## Preparation <a href="#h1_2" id="h1_2"></a>

2. Obtain the game through physical or digital and its update

## Installation <a href="#h1_3" id="h1_3"></a>

1. Insert your microsd to your computer (or android phone or whatever
2. Go to `atmosphere/content` and create your titleid.\
   Titleid:\
   Brilliant Diamond: 0100000011D90000\
   Shining Pearl: 010018E011D92000\
   Example: `atmosphere/contents/0100000011D90000`
3. Open the titleid folder and create a folder called romfs or exefs
4. Open romfs folder and drag and drop any Data folder from any mod
5. For mods with exefs, just drag and drop it into the titleid folder.

And you're done! You can play mods offline and online on your Nintendo Switch! Any questions, feel free in the comments.\
\
Note:\
\&#xNAN;*Be careful regarding using mods that alter things ingame (Speed mod) as those could potentially risk your account. Texture mods should be wifi-safe and won't affect gameplay. Not certain for random pokemon encounters (Meowth in Route 201) whether or not they're safe for online. But be careful. I hold no responsibility if you get yourself ban for using illegal Pokemon.*
