Inquiry about some questionable pokemon

[Hello, it's me!]

So recently in a pokemon group i  saw someone giving away shiny BR larvesta and volcarona with gameboy icon 

 

 

 

Now i know nintendo has their hack checks to prevent illegal pokemon to trade through ( for example i tried to shinify the hurricane lugia but it didn't went through WT )

So why on earth would they allow a GB icon pokemon (  which obviously originated from gen 5 ) to be traded ?

( Moreover , how does one go about making such a pokemon in pkhex  )

[BlackShark]

First of all never trust Nintendo's hack checks, they are terrible and tend to allow many illegal Pokemon. I'm not sure if the servers even have checks for impossible met locations.
Making such a Pokemon is very easy, just set the origin game to be any of the gen 1/2 games.

That just made me laugh, lol.

That basically means the Larvesta had its origin game set to Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal.
The online hack checks don't properly check for origin game, so save editing allows this kind of crap to exist

Gamefreak sure has a lot to explain here

i just find it unfair that they wont allow shiny hurricane lugia but is okay with GB larvesta
