Use hourglass9 to inject save data.

  1. Load the pokemon game. Then close it and return to home menu. (THIS IS IMPORTANT)
  2. Open options and close it.
  3. When you close options, hold assigned button to load hourglass9
  4. Use the option to inject GBA save data, make sure the save data file is dumped from the GBA cart you own and is in the files9 directory on sd card.
You should check it with a emulator first on pc, i use visual boy advance for it. (Note not every game will work with VC injection, and if game has issues most likely will save data, most of the problem comes with save data conversion to VC compatible format from original intended that various GBA games use and VC emulation not being updated to support more games to begin with.)

    only ps5 updated to latest firmware can go on psn, jailbroken ones just don't use psn or they risk getting flagged or banned, altho spouting profanity in online play alredy does that
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Keep current Gen consoles stock mod last gen imo
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    Anyone dumb enough to get banned for spouting profanity deserves it.
  • Y @ YuseiFD:
    Then how come you do it and don't get banned ? or is it a question of getting caught doing it ?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    wtf is the point of banning swearing in games? that's utterly a dumb decision

    What's the point of video games? Kids playing video games won't be as hardened as the previous ones getting shoved down a hillside.
