Lati@s were given out as event pokémon during Gen III, so they can have Fateful Encounter in the GBA games, but I don't think this is kept when they're Pal Parked over.

I'm not really sure, I don't have experience with Action Replay codes like that. Try this one: http://cnash.uuuq.com/miltank.xml It should appear in party slot 6, so keep it free. I've attached the PKM file, so you can try other methods of getting it onto your game. Since you have an AR, you can export your save file and add Miltank into your party with Pokésav.

Ok. I've never done it as an AR code before (as I don't have an AR myself) so if there's anything wrong with this, let me know. You'll need to change the filename extension to XML in order to import it to the ARDS, as this forum won't let me attach XML files. Also, these codes are for HG/SS, not D/P/P; you didn't specify which game you wanted it for.

All done. Do you want me to trade it to you or give you the AR code for it?

How so? As long as there aren't any obvious mistakes, like a hatched legendary, a team of hatched pokémon would look perfectly legitimate to most people. A lot of people breed extensively to get good IVs and natures, especially for pokémon that are difficult to catch or that you only have one of. Only someone who took the time to look at it with Pokésav would see that the PID doesn't match up. A team of all shinies, or all 31 IVs, is a lot fishier IMO, as it would require a huge amount of grinding to do.

Ok, it's all made for you. Let me know when you're around and I'll trade it over.

As Mewtwo is caught in a cave, set 85h to 05. Usually I don't touch 85h, because most of my hacks are set as hatched rather than caught (it makes it easier to pass Legal) and the code for a hatched pokémon is 00.

Good, I'm glad you got it working.

Don't launch Sendpkm until right before you say "Yes" to connecting to Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. This often helps make the process go smoothly.

PID-IV Generator. You can download it from the front page of this site. Enter the IVs and the nature and it'll present you with a list of PIDs matching it. Pokésav will also do this; click the PID/IV button and hit Generate, and it'll give you a list of natures (and gender, ability and algorithm type) that match the IVs you've entered.

Red = female Blue = male Green = genderless If the colour changed after you altered its PID, you chose a PID that matches up to a different gender than what you started with. Pokésav doesn't judge legality, only Legal does that.

It won't mess anything up, the game is very accommodating of most superficial hacks like that, but it's very easy to spot that it's a fake - as you say, Mewtwo can't be legitimately lower than level 70. Yes, you can make Mewtwo have all 31 IVs if you want. You just have to make sure to generate a PID for it that matches its nature, IVs and ability. Note that some IV/Nature/Gender/Ability combinations simply don't exist, so you might not be able to get exactly what you want. Pokésav contains a PID generator, or you can use the PID/IV Checker program (download it from this site's main page). As for "Met at place" - to get this to read correctly for Mewtwo (AFAIK), set it to 3002 - Farawayplace and then change the hex value 46h to C7 and it'll read "Cerulean Cave", where it's normally encountered. And don't put anything in "Egg Hatched"; legendaries can't be eggs.

It's not for you to decide how much information to provide. When you're told in the forum rules that hack requests must follow a certain format, you follow that format. No exceptions. Basically, the more information you provide - even if most of it is "default" or blank - the easier it is for the hacker, as they don't have to then guess about what you might have wanted.

I've hit a brick wall; I don't know enough about what Legal looks for in Gender Check to know what to change. However, simply making your Gastrodon male allows it to pass Legal. Since it's a hatched pokémon, you don't need to worry about PIDs, just flip its gender. Gastrodon has no visible gender differences.

Changing the PID in Pokésav won't automatically change its IVs. You need to do that manually, or else the PID and IVs won't match and Legal will fail it.

Attach the PKM file to your message and I'll see what I can do.

You've barely specified any details - for example, EVs. Do you understand how EVs work? You can't just say "Maxed"; you have exactly 510 points to spread amongst the six stats, and you must specify where they go. Go take a look at Smogon's page for Dragonite and decide what you want your Dragonite to do for you. Also, while I usually don't mind working for free, it's considered courteous to offer something in return, like an event pokémon or legit shiny.

In my experience, it helps to start Sendpkm just before you say Yes to the Wi-fi connection message. Apparently, the longer the Sendpkm window is open before you do this, the more likely it is to fail. If that's still not doing the trick, check the IP address displayed by Sendpkm - is it an internal address, starting with 192, or the same as what you get from Whatismyip.com? If you're using a router, it should be an internal address.

Set "Met at" to 3002 (Farawayplace) and change the 46h field to an HG/SS location - see the hex values table. That will make it appear to have been caught on HG/SS - D/P's data sheet for the pokémon will read "Faraway place"; HG/SS's data sheet will display whatever location corresponds to the hex value. Make sure to give it a different OT, ID and SID.

EVs wouldn't have affected the PID, and as long as they don't total more than 510 they will be perfectly legal. It's changing natures that's messed it up - your original PIDs were tailored to the pokémon's original IVs and nature, so changing one or the other without regenerating a correct PID will flag the pokémon up as hacked. The easiest way of making your pokémon legal is to make it a hatched pokémon rather than a caught pokémon. Legal disregards the PID in this case and just passes it. However, I chose to do it the long way - mainly because it's good practice for me.

All done. Here's a rundown: Drake and Prime These two are GBA pokémon and just needed their trash bytes normalised. Anomaly This one had a mismatched IV/Nature issue. Changing its Sp. Atk IV to 23 allowed me to generate a valid PID for it; since it's not using Hidden Power I figured this was ok. Flare I've made Flare legal, but at the expense of drastically changing her IVs. If you're trying to make it shiny, you must generate a correct PID for it, you can't just tick the box. I can give it another go if you're unhappy with the IVs now, but none of them are lower than what they were. Thorne Another case of mismatched IV/Nature. Increasing Speed to 27 fixed it up. Sparkles And another shiny, requiring a major IV change to make it legal. Not as drastic as Flare, just a few points on each stat. Check them over yourself. If you're unhappy with the changes, let me know and I'll see if I can get IVs that are closer to your originals. For your information: I used the PID/IV Checker to generate IV/Nature combos for the shinies. It's very easy to use. If you're editing with Pokésav, you should really have a copy of that (and Trash Byte Normalizer) on hand. Anomaly.pkm Drake.pkm Prime.pkm Flare.pkm Thorne.pkm sparkles.pkm

PID/IV Checker can't find a legal PID for that combination of IVs and Nature. I ran some other natures past it - basically all the ones that increase Speed - and it couldn't find PIDs for those either. Well, except for Jolly, but there's only one valid PID for it and its Type doesn't match up, so it's still illegal. Your solution is to make it a Hatched pokémon. Just enter a location into "Egg Hatched" and it'll pass Legal with no problems.

It's a hatched pokémon, so PID doesn't matter in terms of it passing Legal. However, you're right, the PID doesn't match up to its IVs. I changed it into a caught pokémon and it failed Legal.
