once more, I ask that mods first look and tell me why the Nova Sun/Umbra Moon mods do the same and have remained up.


Please ask if you want to upload this elsewhere, or at least give credit back to this post or my twitter.
Lets start off with some context. Currently, pk3DS allows us to edit the trainers and move sets of pokemon within Pokemon Sun and Moon. I decided to go ahead and create a challenge mode of sorts, similar to that of Pokemon Blaze Black/Volt White. Currently editing wild encounters!

Changes:
  • Trial Captains and Kahunas now all have teams of 6 Pokemon.
  • Level curve greatly changed. Team should be in high 70s/low 80s by the end of the elite 4.
  • Trainers have Pokemon not usually seen in Alola.
  • Movesets of weaker Pokemon is finished.
  • Youngster Joey has a top percent Rattata.
  • Wild encounters up until the post game are finished! Have fun everyone!
  • Custom music for post game returning trainers.
  • Almost every Pokemon has access to their hidden ability.

A NOTE ABOUT INSTRUCTIONS:
THE EASIEST METHOD IS GETTING A CFW, DO IT WHILE YOU CAN.
Instructions: (CFW Required for this method. See other method below if you don't have a CFW) I also still need to make the method easier for Pokemon Sun users, sorry!

THINGS YOU NEED:
- Latest nightly build of luma. (Get this through the .cia updater)
- The hack's GARC files (the stuff that actually overwrites the original assets) Get it from the Google Drive link

New and Updated Instructions! About time!

Luma Game Patcher Method:
    • Create a folder named titles inside luma.
    • Create a folder with the game's title id as the name (0004000000164800 for Sun, 0004000000175E00 for Moon) inside titles.
  • Create a folder titled romfs within luma/titles/(titleID)
  • Place the "a" and "data" folders within the "romfs" folder.
  • Make sure "Enable Game Patcher" is checked in luma3ds setup.
  • Start Sun/Moon
Thats it! Easiest way to tell if its working is by starting a new game or checking your Trainer Passport.

FOR POKEMON SUN USERS: RENAME THE "3" FILE IN a\0\8\ TO "2"

Layeredfs: (These instructions only apply if you use the Layeredfs files)

The LayeredFS feature allows you to replace RomFS files with files on the SD card for most games. To use it:
  • Create a folder named titles inside luma.
  • Create a folder with the game's title id as the name (0004000000164800 for Sun, 0004000000175E00 for Moon) inside titles.
  • Create a folder called romfs in the game's folder.
  • Place the "a" and "data" folders within the "romfs" folder.
  • For example, to use LayeredFS with Pokémon™ Sun, make a folder named romfs , put your replacement files in it, then put romfs in 0004000000164800.
FOR POKEMON SUN USERS: RENAME THE "3" FILE IN a\0\8\ TO "2"

Todo:
  • Re balance according to feedback.
  • Re balance Pokemon move sets and stats once tools are available.
  • Add in last few Pokemon. (Some starters, legendaries, etc.)
  • Finish documentation on the various changes.

Credits:
  • Creators of the tools pk3DS, extract repack, etc.
  • Drayano, for being a cool guy that's better at hacking than I am
Sellout:
I'm a filthy sellout. Follow me on twitter to know when major updates for the romhack come out. https://twitter.com/KobeRobsahm

Sharing files, modified or not, from the original ROM is utterly forbidden by the GBAtemp rules.

You can only offer delta patches (IPS, xdelta, etc, plenty of formats available - just pick your favorites) if you want the links to stay on here. Thanks.
Huh alright then. Can they patch folders and such? I'll go ahead and look into a quick temporary fix when I get home. Can someone else set up a quick patch until then? Sorry for the inconvenience everyone.

If I used this on my regular Moon game, would I lose my progress? Or am I better off starting a new game in Sun?
You don't lose progress afaik. It'll just say you started on version 1.4 or whatever version you're using in your passport thing and you'll miss any battles you've already done I think.

Only works on Gateway. The NTR plugin crashes the game. So you may need to find different offsets.

Gateway cheat code for catching trainer poekmon on fort42 website not working , you able to get this cheat code working?can show me the code you are using?

I am not going to share anything which is illegal,the rom for citra is not cia ,it is cci or 3ds format,but i will tell you use which tool to extract the original moon rom and how add on the hack element inside the rom ,but at first you must have a decrypted rom of original pokemon moon , and then you use DotNet Toolkit 3DS...

Alolan Grimer currently gets Sludge Bomb at level 13, which I can only assume is some funny mistake. It's likely supposed to be Sludge, right?

I don not have a Gateway but I think there is a thread with gateway cheats for sun and moon.

No, it is a real move https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&r...gnYZOpakmY3WaZtDG46hNA&bvm=bv.142059868,d.ZWM

Hi guys, sorry to sound noobish - I'm usually okay with this sort of thing, but I'm struggling a little with the instructions.

I have a Pokemon Sun/Moon dump but it is instructing me to extract my dump's files? Any idea how I would do that? Thanks in advance. :)

Ha meant grimer is supposed to learn sludge instead of sludge bomb, which is likely correct.

huh yes, I know Sludge Bomb is a move. It's been one for about 16 years, you know.

But getting a 90 BP move at level 13 seems like a mistake, even moreso when there's a 65 BP move with a very similar name.

They can patch files themselves only as long as you provide _delta files_ which shouldn't contain any copyrighted code or art. Not even a 1%. Have a look at the other 3DS projects and see what they came up with for some ideas.

I followed all of the steps of the tutorial, but when i load it up on HANS, it loads into a gray screen. what do i do? I have n3ds 11.2.0 if that makes a difference.

@Kobazco During your work on this mod, did you happen to come across the resource files for the Z-Ring worn by your character? I want to replace the texture with Gladion's black one. If not, how would I look through them to find it myself?
