SWSH - PID Mismatch can not find by mysefl

[simsgaga3]

Good morning all, 

I am trying to get 5 IVs galar form for the three Legendary birds, but you all know about the PID Mismatch for overworld encounters.

I tried to learn how to solve it by myself but I only lost houres of my time, can someone bring light to what's wrong with what I am doing ? 

 

So I followed what it is said here : 

- I choosed "Searching for particular IVs" > "If using Gen 8 OW PID Genner"

- I generated lines of possibles combinaisons with 5 IVS I like

- When I copy PID, EC, IVs, HT, and WT to the galar Legendary birds it is still considered as not ligit.

 

What dit I miss ? 

 

Have a good day.

I'm assuming what I underlined. Galar legendary birds encounter come with 3 guaranteed IVs.

Or perhaps you made it 5 (which you're not supposed to)

I made this legal Moltres within 1 minute XD


If there are specific IVs you want to be 31, have them be in the left side.

Remember, what is desired by you (left side) isn't necessary the  game enforced details for the encounter.

So it is impossible to have a legit 5 IVs galar legendary bird ?

So is it impossible to search for a IV spread yourself using the above referenced tool ?

Enter in your desired IV criteria on the left.

[theSLAYER]

Guaranteed IVs enforced by the encounter isn't the same as desired IVs you end up rolling for.

Imagine you had to roll 6 die, but there's a rule that converts 3 die to the number six.
You could still technically roll sixes on all of them.

It's just that you're forced have 3 sixes if let's say, your roll gave you all ones.
If that scenario happened, you'll end up with 3 ones and 3 sixes.

That's just what it means.

So you can have a 5IV Moltres, but you can't change the rule from guaranteed 3 to guaranteed 5.

Once again, took me less than a minute to get a legal one.

Ok thanks, I succeded making the 3 galar birds, I have others questions  :

- For wild encounter (non legendary pokemons) in SWSH, what parameters should I set in Guaranted IVs to have a 5 IVs legit combinaison ?

- Can I use the same methode to get a 5 IVs legit Mesprit & Cresselia in BDSP ?

Depends on the encounter. Read up on the encounter. Usually either 0 or 3.

Select the roaming8b option before searching
