Looks like invalid pkrs values.

https://github.com/pret/pokeemerald/blob/5d7c438efcd341c777c866a7eb3f8401f8548dc5/src/pokemon.c#L6036-L6058

The byte at 0x44 has "01", which decomposes to "strain 0, days 1". Can't get strain 0, and when it's cured (days elapsed), it will never remember it had pkrs.

 

I simulated the numbers to generate a list of possible PKRS values:

https://github.com/pret/pokeemerald/blob/5d7c438efcd341c777c866a7eb3f8401f8548dc5/src/pokemon.c#L5940-L5978

var list = new List<int>();
for (int i = 0; i <= 255; i++)
{
	var val = i;
	if ((val & 0x7) == 0)
		continue;
	if ((val & 0xF0) != 0)
		val &= 7;
		
	val |= (val << 4);
	val &= 0xF3;
	val++;
	$"{i:000}: {val:X2}".Dump();
	list.Add(val);
}

list.OrderBy(z => z).Select(z => $"{z:X2}").Distinct().Dump();

And here is the list of initial values:

12 
23 
34 
41 
52 
63 
74 
92 
A3 
B4 
C1 
D2 
E3 
F4

Note how strain 0 and strain 8 are not generatable.

Did you hack in PKRS with a cheat?

Hello Kaphotics. Thanks for the feedback. Sorry for the late response, I had cheats disabled in the emulator.

Edit: It seems like according to Bulbapedia, having a Pokemon with a Pokerus of 0 is not legitimate. I guess I may have unknowingly cheated in the game.

Hey quick question, which mon is supposed to be infected with pkrus?

It's Combusken. But the all of the other Pokemon in my party and in the PC also got infected with it. So, you can also check using the other Pokemon.

Save the game in-game twice, then export your save, then send it to me here.

or

(options may differ due to emulator version, but it's effectively something like that)

Here's the save file. Thank you for the helpful instructions.

I assume you're using an emulator. Would that be VBA?

Yes. I am using VBALink 1.7 LAN edition.

are you sure you loaded the correct save into PKHeX?

Hello Pokemon Chief. Yes, I loaded the correct save. 

Hello, I got a Pokemon Ruby (gen 3) save file (.sa1) that had Pokemon with Pokerus that I got in-game without using PKHeX. But, when I opened my save file with PKHeX, the box for ( Infected) is left unchecked. I think it might be a bug.
