ROM Hack Suggestion How can I transfer a Pokemon (in Pokemon Sword) from CFW to OFW?

[MSco]

I have Pokemon Sword as a Cartridge and play online with it on the OFW of my Nintendo Switch.

Now, I would like to clone a Pokemon and trade it online.

How can I do this? I think, I should transfer my savegame to a CFW and clone it there. However, how will I be able to transfer that cloned Pokemon back to the OFW? Without transfer, I wont be able to trade that clone online, right? Any ideas for this?

Easiest way is to trade with two units if you have two units, one for hacking, one for online.

I can trade them offline from my OFW Switch to my second CFW switch. There I can freely use PKHEX on the savegame.
I only used it ones to add mew...

Ok, so the only way to do this transfer is using a second Nintendo Switch?

Without a ban risk: Yes.
Or find someone who has one willing to lend you a hand.

Or find a middleman to trade with lan-play.com

Do you mean this here? https://github.com/spacemeowx2/switch-lan-play
Never heard of this before, sounds quite nice.

So is it correct, that in that lan-play tool everyone could play with me, even if he does not have Nintendo Switch Online? Original Firmware and Custom Firmware could play together?

Yes

You can edit a nand backup with hacdiskmount or mount your nand to your PC to edit it, leaving no trace of CFW usage, meaning "virtually" no risk of getting banned.

Here some threads about it:

@Zkajavier
My only concerns is whether do they implemented a similar checksum mechanism to detect any mod on saves just like what they did on the 2 splatoon titles and Animal crossing. But so far as I know, running checkpoint on cfw or injecting saves using hacdiskmount should impose minimal risk, especially on the latter one where no traces are leftover as all operation is done on PC. I would like to know if you have did any attempts on the pkm titles.
