I selected everything that I believed I needed (EVs, IVs, moves, Lv, Exp, etc.). I did all of this before hitting the Generate button and saving the file as .XML, so that I could manually input the code into my ARDS.
In fact, the second time I tried it, with the same Poke, it gave me an illegal Lv 100 Growlithe with Shadow Punch (lol). Still not sure what I did wrong.
