The ROM is the same on all regions and detects the region of your 3DS, which Luma can fake.Hello,
I obtained a mystery gift code that is for the US. So i cant redeem it, but is there a way to make the game think im in the US and can redeem it?
The ROM is the same on all regions and detects the region of your 3DS, which Luma can fake.
All you need to do is use Luma language emulation, the easiest way to do that is with Luma Locale Switcher.
Though the Pokemon will show the wrong region so it won't be 100% legit, you'll need to either change the region of your save with PkHex beforehand or edit the Pokemon afterwards.
I think you're correct.Sounds good, EU AND US will show ENG region on the pokemon right? (so in my case i dont have to edit that, or am i wrong?)
I think you're correct.
It should work, people have done that before. It just fakes the region the game sees.I downloaded the locale changer cia from luma. But i cant change the system region, only titles. but that didnt work since its region free. Am i blind?

Maybe you need the "NIGHTLY" version from here: https://github.com/Possum/LumaLocaleSwitcher/releases
Luma changed how the language emulation worked at one point and that version is supposed to work with the new format.
Also, you have to enable language emulation in the Luma config.
If the save file is English then it will indeed have ENG tag
You're doing it wrong man. I do this all the time, I just had to redeem a wondercard for someone in the PAL region when my DS is USA lol. He's a local and couldn't even get it to work.....Tried physcial cia and qr download but no luck.
Setting the title to USA and boot it up > mystery gift > redeem code > error because of region. :/ rip me
Just wanted to say the region and language are two completely different things in regards to Pokemon. The little "ENG" or "JPN" or "CHN" tag on the pokemon is not set by region but is set by language.
You can 100% be playing on a Japanese region 3DS in English and any pokemon you catch will have the "ENG" tag, not "JPN".
This is true in game as well as for wondercards.
If you're in Japan but playing your game in English and use a serial code for your region (JPN) the wondercard text will be in Japanese, but the Pokemon itself including it's name will be in English (the OT will always be the same).
Try it yourself. Open PKHeX and take ANY pokemon you caught on your own and change the language to something else, don't mess with the region. Load the game and you'll see the "Country" tag on the pokemon. Super simple MM.

EUR* not EU and that's the region not the language. EUR can be EN, FR, DE, IT, ES, or NL. Although Pokemon doesn't support Dutch.Sounds good, EU AND US will show ENG region on the pokemon right? (so in my case i dont have to edit that, or am i wrong?)
