PKSM is a multipurpose and portable save manager for Pokemon generations IV to VII, programmed in C++.

Authors' note: We do not support or condone cheating at the expense of others. Do not use significantly edited Pokemon in battle or in trades with those who are unaware edited Pokemon are in use.

Features

  • Supports original cartridges and digital copies of games from DPPt to SwSh.
  • Allows on-the-fly modifications to all of your data.
  • Allows internal and resizable offline storage to store your Pokemon.
  • Capable of running custom scripts to allow injection of arbitrary data into your saves.
  • Interfaces with multiple ad-hoc programs running on your computer, web browser or smartphone.
  • Capable of scanning QR codes to inject both .pkx files or event wondercards.
  • Contains an offline wondercard database to get events from old distributions.
  • Capable of automatic verification and legalization of all your data (internet connection required).
    • Optional interfacing with an Android app to handle verification and legalization without a network connection

Installation

This software works on CFW and Rosalina-based Homebrew Launchers. An internet connection is required when first launching PKSM.

  • CFW - Install the PKSM.cia file with your favourite installer, then launch the application from the Home Menu.
  • Rosalina HBL - Copy the PKSM.3dsx file into sdmc:/3ds/PKSM/, then launch PKSM from a Rosalina-based Homebrew Launcher.

Initial launch will require your system to be connected to the internet. This is needed to download the additional assets required for the application to launch. If your system is not connected to the internet, PKSM will return back to your menu.

Note: the ELF file here is for ease of finding it for future debugging. It is unlikely anyone downloading PKSM will need it.

v9.2.0

  • The Generation 3 and 8 hex editors are now filled in.
  • The QR scanner framerate is now much higher and supports Generation 3 QRs.
    • This should not affect scanning time.
  • Fixes and behind-the-scenes changes.
  • Fix a few Pokémon form names.
  • Add valid size for SWSH v1.0->1.2, not just 1.1->1.2.

  • Fixed defaults not saving changes between application restarts.
  • Fix an issue with the Ranger Manaphy Wonder Card.
  • Fix G3 nickname case when generating.
  • As PKSM does have an auto-updater, you likely will not have to update manually.
