I’m not using a save file though, and I never have before. That’s why I’m confused as to why this started happening

Then it needs to be handled by the currently loaded Save File (probably is PKHeX). Don't disable the setting that automatically updates the handler data when you set it to a slot.

Try setting it to a slot in the save file, and check again.

I haven’t touched any settings, so that should still be on. By setting it to a slot I assume you mean the box locations to the right-hand side of pkhex? I have fairly limited knowledge on pkhex for anything other than making pk8 and pk9 files to use with a trade bot

I just wanted to make sure I "devolved" this Pokémon correctly. It's the Cyndaquil that was given as a MG in Home that has GV's in all stats.

The things I am unsure about:

• I left the height and weight values untouched and checked auto (when I didn't have it on auto, it didn't pass the legality check). That's what I had to do, right? Also, do the Home MG starters have fixed height/weight values?
• I noticed that rather than having 10 GV's in all stats, it had a set of high (but not 10) values and highlighted in green (like when hyper training). Is it supposed to be like that? I would think the starters would just have all 10 GV values but were they handled differently?

Pokemon FireRed generating a Shiny Starter

So I was able to create a Shiny Nidoran just fine using PkHex and PokeFinder, yet for the life of me my Charmeleon to be shiny. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. (And yes I know he has invalid moves). I am using the first result from PokeFinder.

The Errors I get are:
Invalid: Invalid Met Level, expected 0.
Invalid: PID - correlation does not match what was expected
for the Encounter's type.

It is NOT a PKHeX or PokeFinder error

Thank you so much for that. Wasn't sure why it was throwing the other errors for an invalid move
