@theSLAYER y'know what, it's fine. it's not a big deal to just grab it from the database. thanks for your responses and your time looking at my issue. sorry if i uploaded the wrong file.

also, idk what happened from earlier to now, but everything seems to be working fine. not sure what i'm doing different.

ok, i'm not sure what you're both saying, @Kaphotics and @theSLAYER. the ho-oh i was creating had 4 perfect IVs. every time i tried to say ability 1,it got mad at me. the dynamax level was maxed out. i'm not trying to fudge data, all i did was change the OT, and the moves. everything else, i literally got from looking at how official legendary pokemon are met in the max lair. i'm happy to admit when i'm wrong and when i need to learn more stuff, but i get the feeling you're both expecting that i don't know shit about anything and not really even looking at what i'm talking about.

i mentioned encryption constant because when i changed THAT, was when the legal mon i had from the database, became illegal. so that was my impression.

also, i have to say, i get that you guys don't think anyone that starts out doing this and isn't 5 star A+ at it right away shouldn't be making their own mon, but that's not gonna deter me from LEARNING how. i'm sorry that C# isn't my main language, as i'm a web developer. all i'm interested in knowing, is why even after i follow all directions, it only works when i get the mon from the database. i'm not shitting on your app, i think it's fishing amazing and thank you so much for doing it. i know how flipping hard this shit is. thanks for your replies

@theSLAYER sure, here it is

thanks for having a look

illegal ho-oh.pk8

@theSLAYER ok thanks, that makes sense on the Swablu, thanks for the help on that. as i mentioned, i had made a few legal mons, i guess i just messed it up for this one.

to be honest, i was trying to make a shiny kartana, and i had all the details right, i think? i wasn’t meeting it as an egg or anything. i had my sid and pid right, i had Xor set to 1, the level that Kartana is encountered at i know is 70, and in the Max Lair. i didn’t have ribbons or memories. met in sword. it was all right. i got it to work by inserting a kartana from the database. which definitely means i was doing something wrong. i wanna know what it was i was doing wrong, and why, with all the details that i had before (which the app considered illegal) the SAME, it only worked when i imported it from the database. i can provide screenshots of that, also, if needed

edit: i just tried to make a ho-oh and the same thing is happening. here's the screenshots:

edit: i went ahead and just grabbed a ho-oh from the database, and it works fine, but again, only thing that's different are the moves. i think it's the encryption constant that messes up my ho-oh?

edit: i swapped the met locations with swablu as you suggested, but still encountering the same issue. again, i think it's to do with not knowing how to reroll encryption constants...

i kind of got it to work...i just went to the PKM database and clicked on the mon closest to the one i wanted. then i just edited the important bits like my SID and TID and stats and stuff. i just don't get why that happens and what i was doing wrong

yeah, i made a couple and it went fine. then it just decided to just deny everything i tried.

i mean it has to be something i'm doing wrong...i'm gonna try to go to github and get the latest version, but in the meantime, does anyone know what i could be doing wrong? thank you!
