Ah, yeah. Last I tried ftp I got it to connect but any subsequent attempts it would act like it wasn’t available. I modded a N2DSXL so the Micro SD isn’t as cumbersome to get to. The system is a massive fingerprint magnet though lol.

That back plate can be a pain to deal with if it breaks or goes missing. Definitely don’t blame wanting to not mess with that. (It’s why I opted to not mod my N3DSXL). May be worth getting a replacement from a donor system or an aftermarket replacement down the road.

Hopefully you have better luck with OpenHome than I did. The appimage would consistently crash for me on Bazzite (was able to get it working on an old MacBook I have laying around, but I’m not going to add another device just to use it lol); I’d think CachyOS would have an easier time with it, which I think there’s multiple ways to install it there in comparison if I remember right

That would be awesome if they do so. I like /e/OS for what it is and does, my FP4 works great after all. That said, having the option for Graphene OS I feel would do nothing but benefit all parties, so hopefully that can be addressed at some point.

From what I’ve read elsewhere (seen some comments here, don’t remember the exact threads) the Graphene team has a specific hardware requirement that Fairphone doesn’t supply. Would be cool to see both projects working together though

Oh, nice! That will definitely be doable then. I was able to get ftp to work once, but that was with Bazzite. I’ve mainly been moving the micro SD card instead of trying to resolve the ftp issue lol.

In that case the simplest path for you would be to take your saves, put the ones you want to move into PK Vault (haven’t had luck with OpenHome on Linux) and send them to either a gen 6 or gen 7 save. PK Vault will give you a heads up if there’s any potential issues before migrating. Then from there, to the 3DS > Bank > Home

I think having that deadline will be a fun challenge, and I’m considering transferring them all to Pokemon Home (I’m not sure what all that will require though so it’s more of a “that would be a fun thing to do” scenario).

As someone who’s trying to migrate everything to home there’s a decent amount of options out there. From the screenshots, it looks like you’re playing off an emulator, so you would first need a way to migrate your save file or files to the original hardware however possible. Once it’s on original hardware, simply use Pokemon Bank and then you can transfer to Pokemon Home.

The past few years I’ve played through the rom hacks of Yellow (Yellow Legacy) and Crystal (Crystal Legacy). This past month I migrated everything from those games to Ultra Moon. Once there, into bank and finally into home. So I can absolutely say that it’s very possible, but requires a few things:

•A modded 3DS with the checkpoint app installed

•If possible a second 3DS that isn’t modded (to mitigate any issues. 100% optional, but definitely a proceed at your own risk deal)

•The ability to migrate your saves between devices if playing on non native hardware

•Access to something like PKSM to validate your Pokemon (e.g. Yellow and Crystal legacy allow you to “catch em all.” Version exclusive Pokemon may be blocked or flagged when migrating. You have the option to modify when and where one was caught, if that’s important to you or whoever is reading this. How “legal” that is, may be considered a gray area for most people but the Pokemon company probably has something in place to detect if a Weedle is caught in Yellow).

•Optional but may keep things cleaner: importing your Pokemon into either a gen 6 or 7 cartridge

Normal migration can be done with the above information. I’ll update my reply with links to a few helpful tools in a bit that I have used or stumbled upon shortly.

Updated with hopefully better spacing. Was not supposed to have a giant paragraph like that. Here’s links for all the tools I mentioned:

Checkpoint which will allow for backing up and restoring your save files. This is essential if migrating to and from non native hardware over to the 3DS.

Either PKSM if adjusting/validating your Pokemon on the 3DS or PKHeX which will allow you to validate on your PC prior to using checkpoint.

And while PKSM also does what these two apps do, you have PKVault or OpenHome which are basically Pokemon Home programs for your PC. This can save a lot of time migrating into one game rather than jumping through all the hoops that Gamefreak and the Pokemon company setup for the older games.

Feel free to ask any questions if needed. Good luck if you decide to do the challenge!

And Kotor is worth returning to when you are ready to. One of the best Star Wars games out there

Cancelled after the announcement. Between the PS announcements and this I have zero regrets.
