Max Lair - Invalid: PID + Correlation

[Heliodor]

Hi, so I've been shiny hunting for the past year and recently decided to give Max Lair a try, unfortunately I found that I had already caught Tapu Lele so I cannot hunt it, launched pkHex and I found both the -Gen 8 OW Shiny PID Genner- (Even tho it doesn't seem to have data for Max Lair so it doesn't seem to be useful) and the -Overworld8/Max Raid IV Searcher plugin- that keeps getting me the error in the title when I do "Send to viewer"

I'm trying to understand why it doesn't seem correct, because I haven't touched that Tapu Lele at all, it's a valid catch from 2022, it's not made from scratch; and for information I'm trying to keep both TID&SID, I don't really care about IVs or anything else, anyway thanks if anyone answers

(I've also looked at other user questions in the forum but found stuff that was either too old or not the right problem)

I’ll look into that later, provided I wasn’t fully absorbed by the DLC

[Heliodor]

Haha yeah I might do the same with the DLC, there is no rush with this
Just in case I'll give you both the Tapu file (you'll see it's legal) and the settings I use to make sure it's not my error (The only thing that changes is that I tried many many random seeds)

Thank you!

If you are only searching for a shiny (and no other specific criteria), why not use PKHeX's encounter database? It generates max lair shinies without issue.

I might not know how to properly use it but from what I tried already the Encounter Database has no shiny results

There are no guaranteed shiny results. Use the criteria to specify what you want your result to be.
