english09 Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 I noticed that PKHeX seems to now take into consideration initial seeds with a given TID and SID on a game to calculate whether the PID of a Pokemon is possible with that game/TID/SID combo. Am I understanding it correct that this is a new level of legality checking and that we should now use RNG reporter to find legal PID's for our Pokemon given a TID/SID combo? Does this mean that many Pokemon that were marked as legal in the past (such as with the old legalitychecker.exe program for Gen 4) are now going to be marked illegal?

If they were modified/created, it's a possibility..
Sabresite Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 The only things that legality checker was not checking properly were gen 3 events. Some of them will be marked illegal because of the relationship between PID/IV/OTG. Unfortunately PKHex doesn't check the relationship properly either.
english09 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Posted July 17, 2017 Ok because I noticed my Gen 3 Manectric (edited IV's and generated a new PID for it in accordance with its method) was originally marked as legal with legality checker and is now marked as illegal with PKHeX (file attached below). Is this a false positive/negative or an actual issue with the way the PID was generated? 310 - MANECTRIC - C2A6C6AED9B0.pk3
Kaphotics Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 PKHeX improves over time; just because something was(nt) flagged in a prior version doesn't mean that the program was correct. PKHeX's Reroll button does not create valid PIDIV types (it's pure random). The program only randomizes to keep Nature/Gender/Form values the same, as PIDIV combos are limited. It is left to the user to provide legal data, if they so wish. 2

If you edited/gened some 4th gen Pokémon, they are likely to be ilegal now. I checked all my stuff and had to change some PIDs o make them legal. For now I have some 3th gen Mews and Chansey and Drowzee with Wish. They are marked as legal in the PkHex version I built today. If somebody want them, just ask
Freshh Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 @BlackPyoVic how did you get your wish chansey a legal pid?

You get random IVs dependind on the PID (In those gens, even legendaries didn't have 3 perfect IVs for sure). But you still can Hyper train them at lvl 100 to get perfect stats. But you can try searching por a PID with some perfect IVs as well.
MetalMan Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 Just signed up to chime in on this. PID doesn't seem to do anything to actually trip any flags. First, I went and looked through my gen 3/4 mons to find six that had invalid PIDs - I put them all on a team, and I was able to go on battle spot with them. Then, I genned a shiny Emerald Mew, with an invalid PID of course, and I managed to trade it to strangers online. I've tested this again and again since then, and the only problem I ever had was with a Huntail not having been traded, I believe. From what I've seen, you can just ignore PIDs being invalid altogether.
Sabresite Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Just because GF's legality checks are lacking, doesn't mean those were naturally possible 1
Freshh Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 So @Sabresite PKHEX`s legality checker isnt the same as GF's.? Is it based off of it ?

GF legality checker almost doesn't exist. PKHeX Legality checker is based on our community's YEARS-worth of knowledge regarding game mechanics and RNG, all neatly jam-packed into one program. 1 1
Freshh Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 damnn. thats good to know. I never knew it worked like that. thanks for the info

theSLAYER Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Specifically, use Method 2 for PID generation, then change details to match, such as the IVs, Nature, Gender. (Ability needs to be changed, but in later generations ability capsule can be used, so..) BTW, seeing the word "useless" suggests battle usage. dont use any hacked Pokemon against unsuspecting opponents!

I only use them against friends, I never use Pokémon from Pkhex in battle spot By the way what's the method to change extreme speed Zigzagoon's PID? I have a normal one and I wanna make it shiny
theSLAYER Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 @MorenoReno AFAIK, It's PID type isn't generated by RNGreporter

Speaking of which, @theSLAYER, do we have have an entry for it with a zip of all of them in it?

I recall owning a zip, but I'm gonna need to check. btw I wanna double check something. did the PCNY eggs Pokemon come as wonder card (I recall it to be so).
Sabresite Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Yes they were a wondercard distributed to only Fr/Lg via wireless. No shiny check, and had a fateful encounter flag. 1
