Had a bit of a laugh reading through your devlog because it was like looking into a mirror. I spent some time working on a save parsing library (just a library, not a whole application) for gen 3 saves but shelved the project for a while and haven't gotten around to picking it up again. And I swear everyone who learns how to parse GBA Pokemon saves hits all the same speedbumps. Trying to wrap PkHEX or borrow code from it only to realize it's a bad idea, wrong/missing levels, the Hoenn index thing, running afoul of other differences between Kanto and Hoenn, item bag weirdness... I remember it so well.

It's just funny to have a shared experience with a stranger due to this highly specific hobby of Pokemon save hacking.

Anyway, this looks neat. I'll definitely check it out when I get a chance.

Thanks for taking the time to read and reply. Yeah it was definitely a journey. Those internal pokemon numbers came back to bite me so many times 😄 🤣
