Hacking Datel Powersaves now supports Pokemon X/Y

[RemixDeluxe]

Anyone checking where the item code saves in the save data? Switch one Megastone with another to get the value. (I don't have any money to buy Powesaves currently).

And get the Lati@s stones. Yes please.

I have a feeling if they made a "First Pokemon in Your Party is Shiny" code, they'd mess it up, and make it illegal for use online.
They need to have an option that allows the extraction of .pkx files.
A PokeGen for .pkx already exist, we just can't extract the Pokemon...

Anyone get "The web operation failed" error? I just got my powersaves. I try to use on Pokemon Y and everytime it gets half way to SERVER PROCESS, the window web operation failed pop up and close to whole thing out. Is anyone having the same problem? My internet connect was connect the whole time. No firewall. Is their database down? If anyone how why it keeps doing this, please help. Thanks.

Great, I should have got the cartridge version. Any hope for the eshop version?

I just got my PowerSaves device by ActionReplay (by Datel). At first it worked with Pokemon Y, but not with X.
After trying blowing on the adapter and game card, using Radio Shack contact cleaner, standing on 1 foot and crowing like a chicken and other foolishness, I finally followed the advice of that genius - Goku - post #223. I licked the metal contacts on the X game cartridge and the thing has worked flawlessly ever since!
This device can backup and restore a 3DS save file and perform several codes - save file edit functions. I am glad I have PowerSaves for items and save game backup and restore - and Pokémon Bank & Poké Transporter for providing a place to move Pokemon to before restoring a save from before you deposited them and then withdrawing the pokes back to the game boxes. Easy, fast and perfect cloning.
But I am expecting a 3DS AR with encounter codes and shiny codes and various XY Pkx editors to be released soon.
I hope that there will be a 3DS emulator (DeSmuME3DS?) so I can play Pokemon XYZ and Dragon Quest Monsters on a 55" screen.
The start of this dream is the $20 PowerSaves device. Buy one now and share your 1mb powersaves.bin files full of shiny pokemon with me!

 

[sebbydaman]

its awesome. cloned almost 200 of my shiny pokes (kalos Breed) = )

 

[someonewhodied]

What are the forbidden 3?




Yes, it seems weird, but I licked the prongs on my cartridge, then it started working no problem.

This device won't help with the development of a 3DS emu, nor an actual AR device.

This is pretty cool, I hope a pokegen-like cheat is created. I've done IV breeding and it's a sink hole for time.

You can get 3DSes premodded with video out ports.

Saves are encrypted, and saves have checksums too. Unless you do a lot of file compares and find some sort of exploitable correlation, you're going to get nowhere.

Since Datel can add in codes, I believe they found the checksum to decrypt and re-encrypt the save.

 

[Kaphotics]

Since Datel can add in codes, I believe they found the checksum to decrypt and re-encrypt the save.

Yes, but you need the decrypted data of a given block to recalculate any 0x10 byte checksums.

Depending on how these save files work, it might not be a good idea for Datel to allow users to download unencrypted saves -- sure it would help making new codes but it could possibly give away the encryption stream. It'd be in their best interest to only allow certain regions to be downloaded, if at all.

Update - day 2: I had to re-lick (thanks Goku, but eww!) the metal contacts on my X cartridge a second time (today) to get a reliable connection with the powersaves3ds usb dongle.

The Powersaves Codes include 999x item in slot n for the first 10 slots in Tools, Recovery and Berries (30 Codes).
Other codes put 999 rare candy, ppmax, carbos, zinc, protein, iron, calcium, hp-up or masterballs in slot 1 of the appropriate category, over-writing whatever was already in slot 1. There are also codes for max money, BP and miles. I think this is an excellent start for a 3DS save editor that is not even officially released yet! Twice I got a corrupted save message on Y when I tried to restore a save, but it worked when I re-tried.

I think filetrip.net should provide a place to share Powersaves .bin files. These should be the standard format used for all 3DS savegame files.
They are created on a $20 Datel/Action Replay device from any 3DS retail game carts (not just Pokemon X & Y) and any current 3DS firmware.

The 3DS saves in filetrip are created on a $80 gateway device with restricted firmware and limited portability.
Perhaps Datel will provide Powersaves for Pokemon games soon?

I believe that the fact that Datel can now read, write and modify 3DS save files on a retail 3DS cart on a windows computer via a USB connection is evidence that it may be possible to develop a 3DS emulator and other fun toys in the future!

Why do people kept thinking this will lead to an emulator?
This is just a fraction of the 3DS.

 

[Queno138]

-snip-

1. Decrypting a save and save editing does not lead to emulator, as there are way lots of things required to emulate a 3DS.
2. no point sharing saves as the saves are encrypted.
3. given that saves are encrypted, until someone else breaks it, no save editing programs as well (datel won't release one; they won't earn money).

Goku used Lick, it's Super Effective!

Dude seriously? Thats great I was worried I was being stupid when doing that, but the other stuff in saliva actually helps with conductivity I lick ends of batteries in my finicky flash lights and it helps

 

[Zarde_Draco]

Has someone other than me experiencing this?

after this it shows insert cartridge, and the main screen appears and starts all over again!

How to Fix, anybody knows?

 

[gamefan5]

Lol, attention whoring at its best. Hilarious.
But anyway, just ordered it. I'm hoping it works well with no problems with most games.

 

[someonewhodied]

So now i need to actually collect all the berries. Now that i got this working on X

 

[rda]

Got mine in a few days ago, and I have to say its been working great so far. I haven't ran into any issues with it not reading any of my games including animal crossing and pokemon x

 

[sailor_moon]

Does anyone know if they plan on releasing a Location code? Like "start in front of Gym 1, Outside of Breeders House, etc."
