Just want to dupe items in SV

[weary pulsar]

Hello! Complete clueless newbie. No programming knowledge or experience.

The guide links to a chipboard on Amazon that’s not available.

All I want to do is dupe items in SV before updating to the new version.

Is there a simple cheap arduino unit I can buy that’s available on Amazon? And a simple script process to run?

The online guide is overwhelming for someone of my level.

Thanks for any help… 🙏

What version do you have of the games?

Because if you don't have 1.0 then duping items is no longer possible.

[weary pulsar]

Purposely have not updated as I know the patch today removed the clones. Have a whole box of clones and in party clone.

Search Amazon for Arduino Leonardo

[glossy raft]

do you have cloned legendaries?

[weary pulsar]

I have the ride Pokémon cloned. A whole box.

[glossy raft]

then arudino leonardo

capture card

uart

whole set

[weary pulsar]

Is this the one I need?

[glossy raft]

yes that will work

[weary pulsar]

Thanks for the help then I need the other two things you mentioned? Then I have to find the item dupe script to run?

[glossy raft]

yes

once you have all set you can run all computer control program

not just item dupe

[weary pulsar]

Cool. I just need to dupe items so I can update the game. 🤣 maybe someday I would do more. But this is all I need/want to do right now

[glossy raft]

yeah sure, anyway you need whole set to get clone work

[weary pulsar]

Thank you. The guide has links to the other parts. I will see if I can get this all together then. Appreciate the help. 🙇‍♀️

[glossy raft]

anytime!

[shy trail]

The update didn't wipe out my clones. But they are useless anyway now, right?

[hoary sandal]

If you're on 1.2 then yes.

[shy trail]

Yep I did. I pretty much cloned what I needed. I probably shouldn't have but ... I did.

RIP

Isn’t it possible to dupe the items without the capture card and additional stuff? Just with the Leo board and program?

[dusty bramble]

Yes there's a Microcontroller version:
https://github.com/PokemonAutomation/Microcontroller/blob/master/Wiki/Programs/PokemonSV/ItemDupe.md

Though a cheap capture card is quite affordable ($10-15?) which will let you use all the Computer Controlled programs. Including automated shiny Paradox hunting 👀

[glossy raft]

mc program also works, but sv is a little laggy so the cc version is better, anyway you can just try mc program then deiced if you want to change to cc

[weary pulsar]

Thanks you for the link! I want to try out the simple cheapest way first and quickly. Then like you say @glossy raft upgrade if and when I’m ready! Really appreciate this help.

[weary pulsar]

And I just need the Leo board for that? Just want to be sure I buy the right item. Thanks! 🙏

[glossy raft]

yes

[weary pulsar]

Perfect. Again thanks. I will order the Leo board I lined to before today! 🙌🙌

[dusty bramble]

Remember to get a compatible UART cable / jumper wires too

[glossy raft]

mc no need for uart cable

just board

[weary pulsar]

Okay thanks again to you both! 🙏🙇‍♀️ @dusty bramble @glossy raft

[weary pulsar]

The tool has arrived and now figuring out the script. Will report back when it’s up and running! Exciting times! 😁😁🙌

[weary pulsar]

Quick question. Once the script is up and running, it just keeps going even if it’s maxed out? So I can go to bed and wake up and reset it and not worry it does something weird once it hits the max and keeps going?

[cunning crystal]

it sounds like you are running the MC version, that doesn't stop until you manually unplug it

that said, MC programs don't have state detection from video feed so any sequence breaks due to button input miss can happen so it's not advised to run it for very extended time without checking on it once in a while

[weary pulsar]

Okay! It’s running now! I wanted to go to bed. But I’ll have to run it in the daytime 🤣

Thanks for the advice.

And yes. Micro controller version!
