A few of the features in this fork requires to work (airplane toggle, faster link code entry and such).

To use usb-botbase:

  1. Download usb-botbase. It's a "hybrid", and comes with a config file which is set to "usb" by default (just change it to "wifi" if you want, well, WiFi).
  2. Download and use Zadig to install the libusbK driver for your Switch.
  3. Download and install libusb filters.
  4. Copy the contents of the extracted usb-botbase's folder to the root of your SD card.
  5. Reboot to payload, boot back into Atmosphere. After a short while, the right JoyCon should blink blue. Once it does, connect your Switch via a USB cable to your computer. If there's no blinking light, go back to step #4.
  6. Open Zadig, click on "Options" -> "List all devices".
  7. Select "Nintendo Switch", choose libusbK, click "Replace/Reinstall". Your driver should now be libusbK instead of WinUSB.
  8. Open the libusb filter wizard, click "Install a device filter", select your Switch.
  9. Start Pokémon Sword/Shield.
  10. On your computer open Device Manager, scroll down until you see "libusbK Devices", right click your device, select "Properties", make note of your USB port (without the leading zeroes).

  1. Run SysBot.exe, choose "USB" in the drop-down list, select a bot, enter your USB port in the "Port" field, click "Add", click "Start All".

Congratulations you now have the bot up and running!

Note: If running in USB mode, you do not need ldn_mitm. In fact, I would recommend not using ldn_mitm if exclusively using usb-botbase.
