Save Reading and Editing (Gen 4 5) - hzla/Dynamic-Calc GitHub Wiki

Reading Save Files

For generation 4/5 calcs, you can import your sets by directly reading the save file. This is done by clicking the Read .sav button under the set import text box.

Editing Save Files

Once a save has been loaded and you've clicked Import, you should see your party loaded on the left side and you will have access to a few save editing functions.

Except for the batch edging function, after making any changes to a pokemon, you must click save to apply the changes.

Party Pokemon specific functions

You can pre-damage a pokemon in your party by first selecting the pokemon in the calc and modifying its current HP stat.

You can pre-status a pokemon in your party by setting its status in the calc. In gen 4, setting status to sleep will always result in your pokemon waking up the first turn.

General Functions

You can modify the moveset, items and level, evs, and nature (if gen 5) of any pokemon.

Edging/Modifying Level

To edge one or more pokemons, right click to select the pokemon to party view.

Click the purple button that says Edge and enter a number here.

All selected pokemon will now be set to 1 exp away from whatever level you entered.

It does not matter whether or not pokemon are in your party or in the box for edging. Because Dynamic Calc has access to the rom hack's pokemon data, stats will not revert to base game stats like they would if you used PKHex to edge in party.

Downloading your Save

After making any changes to a save file, a changelog and the download .sav button will appear. Click the download .sav button to download
