Install the Base64 writer

needs ACE unlockedadvanced

The , made by Mettrich, reads the box names and writes a whole Pokémon to Box 14, slot 30. Once it's installed, any Pokémon you create here goes into your game with a single trigger, with the , and nickname exactly as you set them.

  1. Get working. See Unlock ACE.
  2. Set up the writer. Follow MankeyMite's interactive guide and pick FireRed or LeafGreen on Switch. It's five codes that create a Metang named WELDR (it goes to Box 14, slot 28), plus a Pokémon with the nickname the guide tells you (slot 29).
  3. Clear the area. From row 2 of Box 13 through Box 14, slot 30, keep everything empty, except for the writer's pieces.
  4. Generate the names. In Editor, create or open the Pokémon and go to "Put in your game".
  5. Check and type. The Codes page shows which Pokémon the names will create and the key for each letter.
  6. Save and trigger. The Pokémon shows up in Box 14, slot 30.
When the Switch rejects a name

The site already builds the names with the Switch in mind, without changing the Pokémon. If a box still gets rejected, use "Convert" on it: the uppercase letters become symbols the writer reads the same way.

If it goes wrong

A or scrambled data means a typo: restart without saving and compare on the Codes page. If the game crashes, a writer piece is out of place or something is sitting in the clear area. Shorter box names don't get a space at the end.
