Still unable to replicate. Did you disable Legality.Tradeback.AllowGen1Tradeback in settings?

No I did not.

Without seeing a screenshot of what you see, it is impossible to figure out what you have wrong.

NOT FOR USER MISTAKES OR TROUBLESHOOTING HELP.

I had reminded you this two years ago with your previous false report.

I am 99.9999% sure you've attempted to hack in the 'mons rather than present your legitimately obtained as examples of the legality checker not working.

There are multiple failing features present in your screenshot that are indicative of cheating:

1. Having maxed EVs at a very low level. While not impossible (due to Daycare resetting back to the current level's 0% threshold), I highly doubt you painstakingly did this.

2. Having maxed IVs. I really doubt you abused the RNG to get a perfect IV spread.

3. Catch Rate of 0, indicative that you traded it to Gen2 and removed the item, and traded it back. Highly unlikely you did that, and instead just forgot to manually enter the untouched catch rate when generating it.

4. Finally, the fatal flaw: In-game trades do not store the actual Trainer name in the OT field. They use a special 1-character string to tell the game to display the localized variant of "TRAINER". PKHeX is rightfully flagging that the OT name has been altered, because it does not match what the OT name should be.

Hi,

For some reason my Rayquaza I caught during the shiny event in Scarlet last year is still marked as illegal.

Initially I thought it was just because the event database hadn't been updated yet, but noticed now almost a year later its still appearing as illegal.

Adding one into the box from the encounter database is marked as legal, so not sure whats causing it.

 

This mon is 100% legally caught and unmodified. Leveling, hypertraining and EVs were done in-game.

Doubtful; the RNG seed does not yield the PID/IV that you have on the file, indicating that something was modified (such as the Encryption Constant).

One of the old pkhex, when legends Z-A released some of my shiny ultrabeast appeared as illegal and modified in pkhex, but in the next build it fixed, if they use a old pkhex build they can compare if still appears as legal or no

That's really odd, I am certain I've never modified it.

Anyway,

Thanks for having a look!

This Charizard is illegal.

The Kanto starter you're given from that side mission comes with the met location ID 30027, yours has 103.

As mentioned ID is wrong. Also IV boosting incorrectly can cause hacks, this thread isn’t for helping you with hacks.

Meltan and Hoopa-Unbood are flagged illegal in my save.
I didn't touch them at all, except for Hoopa I changed his form in-game with its own item and that's all.

Meltan: fixed shortly after the previous release: Update EncounterStatic9a.cs · kwsch/PKHeX@61a13fd

Hoopa: fixed just now, thanks for the reminder: Misc tweaks for Hoopa-1 plus flags · kwsch/PKHeX@85abb48

As I already told, is a legitimate charmender. I maxed iv and ev (in both correct way) to 20 pokemon in za, only this charizard give me unlegit. Is the charmender from the quest, is legit in theory.  I only maxed him ev and iv. How can i fix him, i mean make him legit like he deserve ? Thanks

Read the first post of this thread. This thread is not for help when you've made edits to a Pokemon with the program, it is for legitimate things being flagged incorrectly. Z-A has RNG correlations and you cannot modify IVs without invalidating the PID IV+ correlation.
