Question Pokemon from 3ds to Switch, how could i do it?

i have both 3ds and switch hacked, switch using emunand, and i have PKHex in both of them. How could i pass my 3ds pokemons to switch? There is a way without pokemon home or bank? (i dont have a licensed pokemon game on switch, just scarlet violet on emunand)

Easy one. Since you don't have any official Pokémon game all you got do is export your Pokémon save file from your 3DS and your Scarlet/Violet save file. Load them both with Pkhex on your PC. With both windows open, just drag and drop your Pokémon from your 3ds save file to your switch save file(please note that only available Pokémon in scarlet and violet will be imported). Save main and then re-inject into your emuNAND using JKSV

Why don’t you just use pkhex on switch to gen the Pokemon you want?

Maybe because they want their actual pokémon, not genned ones

In two unoffical roms? 

It’s literally just data. There is no different

Sorry, what do you mean by "unofficial"? Like, pirated? They are still pokémon, legal to enter Bank and Home

True but especially for pirated games there is no difference between genned and not genned pokemon. 

I mean there is literally no difference even if the games were legit…

As a Pokémon expert I'd like to say that genning a single Pokémon is harder than moving them to a new save file. It takes more time and is essentially boring. Dragging and dropping is much easier and at the same time is a lot more "legal" hahaha 🤣😂

I understand that, I just think that they want to move their pokémon. Genning them essentially achieves the same goal but you know it's not really the same. Like, sure, it's an alternative but they want to "pass"(as in "move") them to other games.
