I just downloaded the new update and when I opened one of my Emerald save files with an Electabuzz I caught on XD in it, it says it is illegal with an Encounter Type PID Mismatch.

 

I've attached a .pk3 of the aforementioned Electabuzz.

125 - ELECTABUZZ - 725670435275.pk3

There's something wrong with the electabuzz.
My other and XD pokemon doesn't have issues.

Did you catch this yourself? Was it on emu or official hardware?

Caught it myself on official hardware (Gamecube) a few months ago, no hacks or tampering of any sort.

EDIT: Could it be because I caught it after the initial encounter (i.e. through Miror B.?)

Tho, changing the location and met level doesn't fix it, tho.

Maybe it's something else.

Shadow Lock checks were recently added. We didn't find any edge cases, but this may be one.

Basically the game generates the non-shadow mons and shadow mons; they're forced to certain Nature/Gender/non-shininess, so the PID generation loops until a valid one is found. PKHeX probably isn't finishing the final verification to the OT -- I suspect that the NPC got a shiny reroll which throws things off a little.

@Admiral_Fish if you're at all curious about this :)
