A Nintendo Switch homebrew application that reads the Shiny Stash from Pokemon Legends: Z-A in real-time and displays each entry's spawn location on an interactive map.

What it does:

Reads the Shiny Stash block (up to 10 entries) directly from game memory via Atmosphere's dmnt:cht service
Displays an interactive list of all stashed shiny Pokemon with species name, Pokedex number, and spawn location
Shows the selected Pokemon's spawn point on the corresponding map (Lumiose City, Lysandre Labs, The Sewers, The Sewers B)
All other stash entries on the same map are shown as gold dots for an overview of shiny locations
Decrypts PKX-encrypted PA9 data and converts Gen9 internal species IDs to National Dex numbers

Installation

Requirements:

Nintendo Switch with Atmosphere Switch CFW
dmnt:cht service enabled (default in Atmosphere)
Pokemon Legends: Z-A must be running in the background

Instructions:

Download the .nro file from the Releases page.
Copy it to the /switch/ folder on the SD card.
