That's...really bizarre.

The only thing I can think of that might help is like, 3DS PowerSaves?

But I don't really recall how that works. I don't think it works like, you stick the cart in and it dumps the save and then you can edit the save in PKHex, but I could be wrong. You might look it up on Youtube to see if it might help.

But honestly, just hack your 3DS, it takes like 5 minutes, download JKSV and dump the save to your PC.

I'm not sure what caused this issue. I have about 12 3DS pokemon games across Gen6 and Gen7 and never had this happen.

From what i gathered it could be a fault on my SD card that caused the issue or something happened when the game saved, because (if i understood it correctly) the system and game use two sets of "passwords" that have to match in order for the file to load properly or it could be something else. I just don't know.

Luckily a lot of my valuable shinies are on other editions, but my biggest worries are that Marshadow and Zeraora were on that version.

I know that i could do it but i don't want to hack my 3DS. It goes against my moral/ethics to do this.
