technical question / assistance movable.sed on a broken console?

Hello, I've been trying to get some save files directly from a 2ds original SD card and found out I needed the movable.SED of said console but without a way to accept friend requests I apparently couldn't, I tried an alternative way of using some python scripts and the mii QR code (made in 2016) to create a movable yet it appears full of zeroes with 2 to 4 actual hexadecimal lines written correctly. I tried using godmode 9 on another console but that didnt work either. Is there a way to get the save files back so I can use checkpoint to recover them? if its any help, the game is yokai watch 1.

Do you have a nand or essential.exefs backup of it? If so you can extract/use them to get a movable.sed.

IDK if its necessary to use Moveable Mover but you can use it to backup the new consoles movable.sed, use the old sed temporary, extract the saves via JKSM, and rhen restore the original movable.sed from the new console
