The goal of PKSav is to be a small, fast, and portable library for interacting with

and manipulating Pokémon save files. It is written in pure C with no external dependencies,

which allows it to be deployed on a wide variety of platforms, from PC's to smartphones to

handheld consoles.

It is not meant to be a plug-and-play solution to save editing but rather the

internal workings of a larger library that provides users with a more convenient interface.

Being written in C, it can easily be wrapped in a larger C/C++/Objective-C library or be called as native

functions in languages such as C# or Java.

Currently, only American save files are supported, as save files from different regions are often laid

out differently, usually to accomodate strings having different lengths between regions.
