the OS version is not the problem, it is the Serial code/model of the Switch.

Only if your Switch is of a certain serial (has to be older). You can check this guide on whether your Switch is compatible: https://nh-server.github.io/switch-guide/ If you're going to hack it, use at your own risk.

no public method is known.

I'm interested to find out if any iOS users received the Magearna (assuming they didn't complete their dex in the first few hours of launch). If not, we know what's the issue. Also, it's interesting how you're an iOS user but able to see the Unown Challenge XD

HOME events are not handled by PKHeX yet.

yup request a ticket from support. If other readers didn't know this was an issue, here's a barrage of reports we had so far:

You'll need a game that supports it in order to dump it.. Also, the lv. 10 and lv. 50 variants of this has been pretty well documented, at least by me. No idea what is the real trigger for this, or whether is it just a glitch, or perhaps device dependent. Waiting on official results. Context: I completed my nat dex on launch day, don't have it. So did Joe Merrick/Serebii webmaster, and he doesn't have it. He later went on to complete all the alternative forms in his HOME, and it didn't give him anything either. Do note both him and I are on iOS versions. I'm curious if any of these reports came from an iOS device. (also, we both can't see the Unown challenge) Anyhow, here's part of what I recorded for Magearna

Do you have the file or screenshot from before it was sent, and a file or screenshot from after it was sent? If so, put them in a spoiler and upload them.

Well, your example was assigning a tracker to a blank tracker Zekrom, hence my passage. If I were to advise you, blank out all the trackers of the clones, then import them into B, to give them all unique trackers, then trade em away to your friends. (if you clone the mon, the tracker is no longer unique. Hence the step below to give them all unique trackers) To go back to my previous passage, B's HOME is expendable. Also as I said, HOME is able to gain access to other saves of profiles on the same console. So going back to my example, inject the save into B, then deposit into B's HOME, then use B's HOME to withdraw into A's PC.

@djsquiggy I should have mentioned that B is expendable. So as long as it's not a console ban (not piracy so unlikely), your console will stay safe. While I do not work for GF, I would imagine they won't ban people for receiving mons with hacked trackers or lack of tracker. So many people could be innocent parties receiving stuff by trade, they can't just up and ban all of them. I mean, they have bad hack checks. If they wanted to ban people, then they should have done that in the previous eras, all the people with impossible shiny Hoopas or all mega teams.. Even if they do decide to ban the one who gave the Zekrom a tracker (tho the person who received it may be an unwitting party), ultimately it'll be the B profile who imported it. Thus your A/main profile is safe. I didn't give a long chain of steps just for fun, though I admit I might have skipped a few pages along the way. This explanation should cover most to all bases you were concerned with. But whatever, ultimately do at your own risk.

or maybe you received a hacked one through trade? If you're that worried, create a new profile, link a different Nintendo account to it. Let's call this profile B. Now, restore your save into B. Use B's HOME (free) and deposit the Zekrom into B's HOME. It should get a tracker this way. HOME let's you gain access to saves of other profiles. Let's call your main profile A. Using B's HOME, access A's save, the now shift Zekrom into A's PC. I didn't pay for Nintendo Online for my other profiles, but they all can use the free HOME just fine..

I've got a female fashion that has everything unlocked

Important concise information, thank you as usual! :3 I'll tag this post if anyone asks about it.

Once again, do not unncessarily multipost. You have been warned. This mon hasn't been transferred via HOME. I suggest you edit one that has been. We have files on our forums, trying download one from the downloads section, then proceeding to edit that copy. Also, your screenshot didn't include the header for PKHeX. I don't know what version you're using, but I'll give you this advice: download the latest copy.

@baconCac don't multipost. Isn't the 3DS region for Gen 7 files right here? provide us the file, what's wrong with it?

Either that or use a PK8 of a transferred mon. You won't need a mon that already has the move. You just need to have it set to the correct origin game, then it can have the move.

They cannot have moves from previous generations if they can't learn it in this gen. If they have moves from prev gen when they were caught in this generation, they would be illegal. Only way they can prev generation move, is if they were caught in previous generation.

No one really knows. It appears that sending a mon into HOME with 0 as tracker will get a tracker written to it, but who knows what they're tracking. Are they keeping track all HOME imports, to ban illegal ones? Are they deleting mons with the same tracking number? Is it used to prevent people from cheesing the challenges by depositing the same mon again and again? Does any non HOME-staff really know?

could be more than that. For starters, import the MyStatus block from a female save, and import a female fashion block, and see if it works.

oh so it hasn't been transferred yet? If you traded it to OR, that descriptions makes sense.

That was Gen V. You're asking about Gen VII. You could edit mons (illegally) to hold it, but it doesn't mean it goes through online trades. As much as their online hack checks suck, they do have a white list on what items are allowed, and it doesn't appear key items are one of them.

does it say Link Trade when it was legitimately transferred from HOME and not placed into a different save?

I'm assuming it can't be traded, cause impossible held item.
