ROM Hack PokeGen

[1Gamer]

Can please someone explain how to load the saved pokemon from PokeGen to the game?
I use a DeSmuMe. Thanks

this is awesome.. but i found a lil porblem with hg/ss the pokemon that i got wont register in pokedex..

works fine with b/w tho...

 

[jonesman99]

ive used it, extensively for about a week. but overall, i think im going to stick with pokesav. It's not a bad program at all, in fact, i also love the fact that its using sprites which make it easier to tell who im editing, but i like how in depth pokesav is with the options.

Keeps giving me "invalid savefile" I can't even open up my stupid savefile wtf.
It's 512KB.... it opened on pokesav....

EDIT: Nvm I hit ignore save file checksum or w/e but now it's giving me really wacky boxes..... bunches of eggs and stuff. Idk what's going on anymore.

EDIT 2: The pokemon that appear as eggs and "RIGHT CLICKs" all appear to be Aakens and yeah I'm really confused...

You may not be able to open your sav if it's fragmented. ("Invalid save file" message pops up)
(opening it with pokesav will show weird things, just like when you ignore checksum).

The only solution I dealt with this, is to load the sav on desmume (import backup memory),
Then save it again on desmume.

I then use pokegen to open the .dsv file from desmume.

Always backup your sav file.

what pokemon editing options does pokesav have that pokegen doesn't?

Oh wow it worked with that savefile... is there a way to change it back to .sav when I bring it over to my R4III?

 

[dragneon007]

Anyway to contact the developer of pokegen? I would like to make a request if it's possible to make pokegen load up on Flashcarts like Pokesav in this video.

or if there is a wa to get exe files running in flashcarts to load up pokegen

PokeSav more universal than this...

 

[TheNub]

can i use this with no$gba??

Use PokeGen for ANY Pokémon editing you need.
Pokésav is to be used only for item editing and such.
For Mystery Gift editing, you use Pokémon Mystery Gift Editor.

 

[stardude134]

PokeGen is better for pokemon editting mostly but thats about it. you cant use all item or mystery gift

 

[Bond697]

yes, you just need to make sure it saves as an uncompressed .sav. same for using it with pokesav, mge, or whatever.

It doesn't save skills, it only save the Pokémon stats and name, nothing else.

NO$GBA.INI

SAV/SNA File Format == UnCompressed

you might have to use that utility to convert the save after that, but i'm not sure.

So, the way to make this work with DeSmuME is by saving ingame first and then saving it as a .dst file?
Or just by saving ingame and saving the state, and loading the .dsv file?
Can anyone verify this?

1. Save ingame
2. Save State
3. Close DeSmuME and open PokéGen
4. Go to 'Options' and check 'Ignore save file checksum'
5. Load Pokémon Diamond/Pearl/HeartGold/SoulSilver/Black/White(or whatever name you gave it).dsv
6. ...
7. Save
8. Open DeSmuME and open your Pokémon Diamond/Pearl/HeartGold/SoulSilver/Black/White ROM
9. Click through to the menu and continue your game

I tried loading my pokemon black (U) game with pokegen 2.312 but it said, "Invaid save file."

my sav is a .sav file, i'm using a DSTT card.


EDIT: Thanks to Lacius. I used version 3.017 as sugested and it works. Thanks!

Use version 3.0b17 instead.

Does anyone know how to make it so that the created pokemon was obtained from a trade?

I'm using pokegen version 3.0b17.

I've tried changing the Trainer ID and SID and trainer name but that dosnt make the pokemon apear as traded.
Also, in the "Met" tab of Pokegen i can only select Black/White as the game.
I see an option for Location to be Link Trade or Link Trade (2). What's the difference and is this what i should be selecting so that the pokemon apears as traded?
If so, what do i select the "Encounter" option as? There's nothing there for trades in the encounter tab, the closest thing being the "Egg/Pal Park/Event/Honey Tree/Shaymin" option.

I want to make to pokemon apear as a trade because it has move(s) that can only be obtained from a move toutor in platnium, HG, or SS.

I'm also going to assume that i must set the "Origin" (in the Main tab) to either platnium, HG, or SS.


EDIT: I've been looking around and saw in a video that some guy went to options and checked off "Ignore save file checksum"
What's that for? In his video he to do it? I've made tons of legit pokemon without have that checked.
