If you override your original file, then you lost it, always make a backup before editing.
i thaught i did but now its gone i looked up some other methods some of wich include getting one of those backup app things but they all want me to pay $100 and im not doing that there was also another one that sayed that i cant recover an edited file ????
and another one sayed i should try to use filezilla but i cant figure out what to do with that
so there is no way to even just get the save that i have now the edited one to work.............. would i have a better chance if i updated the game cos i ony have it on 1.0.0
Unless PKHex made an auto-backup (can't remember if it does this by default) in the usual location then unfortunately I don't think there's a way to recover it.
Wouldn't hurt to check though.

You can always inject someone else save into your cart/digital copy, but there are limit, you can't really go online as the info match someone cart/digital copy. You can always start over and backup your save and learn how pkhex.
If you don't have a backup of the original save file, you might be out of luck. If you post the save file here, I might be able to find the problem and/or fix it.
yes thank you so much there is a pkmn sun save here

Yeah, always make a backup. When i edit my save, i make 2 backups, I create two folders named "Org-Backup" and the other "Modded".
That way I know my original saves are safe, i also create a folder for each save inside those folders with Timestamps.
But there is also a homebrew app for all 3ds Pokemon game, a save editor that runs right on the 3DS, it's called PKSM. You can install it as a CIA and run it from the home menu, or run it as a 3DSX with HBL. I usually use the CIA version.

there should be a bak folder in your pkhex directory. I know I always do.
Never edit your exported save directly. Always make a copy and put it in checkpoint under a different folder then the original export.

Last time I used it 2 years ago PKhex automatically makes a backup whenever you load a save. Also, you probably saved in a Pokémon center. For some reason, PKhex couldn’t handle saving in a Pokemon center last time I used it.
