  1. Just for the record, I got Mystry Mew across, so SID 00000 isn't an issue.

    The Mew above didn't get through due to "Rock Climb" (I believed it was "poke-transferred using Pokecheck, hence the move remained)

    It's a "false" false positive

    Yes, I did use Pokecheck because I lost my completed White game so I couldn't use Poke Transfer. I can't believe I missed that, though. I definitely have to remember to take a look at the moveset if this happens again.

    EDIT: Yep, worked with a valid moveset. Pokegen or Pokecheck messed up the OT though when I was editing the moveset, giving it an invalid trash byte on the end that I didn't notice until the supposedly-fixed Mew still wouldn't go through. Once that issue was resolved, it worked just fine.

  2. On this forum and others, there have been others pleading for help, when the Pokemon they believe to be Legit did not pass through.

    Here's my findings (which is also on first post now):

    Some Gen III Pal Parked Pokemon1

    Note 1:

    The pattern I recognized is corrupted OT names (from all the reported entries on Pokecheck).

    I've previously read that Pokegen had this bug which I don't remember it being fixed,

    so the corrupted names might an extraction issue when using Pokegen; might not have been present.

    Once I fixed the trash bytes for OT and Nickname (zerorized) this issue disappears.

    Seeking help to discover the root of the problem.

    (remember, this is not meant to circumvent checks)

    I received a Toys R Us Mystery Mew (a 3rd Gen event Pokemon) through a trade a very long while back that wouldn't transfer to the bank. I'm not sure if it's because it was hacked or because it's a really old event Pokemon, but when I examined it in Pokegen I saw that its SID was set to 00000, which is probably the cause. I think other people have had issues with the Mystery Mew as well, and I've seen a lot of identical ones on Pokecheck with the same SID of 00000.

    So far that's the only Pokemon I've had trouble transferring.

    Never mind. See next post.

  3. whats the best card to run this on a DS lite? iyo

    Edge

    I've actually switched from my EDGE to a different flashcart. They were too slow with firmware updates. I ended up getting a SuperCard DSTWO, but it's pretty expensive as far as flashcarts go. If you're looking for something cheaper, I'd recommend an AceKard 2 or 2i. As far as I've heard, it's one of the best.

    As for playing Black/White on an EDGE, it works as long as you're okay with major audio glitches. Like...all the music is off-key and the sound-effects sound really odd... I noticed Super Scribblenauts has the same issue.

  4. just a heads-up, mention of roms on this forum will get you an instant 1-4 week ban.

    Sounds like he was asking how to dump a legit cartridge to create a ROM (which is AFAIK not against the rules), rather than asking where to find an illegal ROM (which, yeah, would be grounds for a ban).

    EDIT: Dang, random beat me to it. xD

    Okay, I gotta ask. What names are being used for the three leaders of the first gym? Is it Kone, Koon. or Corn? Podda, Poddo, or Pod? Dento or Dent? AFAIK it's supposed to be Corn, Pod, and Dent, but I've seen all of those variations in the translation files on Github so I'm not sure which names are correct...

  5. Actually, it can. The Arceus from the 12th movie event knows Judgement, Roar of Time, Spacial Rend, and Shadow Force.

    That said, Arceus seems a bit iffy. That Arceus is supposedly from a Japanese event, but its name is in English (and you can't rename Pokemon from that event).

    The rest seem fine to me. They all (even Arceus) pass Sabresite's Legality Checker.

  6. 1. For pokemon you Pal-Parked yourself, Met in Place would be 3002 (Faraway Place), Hometown would be whatever Region/Game you Pal-Parked it from (i.e. Hoenn (Ruby) for Pokemon Ruby), and all the hex values would be 00, except for 46h, which would be 37.

    2. For traded pokemon, it would depend on what game you're trading from. For another HGSS game, everything would be the same as in #1. For Platinum, Met in Place would be 55 (Pal Park). For Diamond/Pearl, Met in Place would be 55 (Pal Park) and 46h would be 00 like the rest of the hex values.

    I'm fairly certain that the Trainer Name, ID, and SID will remain unchanged from whatever trainer originally caught it in GenIII.

  7. Try here.

    The name (also the OT) shows up as a few strange characters in Pokesav, but it's Japanese in-game. I checked it with legal.exe and it passed. At first I wasn't sure, since it said "Unknown GBA Type," but apparently that's what it's supposed to be according to this post.

  8. So? If you enter the correct hex values as per the article here and make a legal pokemon then there is'nt much need for a legality checker.
    Legality checkers can also be used to check PIDs. There have been a number of times when I've hacked a pokemon with what I thought was a valid PID, only to find out that it failed the test. I won't be entering any tournaments or anything, but I still want my pokemon to be considered valid.
