Hack Series: Pokémon Photonic Sun & Prismatic Moon

I'm not the developer of this hack, but I think can help you. They mentioned that all the Shiny locked Pokemon are still Shiny locked (they weren't able to go around the lock). As for the mythicals, everything from Bulbasaur to Zeraora is available. Marshadow, specifically, is an Island Scan encounter on Mondays on Tapu Village.

Alright thank you, bummed to hear about the shiny locks but I might try using the expired codes and seeing if it accepts them anyways, I might just have to inject them or if that would work. Also do you know if other mythicals like mew and genesect would be shiny locked?

i kept looking for USUM CIA Files, but all results i found seem to be URL Shortener garbage or scam links, what should i do?(because i badly want to play Prismatic moon on citra, and playing PM on citra means i need to install the 1.2 update)

Does anyone know if pokemon bank still works with these hacks?

Maybe the standard version, definitely not the rebalanced version.
Speaking of the Rebalanced version, when I battled Gladion in the Aether House, his Crobat used Brave Bird, but the Important battles doc said it doesn't know Brave Bird in Rebalanced (which is the version I'm playing)
I'm currently in the Aether Paradise raid segment of the story, and my team is what I said I was gonna use a while ago (all 3 starters (i save edited Litten and Popplio a while ago as Buffel remembers i started with Rowlet),) Pau'u Oricorio, Vikavolt and Mega Lucario

and that site's links were all URL Shorteners

yo, if this is the right site to ask- i've encountered a fatal issue when trying to go to the HOME menu from photonic sun (and photonic sun alone, to my knowledge)
would anyone be able to give me assistance on how to bugfix it? i'm fairly sure it's connected somehow to the changes made by the scripts, or some kind of messed up luma installation.
i'll provide a log file when requested

I found another issue with Rebalanced that might not be fixable: the event Z-crystal guy didn't notice I have a Marshadow in my team
EDIT: just need an event Marshadow (and maybe Mew for Mewnium Z too), but I found a new error: in the interlude between the main game and the RR episode, I found Stakataka without Island Scan in Photonic Sun

Was playing this hack (and thoroughly enjoying it) and it seems like most of the stat changes aren't working for me for some reason (Decidueye still appears to have 100 sp.atk and 70 spd, camerupt doesn't have boosted defenses, etc). I'm playing on Rebalanced and everything else seems to be working just fine (moveset changes, wild encounter tables, abilities, etc). Interestingly, of the pokemon I've checked, it seems that Ledian and Flareon in particular are working just fine, so maybe it's only an issue with post gen 3 mons/alolan forms? Has anyone else had this issue?

EDIT: Not at all sure how, but messing around in PKSM a little bit appears to have completely fixed the issue. I had been using PKSM before, so it's likely that not being careful resulted in some weird behaviors due to it using the base USUM files rather than PSPM. I'll be more wary in the future!

I'm trying to look up how to evolve Scyther into Scizor, is there a level now?

Where is move reminder? Is it still in Mount Lanakila?

Hi, is there a way to play the hack on android? I've downloaded the files and read them but the android emulator doesn't have the "open mod folder" option, it only has "edit cheat" option. I was thinking if it's possible to copy the hack files to some folder in the phone, I mean android/data/citra,etc.. Would it work? I hope you read this comment. Have a nice day ☺️

Edit: I would reaallyyy love to play this hack. I don't have a pc so I have to play on android.

hey i have a question! where can i find the Cia file? ive tried finding it everywhere but all the sites that say they have it also try to autodownload something to my pc (ive cancelled every one and i assume its malware) so i was wondering if you could add the cia file to the google drive somewhere? or a safe link to it? thanks in advance :)

Is it possible to remove the trainer changes and xp changes(so i can get more xp) and only keep the changes for pokemons,abilitys the Shop and evolving? So is it possible to just remove those two things?

Is it possible to exclude everything beside that all Pokémon are catchable (i mean what would i have to do)

Delete all of the hack's files except the wild Pokémon one, which is the ~400MB file in the romfs/a/0/8 folder. That won't make the wild Pokémon's levels vanilla though, so that won't be a very pleasant playthrough with just that change. This hack has a very steep level curve and the vanilla game does not.

Hello sir!
I played your game and it was quite amazing!
Can I ask one short question (even if its not directly connected to your hack):
I want to create a USUM Hack and I dont know where to start because all the ROM Hack Guides are about Gen 3.
Is there some Guide or Thread for Gen 7 Hacks?
Or can you at least tell me what kind of Programs you used?

Hi!

Just got a New Nintendo 2ds XL and i'm trying this version of the game. After a couple hours I started to think I was in the original version of the game, is there any sure way of knowing if we are really playing the hacked version?

Thanks!

There are plenty of ways to easily find this out
You could look at the encounters you can get, to see if they match the modified ones from this version
Or you could try to reach one of the main fights in the game, to see if the levels match the original game or this version
You could check which items are sold in the shops, to see if they match the modified shops of this version

Basically, check for anything that was modified in this version that would be easy to check at your stage in the game
Follow the documents if you want to see what was changed, to look for the easiest change for you to check

Thanks! No idea if there are guides around, but the only programs you need are pk3DS and DotNet 3DS Toolkit. They have good instructions so you should be okay without an in-depth guide.
