I'm a security researcher with a love for Pokémon. On this channel, we combine this love by finding exploits in Pokémon games, with a focus on the Nintendo DS games.
this video reminds me of old fake pokemon how-to videos. "if you talk to this guy after clicking enough dots on your poketch, and then delete your save, youll be automatically teleported to the hall of fame!"
2024, yes this works only on this copy. Pearl was not so lucky for me..(Rip to the Molly account) but my diamond copy was able to do this. One thing is for certain, have a Pokémon with Fly/ teleport; THOSE ARE YOU SAVERS. I’m just great full that I can transfer the God amongst all Pokémon into my party. It truly felt like breaking time & space to acquire such a Mon. ✌🏾
I saw a video from Trails Pokemon showing a method to obtain shiny Manaphy. Does that mean it’s possible then to obtain shinies for other mythical like Mew, Deoxys etc?
You can do anything with this. Get any Pokémon, item,, write a custom game, send data over wifi, hack GBA games in the second slot. There are no limits :)
so, i went a bit to far to the west side, and in the final warp screen for darkrai i am stuck in the rock on the right, and i cant open my menu or anything. is there anything i can do to get unstuck?
That was Great. I wonder if you will do codes for other lesser things like changing player name, gender, or sprite and make gen 4 hybrids safe to use? By the way, was entering the GTS on the video also due to ACE or by Wiimmfi?
I host a DNS server on my pc, route authentication towards pokeclassic, intercept requests to the /pokemondp/worldexchange, redirect those to my own PC, then simply have a HTTP server responding to those requests. The ACE is only necessary to interpret the packets as code to execute, but otherwise anyone can host a GTS server with this without ACE.
That's funny I fell in your videos just a few days back for nostalgia and you drop another bomb just now. Do any of your tricks work with platinum or are there too much code difference ? great job anyway
How is this any different from using an action replay code, not talking about the morality of it or whatever, in the sense of like how is it different from a technicality standpoint I guess you could say.
Action replay requires some form of hardware modification (that being the DS or an R4 cartridge or similar) to inject the codes. This doesn't, and can be done on any DS. It is also arguably more powerful than action replay, because any code can be created and sent to the game during gameplay. It does require (currently) quite some setup to get ACE in the first place, although there will be ways to make this easier soon.
The hope is that at some point most of the codes on the code generator will all be accessible through this, as this is so easy to use, no real mistakes can be made. But it does require extra effort on the PC, so I'll have to make sure this is easy to install for people.
So basically, the ACE code redirects request headed to the GTS to a local server, that instead of returning Pokemon data executes code that you setup on the local server ? Can the code be as long as you want ? Is it made of ASM ?
@@ulqi I don't require ACE to connect to my PC over GTS, for that all you need is to spoof the DNS requests sent from the DS. But to actually interpret the data as code, you do need ACE. The code sent is indeed Assembly, although you can also write the code in C and compile to assembly. Mored etails will be put in the README of the repository in the description.
I haven't looked into it yet. But I'm assuming this is a separate vulnerability from the one present in the DS wifi code, which is used by Wiimmfi and others to patch games?
This one requires ACE to already be present on the game, to then cause the RCE. A full seperate RCE without prior ACE does exist too, and can be used to set this one up: jorikdevreese.com/index.php/2024/02/17/remote-code-execution-in-generation-4-pokemon-games-through-mystery-gifts/
I haven't made videos in a long time because I no longer have the time to combine the long editing with my work. However, I have always continued my research. I thought it became time to share some of these findings, even if they're in a simpler format.
So, I got all the way to the pokemon center lady on one of my attempts but didn’t soft reset before it sent me into the room. So then I restarted it, and now every single time I try to do this glitch, my game crashes at step 64 heading north every single time. I’ve done it 4 times now restarting getting all the way to that point and it crashes
Just curious, what makes this "run" ineligible for the any% leaderboard? It looks like you start this run on a fresh save (though the dot artist setup beforehand means you did something silly with the save deletion)
If you only follow to the rules described on the leaderboards, technically this is the World Record. However, obviously given the technicalities of setting up ACE beforehand and keeping it running while the game is rebooted isn't in the spirit of the run, and would get rejected. I did not intend to win on a technicality here :) Nothing weird happened with the save deletion. In fact, the save is 100% fresh and reset as intended. But code is still running in the background nonetheless, read the post linked in the description for more info.
Im glad you still upload someone that is still holding on to my favourite gen after all the bad pkmn games we get nowadays its refreshing to know theres someone like you out there
There are no bad Pokemon games, only bad AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH RRRRRREEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGG sorry I saw a spider and got scared what was I saying?
