today i tried to make a east Gastrodon.
The problem is that legality checker tells me the gender check is invalid.
I tested and took a 100% legit Gastrodon file and changed it from west to east form
which made the gender check show invalid and is still if i change it back.
Also i tried to alter the PID by selecting a diffrent Type 1 PID which also made the gender check invalid.
I dont know what to do here.

Attach the PKM file to your message and I'll see what I can do.

I've hit a brick wall; I don't know enough about what Legal looks for in Gender Check to know what to change. However, simply making your Gastrodon male allows it to pass Legal. Since it's a hatched pokémon, you don't need to worry about PIDs, just flip its gender. Gastrodon has no visible gender differences.

anytime a pokemon fails a gender check. It's USUALLY because you somehow had both gender flags ticked. It's happened to me before. Just do what CNash suggested

Interesting that making it male makes the gender check legal.
Does esomeone know what actually is checked with the gender check ?
I actually tried using some PIDs which are 100% female but still its illegal.

I know a male one would look exactly the same.
But i am kinda a perfectionist and i am curious whats the case here.
