ROM Hack Pokemon Black(J) to (U) save

[mylesmadness]

Will it possible to convert my Pokemon black(J) to (U) when it comes out? I want play with my friends, but I don't want to lose all my progress...

 

[Elvarg]

I guess only if they haven't changed anything in the (U) release.

I was able to use my (J) Diamond save on my (U) Diamond...

You can try. EU to U generally works. I'm not sure about this one though.

even HG to SS works. i've tried it. to get both groudon and kyogre. with the same save file.

Yeah just change the japanese sav name to the english rom name, I did it for SS and it worked.

What? Really? HG to SS can happen? :

 

[pokefloote]

Yup. So can Black to White. Except that with B/W it messes up the White Forest and Black City information and maps.

I'm sure you can use the save, if not, just pokesav your pokemon to it.

i've got 90% sure it will work, all previous pokemon games worked, my heart gold save (j) worked on (u) so it might be no problem

I really hope this works cause theres no way in hell I'm giving up my shiny Charizard lol.

This is asked every generation and I believe the answer yes even if your game was translated.

I checked with Black and White, by just changing the save file: No issues detected.
You cannot synchronize (Manteinance), but the rest of the features is working allright.

What?

 

[rateiosu]

1. You cannot retrieve data from Global Link (you cannot use Game Sync)
2. The pokedex works perfectly, but in the Unova Dex, only the english names are shown (not japanese ones, as one in the national Dex)
-
from all those data, no issues.

The only issues with region-switching saves is the region setting in the savefile. According to Pokesav, the .sav is assigned a region, while each Pokemon are also assigned regions. And AFAIK, Black/White only has the region setting in the Pokemon, so the only issues are the names that your Pokemon have (and maybe you'll get the foreign Pokedex entries, but B/W doesn't have those either AFAIK and that's not really an issue anyways).

EDIT: And almost forgot. If you have already connected to Wi-Fi, then it has assigned you a Japanese friendcode. You won't be able to use Wi-Fi in that case.

Well jap Pokemon soul silver save works on (U)

 

[Kurossaki652]

I traded my savs and my wi-fi doesn't work as well

I have a copy of pokesav for the Japanese rom. But I don't know how this'll work. I will probably find copies of White and Black in the US but me and my brother want to keep all the pokemon and progress we have. I wonder if I'll have to get the english copy of Pokesav for B/W?
