vree Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) So I got a few shiny pokémon (no legendaries, just normal random encountered pokémon) on Arceus game (Shiny encounter - Edizon). Does PKHeX has some way to make them auto legit? Or what steps should I take to make them actual legit? PS: I have not uploaded them yet in pokehex, but I assume they will pop up as non-legit. Thanks in advance for any help. EDIT: It seems they show up as ultra-shiny, but legit. I thought pokemon legend arceus did not have ultra shinies? So is this a red flag?

HundOh Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) I'm pretty new to PKHeX, just trying to edit some genuine mons, and a handful are showing as illegal after making edits. I'm using the most recent build of PKHeX from 22.02.14 with save files exported through JKSV. I have a pair of Araquanid from the Max Lair. Untouched, they pass the legality check. I'm just trying to change their ability from Water Absorb to Water Bubble and then suddenly I get three errors: 4th move (Poison Jab) is invalid/unable to match the encounter from origin game/OT Memory: Can't obtain Location on OT Version. I have a Torkoal met a Motostoke Riverbank. I try to change its speed from 31 to 0 and I get the following error: Encounter Type PID mismatch. Shiny Palossand from Loop Lagoon, trying to reduce speed from 21 to 0 and I get the error: Encounter type PID mismatch Alolan Marowak from Max Lair, trying to change its ability from Rock Head to Lightning Rod. I get an invalid move error and unable to match from origin game. I've had a few other similar errors but hopefully if I understand what the issue is with these, I can fix any other weird legality flags I encounter.

I’ve amended what I said in this portion before I posted it. Refer to the Marowak response below. On 3/13/2022 at 3:53 PM, HundOh said: have a Torkoal met a Motostoke Riverbank. I try to change its speed from 31 to 0 and I get the following error: Encounter Type PID mismatch. For many SWSH encounters, EC-PID-IVs-HT-WT are correlated. You change one of them, the correlation breaks. That’s the error message you got. basically either change them all to a legal combination based on the correlation, or don’t change them at all.

Hidden Abilities cannot be changed to regular abilities in-game, so what you did is not legal. If you want a non-HA copy, gotta use a different encounter.

Use the encounter database to find something that meets your requirements (hence "use a different encounter). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfiniDim Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Hello! I'm just trying to stick a Battle Memory Ribbon on a pokemon from Emerald (faraway island Mew), and for some reason it's invalid Im assuming it's related to the mew having not actually participated in a battle yet. Does that sound right? If yes, what so I need to do in the PKSM hex editor to make that legal? I tried adding a bit of exp and that didn't fix it. Maybe some effort values?

Battle Memory Ribbons are not possible on several Pokémon (mostly mythicals, but some legendary/"special" pokemon as well), as they are entirely banned from participating in the battle facilities. See the following pages below for lists of Pokémon that cannot obtain Gen 3/4 Battle Facility ribbons, and are therefore ineligible for a Battle Memory Ribbon in later generations where those ribbons are consolidated:https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Battle_Tower_(Generation_III)#Restrictionshttps://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Battle_Tower_(Sinnoh)#Restrictionshttps://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Battle_Frontier_(Generation_IV)#Overview Edited March 27, 2022 by Atrius97 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been over a decade since I played Emerald, and I unfortunately lost all of save data at some point, so I wanted to give myself this one mythical as a sort of consolation for everything I lost, and stick one of each memory ribbons on it to symbolize my accomplishments in those worlds as well. I guess I could just give myself one more mon, but I already don't like cheating personally. I'm only giving myself this mew because I had one before, I can get another one now from SP, and I always especially wanted that unobtainable faraway island one... Oh well, I'll figure it out. Thanks for the resources! Btw, I had a small side question. So the Mew is totally legal, but only without a met location. When I mark it as faraway island, it says invalid met location, expected Poké transfer. I'm editing in Alpha Sapphire. Is this normal for that Mew, or have I given myself the wrong one?

You’re using the correct Mew. Gens 4 and 5 change the met location during the transfer process. So all Pokémon from gens 3 and 4 will have a met location of Poke Transfer since that is what gen 5 sets the location to. All future gens don’t change the met location. Also side note the only legal Faraway Island are the Japanese ones since the event was never released outside of Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cappy Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Hi! I noticed a Rapidash from an old Diamond save of mine is flagged as invalid because the contest sheen value is apparently too high? Her beauty stat is 19 with a total sheen of 48, but according to PKHeX the sheen should be 44 or lower. (I've attached the Pokémon file for reference.) I don't know why this value would be flagged - from what I can tell, it makes sense for a Pokémon that was fed a few low-quality poffins. I'm not sure if this is relevant but I transferred her to White version years ago, which is why she's a .pk5. 078 - Priori - 0D0BF186C652.pk5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boogiefrogs Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Hi there! I am trying to understand how memories work. Take Groudon from Max Lair as example. The one I caught only has memories with me. But if I use PKHeX to make one, the "remember a move" guy in the PokeCentre will say Groudon has memories with a previous trainer. Is there a way to not have "previous" memories so it looks like it was caught as opposed to traded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I've realized that this can likely only be done with a modded switch where I would modify the save file directly, and re-import. I unfortunately do not have a modded switch and was relying on bots but was hoping there was a way to force it so it wouldn't have a "traded" memory. Unless I am mistaken and it can be done with a trade bot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just do a bunch of things with it in-game to try to change the memory. But do note in the data, it will have the bot as NotOT, unless you managed to trade it with someone else.

Zali Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Hi, so i wanted to make a legal-looking gen 3 (fire red) cerulean cave shiny Mewtwo. I'm doing it mostly for fun and online battling, so no unfair trading. I'm doing it for USUM (Ultra Sun) if that matters. I think i did everything right, i set up the memories (ill send a ss just in case), no ribbons, legal moves, Met section is OG Game FireRed met in Poke Transfer met level 70 and the date is in 2020 so im completely sure it was obtainable by that point, he is not a fatefull encounter, i tried to use him with my OT and a random OT and im sending over both pk7 files, im new to this so i couldave looked over something simple so if someone could help i'd be very thankful 150 ★ - Kapow - C7F1EC6BE777 (my OT).pk7 150 ★ - Kapow - C872EC6BE777.pk7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
