PHBank is a homebrew which allows to manage a local bank for XY and ORAS Pokémon games, just like the Pokébank, but as a free offline service.
This homebrew is not intended to cheat (not even cloning). It's just a storage solution.
The source code is available under the GPLv3 license on github, and the resources are available on github too.
What this Homebrew can do:
- Work on o3ds and n3ds!
- Navigate through the PC boxes of a XY/ORAS save and the Bank boxes.
- Display a more specific resume per Pokémon (like IVs/EVs).
- Select one Pokémon (with stylus or buttons) and move it to another slot/box.
- Select some Pokémon (with buttons) and move them to another box.
- Swap an entire box content to another one (pc <-> bank).
- Autocomplete the Pokédex when importing Pokémon to a gamesave.
- Prompt a dialog to save/exit/backup during the homebrew execution.
- Export/Import the savedata directly to/from the game, without the need of external tools (/main).
- Load/Save the bankdata to/from the bank, located in the SD card (/pk/bank/bank).
How to install it:
- Just extract the archive at (to?) the root of your SD card.
- It must contains:
- The PHBank files /3ds/PHBank/[PHBankFiles].
- The cia installer in /cia/PHBank.cia
- The data files /pk/[DataFiles].
How to import from <= [v1.1.4-beta-a]:
- Install PHBank normally, see above.
- Copy the bank file from /pkbank/bank to /pk/bank/bank.
- You can delete the /pkbank/ folder.

use event assistant 3.0Has this been updated to work on 11.1 yet?
They're just asking. Nothing wrong with that. You sound so angry.Can people be patient at all? The person working on this does have a life too and they aren't obligated to drop everything and work on this just because the game has been leaked.

Someone is having a bad day.
They could pkhex was updated within hours of the cia leaking.give it time guys like a few days or a few weeks.. while i liked the idea of a leaked cia, the phbank on the other hand needs some time, i mean the game just leaked last night how in Hade's kingdom could anyone program something that quick unless they get inside a Time machine then back..people just started the adventure choosing starter pokemons no one is gonna start battling online yet so no need to be impatient unless of course it has been weeks and there hasnt been any news..im not angry by the way just in case LOL.. im excited but i must be patient..
I'll just use pkhexidk about you but if this dont get updated by next year ill just shell out a few on Pbank so i can move my mon this one time.
that too lol ill need to familiarize myself with it.I'll just use pkhex
It's easy enough use jksv to backup save then open it up in pkhex it's pretty self explanatory from there.that too lol ill need to familiarize myself with it.
unless jksv has issues with the format. acnl update gets corrupted now.It's easy enough use jksv to backup save then open it up in pkhex it's pretty self explanatory from there.
