[Error] [Feature] Nicknames

[XerneusGuy]

I know it's not the biggest of things but nicknamed event pokemon pass as legal in PKHeX, and I know it's technically possible with RNG but Global Link still bans save files with nicknamed event pokemon used online (I used a nicknamed shiny Koko event). Is there any way to implement some kind of warning to nicknamed event pokemon?

I imagine this would be hard to implement though. Events like the Dusk Rockruff for example (with Fateful Encounter and Cherish Ball) use the redeeming trainer's details, so they can be renamed. If this is ever attempted one would need to make a table of events that can be renamed (along with other edge cases).

is it possible that something else caused the ban, tho.

No need for a table, PKHeX already knows when the receiver should be the OT when generating the pkm. Can refactor the logic and expose a "Can Nickname" property for all mystery gift objects.

Probably still a good idea to put it under the Severity = 0 category (Fishy) so it does not mark it as illegal. (Since it technically can still be legal to nickname the Pokemon and then trade it over to another trainer in game)

I've been testing a bunch of things to see what flags a ban, and from my knowledge the only thing on that save was the nicknamed shiny Koko
