How to give ribbons to Legendary Pokémon using Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire

[C87H176]

We can use Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire to give Winning Ribbons and Victory Ribbons to Legendary Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, and Pokémon over Level 50, but when I checked with PKHeX out of curiosity, it showed “illegal.” This method of awarding ribbons using Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire might not be very well known, but I was curious if PKHeX takes this into account, so I decided to ask.

 If it isn’t taken into account, I’d like to see some kind of action taken.

Steps

1. Launch Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire and select “Go to Adventure.”

2. Win the 56 battles  at the Battle Tower where ribbons are awarded.

3. After the automatic report is generated, select “Go to Pokémon Box” and swap out the Pokémon you want to give the ribbon to.

This is my first post, and I’m using a translation tool.

This is so insanely cool, thank you for sharing. I mentioned your post in the Discord for Project Pokemon, hopefully they can look into this soon.

Thank you for sharing this post on Discord.

By using this method, we can give ribbons to up to three Pokémon at once—not just those that normally can’t receive them.
I didn’t discover this myself, but I’d be happy if this post helps everyone who reads it.

(It might be difficult, but I’d love it if the developers would consider the legitimacy of awarding Winning Ribbon and Victory Ribbon to Legendary Pokémon and the like.)
