PKHeX
=====
![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-GPLv3-blue.svg)
Pokémon core series save editor, programmed in [C#](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_Sharp_%28programming_language%29).
Supports the following files:
* Save files ("main", .sav)
* Individual Pokémon entity files (.pk*)
* Mystery Gift files (.pgt, .pcd, .pgf, .wc6) including conversion to .pk*
* Importing teams from Decrypted Battle Videos (X/Y/OR/AS only)
* Transferring from one generation to another, converting formats along the way.
Data is displayed in a view which can be edited and saved.
The interface can be translated with resource/external text files so that different languages can be supported.
Pokémon Showdown sets and QR codes can be imported/exported to assist in sharing.
Nintendo 3DS savedata containers use an AES MAC that cannot be emulated without the 3DS's keys, thus a resigning service is required (svdt, save_manager, or SaveDataFiler).

## Building
PKHeX is a Windows Forms application which requires .NET Framework v4.0.
The executable can be built with any compiler that supports C# 6.0.
## Dependencies
PKHeX's QR code generation code is taken from [QRCoder](https://github.com/codebude/QRCoder), which is licensed under [the MIT license](https://github.com/codebude/QRCoder/blob/master/LICENSE.txt).
### IDE
PKHeX can be opened with IDEs such as [Visual Studio](https://www.visualstudio.com/) or [MonoDevelop](http://www.monodevelop.com/) by opening the .sln or .csproj file.
### GNU/Linux
On Debian, you can install MonoDevelop and [Mono](http://www.mono-project.com/) runtime with `sudo apt-get install monodevelop`. GNU/Linux is not the main Operating System of developers of this program so there may be bugs; some may come from non GNU/Linux specific code of Mono (so developers using *BSD, Windows and OS X should be able to reproduce them).
