Question about the legality of Gen 2 Celebi

Recommended Posts

Just to know why it's only legal when the save is named sav.dat and not any other name, as PokemonCrystal.sav?

If it's legal for one, it should be for the other one, no?

I know it's because the event got only released on virtual console versions and they use the sav.dat name, but meh, as I said, it's a legal celebi in both case, if it just depend of the save's name, the pk2 file doesn't differ.

Could you add a legality check that doesn't depend on the save's name?

".dat" is the save file name from Virtual Console savefiles.

".sav" is from any other source, like an emulator.

 

The only way you can get the Crystal Celebi outside of a Japanese game is on a Virtual Console game.

PKHeX uses the savefile extension to determine where the save file came from (gameboy cart/emulator, or 3DS Virtual Console).
