Help making legal shiny

[TailTactics]

I am trying to "revive" my old pokemon game because it ws stolen from me and I had a max of 1000+ hrs. Luckily I recorded the IVs and natures of the shinies I found in the wild (w/o using AR) -i legitamately caught them. Now with this new game file I am trying to recreate them in pokeSAV. Thing is when I try and generate a PID w/ the shiny box checked, it automatically unchecks the box when I go to select the correct type. So in a nutshell it will not give me the correct PID/IV of a shiny. In the legality checker it always comes up as a hacked pokemon *type* for my shiny due to when I go to recheck the box for shiny it creates an invalid set of PID/IV correlation. :bidoof: Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanx in advance.

Either way, you should set in the top right of the Pokemon editing window the language to ENG, otherwise your Pokemon isn't from anywhere.

To get a shiny, make your Pokemon to have hatched, then any PID from "Generate" will do and it's still legal.

Thx for reply. Is there any way to edit for a legit type (Normal NDS or GBA) as shiny? And should shinies be this type if so? I just want to be able to edit for a legit shiny with the correct type caught in the wild.

EDIT:

I set the country to ENG and still no avail

If you chained it, it'll relate to your trainer and secret ID, so if those are wrong, you'll have a tough time.

Setting the country won't change shinyness, it will just make the pokemon legal.

To get a shiny wild pokemon, use the PID generator and follow the instructions in the file and on the readme to generate a shiny PID, then put it into pokesav. You can go for either chained shiny or normal shiny, depending on how you want it.

my trainer and secret ID are correct when editing this pkmn. I didnt chain for my shinies, either when I caught them. Any other suggestions?

"Correct" as in correct numbers or as in "original PID from the old game"?

Correct as in the numbers IV/nature/ Secret and trainer ID.. but not PID
