Pikachus

I have created a couple of Pikachu that PKHeX is saying is legal but when I try and trade them in SwSh it says there's something wrong with both of them. All I've done is made them 6IV, added EVs, chnaged the moves and changed the stat nature on one. I was thinking about the moves but a couple of them are taught from the move tutor in SUMO and a couple via TR/TMs in SwSh. I have attached both Pikachu, can anyone help me identify what the issue is please?

It appears that the issue is with the move Fake Out. It only learns that move via breeding, but you can't breed a Cap chu, so.. it will never have access to the move.

the cap chus should not have access to breeding moves, and you can't transfer the egg move to it at a breeder.
("They don't seem to like playing together at all...")
[edit: Which makes sense, its egg group is undiscovered.]

Hmm, could be, I tried testing changing some of the moves manually in game and using the egg move transfer method thriugh the daycare I was acrually able to transfer Fake Out to both of them.

I've tested bringing these mons into online trades, and a simpler method, is to just attempt to share a raid online, with the only mon being in your party.

This is a good idea, might run some more tests and use that to check it.

You're right, I've been able to transfer Fake Out to it.
(I managed to transfer the move without needing an egg)

So while it seems legally possible, it being blocked may be an oversight for the trading whitelist on the server.
Nothing we can do but remove the move..
