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.
