This is an RNG tool for Pokemon Sword/Shield. Due to the nature of the games only raids are RNGable.
There are currently two ways to get the raid seed.
Option 1 (dumping the savefile):
-
This step requires a switch that either has CFW or is vulnerable to RCM. I will not cover how to dump a save from the switch as there are other resources for that.
-
You must install and setup PKHeX and the Raid Plugin for PKHeX.
-
Open the save file you dumped in PKHeX and open the Raid Plugin. It will tell you all the relevant information of each den in your save file.
Option 2 (dumping the pkm):
-
This step does not require a switch that either has CFW or is vulnerable to RCM. It does however require finding someone else that does have those capabilities.
-
Have this person join your raid and catch the pokemon. Afterwards they should either send you the .pk8 file or tell you the EC/PID/IVs of the pokemon.
-
Install z3 which raid_solver.py uses.
pip install z3-solver -
Use the raid_solver.py script that comes with RaidFinder and input the information it asks for. It will calculate your raid seed and output it to you.
