FOX02101993 Posted August 23, 2020 Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) Hey there everyone, so I got this PCNYb shiny Mew off someone from HeartGold (Met Location: Poké Transfer), it was tradable through Link Trade on a Gen VII game (USUM). But, PKHeX is flagging it as illegal. Is there anyone who can verify this Pokémon for me? Any help would be appreciated. Like I said it was tradeable through Link Trade. And if it is legal I’d like to contribute it. Edited August 23, 2020 by FOX02101993
SkyLink98 Posted August 23, 2020 Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) It can be legimately obtained only during the PCNY event in 2002 on the actual cartdriges of Gold, Silver and Crystal: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Gotta_Catch_'Em_All_event_Pokémon#Shiny_Mew Pokémon from the actual Gen2 cartdriges cannot be legally transfered up to SM/USUM/SWSH. Also, the Bank-Transporter refuses to transfer this Mew if injected into one of the Virtual Console Gen2 games for 3DS, so it is 100% injekted with PKHeX (or similar) into a SM/USUM save file. Also, the GameBoy logo is missing in the info of the Pokémon, so the met location is generated wrong. Absolutely illegal. Edited August 23, 2020 by SkyLink24 1
FOX02101993 Posted August 23, 2020 Author Posted August 23, 2020 Thank you SkyLink24, I thought as much. I was just thrown off because it was able to be traded.
