So, Project Pokemon, the breeding ground of Pokegen, and now PKHex, have decided to go full asshole, and have prohibited any discussion on "cheating" and "piracy". With that being said, I need to know: Does the Sky3DS flashcard fully decrypt 3DS save files like the Gateway flashcard does?

Why would you buy that shit, you can only use 10 games forever.

No it does not. It doesn't support homebrew at all and it doesn't support the devmenu so there's no savedatafiler you can load with it. Sky3DS is shit.

I don't care for playing games on it, I just need a way to inject custom made pokemon files into my real games. Cyber Save Editor is Japan only, and can only be used with a Japanese 3DS and Japanese pokemon cartridge, and Powersaves backups are encrypted because Datel are also assholes.

I wouldn't say Sky3DS is shit. Unlike Gateway, they already support the latest 3DS firmware, and they have already lifted the 10 game limit. It is unfortunate that Sky3DS cannot serve my need atm, but at the rate they are advancing, it won't be long before they surpass Gateway.

I just looked for new changes, couldn't find any. Only notable stuff is the restructuring of the Game Mechanics and Enhancements subforum today.

Pokemon can still be requested: http://projectpokemon.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?22-Pok%E9mon-Requests

Save hacking discussion still a thing: http://projectpokemon.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?4-Save-Research-amp-Development

PKHeX feature requests still a thing here, though someone needs to make a thread for it: http://projectpokemon.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?99-PKHeX

Triple checked, not sure what you're referencing.

To actually answer your questions: Sky3DS does not and will never be able to decrypt save files like Gateway.

Sky3DS functions by pretending it is a legitimate card -- this is very different in nature to gateway, which uses a code vulnerability to take control of the console.

Gateway can use its control to do stuff like install devmenu and decrypt save files via savedatafiler, but Sky3DS will never be able to because it only has the capabilities of a regular inserted cartridge.

tl;dr: no, sky3ds doesn't and never will

They gave me an infraction for mentioning that I had acquired ROMs of OR and AS. Even though I clearly stated in my thread opener that I owned retail copies of X and Omega Ruby.

Less than 24 hours ago, the PKHex thread was 91 pages long. Now, those 90 pages of posts have been moved to a new thread called "PKHex Legacy Discussion", and both those threads are closed now.

Oh, you're this dude: http://projectpokemon.org/forums/showthread.php?44144-Using-PKHex-With-A-Flashcard/

>I have retail copies of X and Omega Ruby. I have acquired dumped ROMs of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
implies that you pirated AS. Per site rules (nothing new, has been for a very long time), admitting to piracy -> infraction. Absolutely nothing wrong with discussion of hacking, though.

Anyway, to answer your other questions in your thread:

>when I make a OR/AS save file on a 3DS flashcard, will those save files be encrypted too?
Yes, they'll still be encrypted.

>If yes, how do I decrypt them in order to open those saves with PKHex?
Use savedatafiler.

https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-put-savedatafiler-on-homescreen.373756/

>Once I get past that obstacle, I know that I can transfer the hexed mons from the flashcard ROM to my Pokemon Bank...

Yep.

It is not illegal to have a dumped ROM of a game, if you can prove that you own legal copies (physical or digital). Retailers know full well, that any form of media which can be inserted into a computer, can be copied. This is why they will not refund such merchandise if it has been opened.

Yeah. It was decided that since the PKHeX thread was way too long, it'd get its own subforum like Pokegen.

Nobody has actually made a new thread in it yet, but http://projectpokemon.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?99-PKHeX is for people to talk about PKHeX in now the way they do for pokegen in its subforum.

Threads aren't closed because discussion is disallowed, threads are closed because the program has a subforum to its own now.

Thanks for your reply, and my thanks to the people who answered my questions before you. Rules or not, it's still irritating to be unjustly patronized. And I say unjustly, because 1) I had confirmed to owning one of the games, 2) I figured I had made it clear that I was NOT playing the game without paying for it, and 3) with GTS, trading on forums, and the presence of devices like Action Replay Powersaves, the differences between the versions really do not matter anymore.

But, anyway, what's done is done. I'm not actually going to try and dispute the infraction. I'll just remember to choose my words more carefully.

I was wondering about this. How the fuck have Gateway devs not found a way to bypass the newest firmware yet but the shitdevs at Sky3ds have? I mad because I was waiting so long for Gateway to deliver for newer firmwares and my little cousin fucking updated my 3DS to 9.4 from my 9.0 that I was holding on to while I was at work today; and I literally JUST saw the announcement that they're won't be able to support 9.3 and up.

Just read through the thread. I understand now that Sky3DS does it using a different method. I was under the assumption it was a clone of Gateway like all the other carts currently on the marketl but that the Sky3DS devs found a way to use Gateway on the newer firmware while Gateway devs haven't.

Yeah, Sky3DS looks promising as a card that people can use to, er, try before buying. But Sky3DS' method prevents me from decrypting my pokemon save files, so sadly that is a dealbreaker. Hopefully Gateway will become more efficient at breaking the new 3DS firmwares, because idk how much longer I can stay at 9.2 until I will be compelled to update.

Finding exploits is kinda like finding a needle in a haystack. You won't know when you'll find one. Could be 1 day or 100 years.

If Sky3DS was a Gateway clone, and they managed to get it working on the new firmware, it'd essentially mean that they got Gateway to work on that firmware since they're just a clone.

That was my assumption initially, but I now understand that they use a different methods to work. Therefore, they aren't a clone like I thought they were.

Understand now?

But Gateway emulates newer firmware anyway, so you'll technically stay on 9.2 but be able to get the features added in newer stuff Nintendo adds by emulating future firmware releases.

At least, I believe that's the case. I don't actually own one myself because I don't have a 3DS that has a firmware version low enough to run Gateway.
