Hack or not hack?

[Lugiamaster]

Hey guys I have a question

The other day I got a breloom over a wifi trade but here is a problem

Its from hoenn but its ability is poison heal

obviously I thought it was a hack so I contacted the guy I got it from

He said that it was from hoenn but it was a shroomish when he mirgrated it and when it evolved, its ability changed

is this correct?

Breloom can have Poison Heal as an ability anyway.

Edit: Though I haven't your question, I think it's possible for it to happen anyway, maybe.

Well with the case of Porygon2 > Porygon-Z theres a 50% chance the ability will change ( I think, I dont remember the exact numbers ) and I know it can change so it doesn't seem like it would be a hack.

I believe Breloom can have Poison Heal as an ability in the first place.

It all relates to the PID, which there is a 1 in 2 chance (which is 50%)

Yes it is very well possible that it can have poison heal. That's a very nice ability to have, your lucky! Just make it hold a toxic orb if its on Platinum and it will be poisoned but the poison will heal it! So yeah, its legally possible.
