3DS:Remove outlines in Pokémon games

From Hacks Guide Wiki
This is the approved revision of this page, as well as being the most recent.

Removing outlines in Pokémon games will require you to have CFW with Luma3DS, preferably updated to the latest version. This will remove outlines from the Player, NPCs and Pokémon, in overworld, battle and Pokémon Care. However, it will not remove outlines from the UI (text boxes, health bars and more). This is valid for all mainline Pokémon games (XY, ORAS and USUM). Other Pokémon games can't have their outlines removed.

For Pokémon Sun and Moon/Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon

  1. Open the Checkpoint app on the HOME Menu.
  2. Select your Pokémon game by pressing A when the icon is highlighted on the top screen.
    • If you do not see your game, try launching the game, playing for a while then closing it. Upon doing this, open Checkpoint again
    • If you still do not see your game, press and hold B to refresh the title list
  3. Select the Cheats button on the bottom screen.
  4. Search in the list for "No Outlines vX.X", then press A when the cheat is highlighted.
    • Replace "vX.X" with the current version you have for the game. For example, if you currently run the game using update v.1.1, get the cheat that says "No Outlines v1.1"
  5. Press A if Checkpoint prompts you to save the cheat file for this game.
  6. Close Checkpoint.
  7. Launch the game you chose the cheat for.
  8. Press L + D-Pad Down + SELECT to open the Rosalina Menu.
    • This is the default configuration; if you have broken buttons, you may be using an alternate configuration that changes the key combination to X + Y or Y + B
  9. Go to Cheats....
  10. Press A on "No Outlines vX.X".
  11. Press B until Rosalina Menu is closed.
    • If you did this while in-game, try walking to another area or going into a battle for the "No Outlines" cheat to be applied
