I don't remember how I got my cfw, I just remember following a guide somewhere on the internet, but what I'm about to say leads me to believe there's a problem with my firmware, and not the games I'm trying to mod.
So, for about a year or two now, I thought I just didn't know how to randomize my pokemon games (they always seemed to crash mid battle, or in specific routes, etc)
I thought the issue was that I messed up randomizing, which didn't make sense to me, because I followed the steps exactly. I'm going to use Pokemon X and Y for examples, as they are consistent with my crashes.
I would randomize my X game, using this guide: . After doing so, I'd attempt to run the game randomized, but I would at the trainer battle immediately following the pokemon catching tutorial. I tried a lot of different methods to make it work, but nothing did. Recently, I have attempted using a digital copy of pokemon Y to play neo x&y, however that would crash as well, at the exact same spot, without fail. So, I decided to test if it was the modding of the game, or what I can only assume is the 3ds. I ran Y without any of the custom settings, just the base game. Had froakie as my starter, torrent ability, all was well. I get to the trainer, and the game crashes, again. This, combined with me using a physical copy of Pokemon Sun for randomizing as well (it also crashed and wouldn't work) I tested my physical sun copy without any modding done to it. The game froze on the first cutscene.
I'm led to believe that the problem is with my 3ds and cfw, and that I somehow messed up along the way installing that, and not the games, as I've using both physical and digital copies of X, Y, Sun, and Ultra Moon, from various places (my collection & friends') and the crashes still occur, and at the same spots. I don't have any pictures, but I made a thread 2 years ago asking about the game crashing, specifically my pokemon x, where I typed out my error as I saw it.
This is what it says:
So, I'm thinking that either my 3ds, or my cfw has some issue with it. I'm wondering if there's a potential fix, or a way to like system reset my 3ds so I can reinstall cfw, the right way. If it helps, I'm on an old 3ds xl.
