NOTICE:

It has come to my attention that my old download links and instructions were within the gbatemp rules. I am not linking any actual roms, or full romfs files. I am only linking the individual edited files required to play Rising Sun & Waning Moon. If this is threatened to be taken down once more, I ask that mods first look and tell me why the Nova Sun/Umbra Moon mods do the same and have remained up.


Please ask if you want to upload this elsewhere, or at least give credit back to this post or my twitter.
Lets start off with some context. Currently, pk3DS allows us to edit the trainers and move sets of pokemon within Pokemon Sun and Moon. I decided to go ahead and create a challenge mode of sorts, similar to that of Pokemon Blaze Black/Volt White. Currently editing wild encounters!

Changes:
  • Trial Captains and Kahunas now all have teams of 6 Pokemon.
  • Level curve greatly changed. Team should be in high 70s/low 80s by the end of the elite 4.
  • Trainers have Pokemon not usually seen in Alola.
  • Movesets of weaker Pokemon is finished.
  • Youngster Joey has a top percent Rattata.
  • Wild encounters up until the post game are finished! Have fun everyone!
  • Custom music for post game returning trainers.
  • Almost every Pokemon has access to their hidden ability.

A NOTE ABOUT INSTRUCTIONS:
THE EASIEST METHOD IS GETTING A CFW, DO IT WHILE YOU CAN.
Instructions: (CFW Required for this method. See other method below if you don't have a CFW) I also still need to make the method easier for Pokemon Sun users, sorry!

THINGS YOU NEED:
- Latest nightly build of luma. (Get this through the .cia updater)
- The hack's GARC files (the stuff that actually overwrites the original assets) Get it from the Google Drive link

New and Updated Instructions! About time!

Luma Game Patcher Method:
    • Create a folder named titles inside luma.
    • Create a folder with the game's title id as the name (0004000000164800 for Sun, 0004000000175E00 for Moon) inside titles.
  • Create a folder titled romfs within luma/titles/(titleID)
  • Place the "a" and "data" folders within the "romfs" folder.
  • Make sure "Enable Game Patcher" is checked in luma3ds setup.
  • Start Sun/Moon
Thats it! Easiest way to tell if its working is by starting a new game or checking your Trainer Passport.

FOR POKEMON SUN USERS: RENAME THE "3" FILE IN a\0\8\ TO "2"

Layeredfs: (These instructions only apply if you use the Layeredfs files)

The LayeredFS feature allows you to replace RomFS files with files on the SD card for most games. To use it:
  • Create a folder named titles inside luma.
  • Create a folder with the game's title id as the name (0004000000164800 for Sun, 0004000000175E00 for Moon) inside titles.
  • Create a folder called romfs in the game's folder.
  • Place the "a" and "data" folders within the "romfs" folder.
  • For example, to use LayeredFS with Pokémon™ Sun, make a folder named romfs , put your replacement files in it, then put romfs in 0004000000164800.
FOR POKEMON SUN USERS: RENAME THE "3" FILE IN a\0\8\ TO "2"

Todo:
  • Re balance according to feedback.
  • Re balance Pokemon move sets and stats once tools are available.
  • Add in last few Pokemon. (Some starters, legendaries, etc.)
  • Finish documentation on the various changes.

Credits:
  • Creators of the tools pk3DS, extract repack, etc.
  • Drayano, for being a cool guy that's better at hacking than I am
Sellout:
I'm a filthy sellout. Follow me on twitter to know when major updates for the romhack come out. https://twitter.com/KobeRobsahm

@Kobazco
Just found out you had snuck links in the first post AGAIN. I really don't want to warn/suspend you, but that kind of attitude won't get you far. I know you want to share your work, but it needs to be done properly.

Maybe you can try asking the guys that worked on: http://gbatemp.net/threads/release-...the-adventure-of-ryuunosuke-naruhodou.455185/ ?

They got it right without doing any illegal stuffs.

Really??? I still do not believe it... In GBATemp, where so much is spoken of these things... xD
Yes, it's true. That's how GBAtemp is still online while the rest of the internet burns down in DMCAs.

I'm not sure what you're facing. I have had problems loading in the past but just following his guide to the dot has fixed that so just redo it again and see if it works

Ok i've managed to get the hack running on sun but it says adventure started on 1.5 instead of 2, I used the code.bin in the google drive, so why would it be the 1.5 instead of 2?

Awesome Hack, lovin to play it, but I'm facing some issues to activate this ROM hacks aside 'no lines' pacthes, somebody know how to help me?

Yeah, I know that probably it's some issue related with luma nightlies-dev releases, but asking never killed nobody, isn't it?

Thank you kobazco, for turning an already wonderful game into an amazing new adventure.

In your sd card you need to have it looking like this SD:/luma/titles/(Game ID)/Code.bin

Yes just follow Asia81's guide to extract decrypt and rebuild a cia file and you need a decrypted sun or moon cia file in order to do this and the rest should be simple if you want I could just make it for you
Think you could PM me that?

Just a question to clarify -- the "Adventure started on v1.5" text in the Trainer Passport does not actually mean it is on 1.5, and that it just hasn't been updated in v2.0, correct?
