How to: Get Eon Ticket for Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire on Nintendo 3DS.
Raw
Tutorial.md
  1. Fake a special Wi-Fi access point.
    1. The goal is to disguise your Wi-Fi access point to trick your 3DS into believing that it's in contact with some special Wi-Fi access points.
    2. The following steps are assuming using a Mac computer just because that's what I did. If you have some other devices, the overall process should be similar.
    3. Change the MAC address of your Wi-Fi card.
      1. Write down the original MAC address of the Wi-Fi card so you can restore it later. You could find the MAC address in your system report.
      2. Also find the network interface name of your Wi-Fi card. In my case that's "en1".
      3. Turn on your Wi-Fi so that the Wi-Fi card is powered on.
      4. Open Terminal, run sudo ifconfig en1 ether 4E:53:50:4F:4F:4C to change the MAC address of your Wi-Fi card. This exact MAC address worked for me. But in case it doesn't work for you, I also found a few others that I have not tested but may work:
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:43"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:44"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:45"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:46"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:47"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:48"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:49"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:4A"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:4B"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:4C"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:4D"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:4E"
        • "4E:53:50:4F:4F:4F"
    4. Configure your Wi-Fi card into a hotspot with a special name.
      1. In <System Preferences>, go to <Sharing> and turn on <Internet Sharing>.
      2. Make sure to select "Wi-Fi" in the list "To computers using:".
      3. Also in <Wi-Fi Options>, Make sure to have <Network Name> set to "attwifi" exactly and <Security> set to "None".
  2. Open your 3DS and make sure StreetPass is enabled.
  3. Get into Pokemon Omega Ruby and/or Alpha Sapphire and activate <SpotPass>.
    1. When you are in game, launch <PlayNav>.
    2. Open <PSS>.
    3. Press the top center button to see a list of modules.
    4. Open <Holo Caster>.
    5. Click <Activate SpotPass>.
  4. Go to your device settings and connect it to the "attwifi" access point that's just been created.
  5. Get back into the game, close the lid and wait till the LED indicator flashes green.
  6. Now go back to the game and open <BuzzNav>, a new message would be available for you.
  7. Go to a Pokemon Center and talk to a special character to receive the Eon Ticket.
  8. Make sure to save after getting the Eon Ticket.
  9. Remember the changes you have made to fake the Wi-Fi access point? You might want to revert those changes.

Hi, I was wondering if you could tell me how to find my network interface name. I cant seem to figure out how to do so.

If you are using macOS, in the System Information app, you should be able to see something like this:

Note that this is just what I see and you might have something very different.

You could also find the network interface name with the command line tools such as netstat and ifconfig. When you run the appropriate commands, netstat -i for instance, you would get a list of network interfaces along with their MAC addresses. Use your MAC address to reverse lookup the network interface name.
