Remove Time Penalties in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

The game will lock time based events for 24 hours when any of these happen:

Adjusting time on emulators is fine because it acts as if real world time has passed, not as if you're changing console settings.

Emulators (Citra, Lime3DS, Azahar)

That's it! You can now set the date to any future date without penalty.

Update your Pokemon Game to the latest version.
Set your console date to be earlier than your desired date.
Start the game, save, then close the game.
Enable IPS patching with our patch guide.
Create a Luma patch folder if it doesn't exist:
- Omega Ruby: /luma/titles/000400000011C400/
- Alpha Sapphire: /luma/titles/000400000011C500/
Download the code.ips for your specific game and copy it to the patch folder
- Omega Ruby code.ips
- Alpha Sapphire code.ips

If you run into any issues in the future, remove the patch and follow those steps again.
