Poke J

Resetting the flags does not effect if the Pokémon can be shiny or not, you’re just having bad luck. Remember the odds of finding a shiny does not mean you’re guaranteed to find a shiny within that number if attempts.

Gens 5-7 keep their original met date when sent to HOME. This is evident with the catch calendar on the mobile GOME app.

Since you are playing on an emulator (assuming Emerald) you are essentially playing the game with a dead battery. The RNG will start on the same seed every time you start up the game and will advance through the same pattern every time. The reverse engineer thing to see if it was the right date only matters for Pokémon revived from a distribution cart.

You’re trying to make a gen 3 Pokémon and not follow the rules for how Gen 3 Pokémon are generated and on top of that you’re trying to make a Pokémon that has a quirk to its generation. You should just take one from the event database I linked you to earlier. Anyway here is the link for all possible shiny bonus disc Jirachi. Just use one of them and don’t edit it in anyway.

Which one? Since 2009 there have been a lot of Jirachi events. The event gallery has been updated over the years and that info can be found there. https://projectpokemon.org/home/files/category/2-event-gallery/

I’m currently not testing since I’ve found the information that I needed for my application and interests. Maybe some day down the road I’ll look at this again.

You probably want this

Just follow this for each generation and you’ll be fine. (I will not list Gen 8 since I’ve never used PKHeX for Gen 8 ) Gen 1: -Just change the species. Gen 2 to Gen 5; -Change the species -Optional change the friendship value to 70. Gen 6 to Gen 7: -Change the species. -Add a non original OT -Change to the non original OT (click beside the text box so it’ll turn green) -If Pokémon is traded back to its first original trainer (same ID, SID, OT, gender) set it to original OF (click beside the text box so it’ll turn green), but still make sure there is still a name for the last non OT. -Optional change the friendship value to 70. -Optional set all of the Pokémon’s Amie stuff to 0. -Optional change the memory. I listed some things as optional since they change and update during normal game play. So even though they are effected during the trading process they will neutrally change as you play.

Just going off what you’ve explained I’d say with high certainty that’s what’s happening. So nothing to worry about your game sounds like it’s running fine.

That’s because you’ve gained hearts in PokeAmie with that Pokémon so it loves you more now and has nothing to do with nature. The more hearts you get to with that Pokémon in PokeAmie the more beneficial battle effects you’ll get like waking up early or dodging moves that are 100% accurate. Those effects only work in game and not online.

That’s the the legality error box informing you what changes you need to make the Pokémon legal. You don’t even have to see that box unless you click on the error icon to see the issue. So to address your concern, no the box will not auto legal Pokémon since that isn’t a built function of PKHeX and probably will never be a built function.

To expand on this question further the games themselves do not check for illegal moves since Pokémon can be brought from past games where they could learn a move that they can’t learn anymore or it’s an event Pokémon with a special move. To have an in game hack check would not be practical and is reserved for checking Pokémon being used in online play or online trading, but the server carries out those checks.

I did control + click on the error icon and it instantly changed and it came up legal for me on both versions. PKHeX sometimes does that when it initially checks the Pokémon, but then corrects itself when you click on the error. I don't know how you got the that legality error in your first post because I can't get that result.

I've tested with the same version as you, as well as, the newest version of PKHeX and I don't get that error. It at first says its illegal, but clicking on the error icon changes is to the legal check mark.

Can upload the file? It’s hard to tell you what’s wrong from a screen shot.
