How many underleveled events are there anyway? It's annoying to make exceptions for those.

You're right, I fixed both problems.

It uses CET/CEST but it would probably make sense to use PST/PDT with two thirds of users from the US and 20% of them from California.

Damn, it has been wrong for ages but nobody ever reported it. Thanks.

This is not the problem. Pokécheck is complaining because you are missing the last terminator \FFFF which to my knowledge is present in all gen 5 nicknames at the end of the field. If you change it to Boldore\xFFFF\x6C00\x6100\xFFFF it should be fine, like this: http://pokecheck.kraftpaper.org/?pk=6213

cH053n's thrad on terminator sequences is probably a good start.

There's nothing really wrong with this pokémon, bar its secret ID and wrong trash bytes. Try to remove the gen3 moves and see it it works. I'd like to know why this gets rejected...

Can you link to the faulty pokémon, Linoone? I suppose the problem is not the dream ability but the fact that your pokemon is lacking the HasDWAbility flag. In the stats report does it say Ability: Drizzle (DW) or just Ability: Dizzle? If it's the latter your pokémon is hacked.

Please let there be no more egg events, they are nightmares to check

I'm surprised about your egg axew. Is it normal it has a trash byte and nickname or did you made it so because the legality checker doesn't accept eggs?

I meant was it obtained by mystery gift or by a wireless distribution cartrige? I suppose it must have been wireless in theaters, wasn't it? In any case unlike gen4 (all \FF terminators) it seems gen5 events have a normal double terminator.

Damn those events... But is this a nifi or wifi event? I didn't expect those trash bytes...

I will fix this egg event. Was there any other egg event before?

Here you go, however dream world gible is not released so your opponent will know your team is hacked.

Fixed

- Normally those alternate forms with special moves/abilities like shaymin, giratina, rotom cannot be deposited on the GTS so they aren't supported yet. I will try to see if I can add exceptions for them. - Obviously and DW exclusive moves are not recognized properly. I consider those cases fall under the "Event only" category but I'll see what I can do... - I don't know which characters are possible to input on japanese games hence I can't really test if they're valid. This does not mean the pokemon is not legal. Same (but worst) problem for corean games; I have no idea what the input keyboard is. - Gen 3 has a complex set of trash bytes depending on the slot and region used to pal park them. The correct way to check those is to use the gen4 legality checker, ignoring the last 2 bytes. I'm not sure I want to invest too much effort into supporting them Your concept of distribution is interesting and although it contradicts the spirit of Pokécheck, your efforts to make fully legal stuff are commendable.

Thanks. Also I checked the roamers and they do have a simple terminator. They should be recognized properly now. Landorus is stationary hence has a double terminator in OT.

I just fixed this.

Thank you for your comments, cH053n. Your post on OT escape sequence is interesting, I found out the same results as you for the most part and if you want to complete your table, I have found out that: - Fateful encounter is basically the same case as Event (except for Shaymin in Pt) and terminator for those is all \FFFF - NPC Pokémon Gift like those first badge monkeys is the same as starters and NPC trade, with simple escape sequence. ALL name fields have AT LEAST one terminator \FFFF to mark the end of the name; I call this simple terminator. Some others, most importantly wild pokémon, have double terminator, i.e. \FFFF at the end of the name AND at the end of the field. Even if you remove what you call the "terminator sequence", you will still have the mandatory first terminator. It doesn't appear in PokeGen but that's because PokeGen is smart and will always include it (otherwise it can corrupt your save file). Pokécheck should handle most cases correctly but I think it is missing roaming and maybe some NPC cases. There is no check for level and items, I'll add it or part of it (like Codr said I don't really want to keep a database of stuff updated). Also I don't have a table of released dream world pokémon and genders, if you know where to find one I should add a dream world legality check. Currently all gen5 dream world are flagged as hacked. As for your Pikachu it was a bug that caused level up moves exclusive to the preevo to not be recognized properly. The check is not very smart and all invalid moves are listed as Hacked, even level up moves from higher levels.

Fix'd

randomspot555 edit: Because it apparently hasn't been clear enough, this thread is strictly for reporting ERRORS in PokeCheck's Legality Analyses. Anything beyond that is off-topic and may get you an an infraction. evandixon edit: Because this thread is for reporting errors, this is also NOT the thread to ask why your Pokémon aren't legal. Be sure to search for legality guides before asking somewhere besides this thread. Until the release of an update to Sabresite's legal.exe, I have added a basic legality checker for generation 5 to Pokécheck. This tool is meant to detect edited or cloned pokémon. In accordance with ProjectPokemon's policy on hacking, you are reminded that edited Pokémon are not allowed on Black & White Random Wifi matchup and in all nintendo or affiliated events. As such, any request to make a Pokémon legal for Wifi or any official or non official tournament will be ignored and can get you banned by the moderation team. To try it you can either deposit the pokémon to test on the Pokécheck GTS or have an account and import the .pkm file. For a legit pokémon you should expect somthing similar to this: Please report any pokémon either incorrectly reported as hacked or new ideas to detect currently undetected hacks. Always include a link to the incriminated pokémon if you can. You don't have to make it public.

A small correction about the OT name of generation 5 pokemon. If the pokemon is obtained from the daycare as an egg, it will have a simple terminator (\xFFFF after name, but \x0000 afterwards). If the pokemon is captured from the wild (with some exceptions, like those first badge monkeys) it will both have a normal terminator after the name AND last two bytes will be \xFFFF.

I don't have what it takes to test it on a real system but from what I saw in the gen5 charset the correct Table.tbl file you want is this. I may have missed some errors however so make sure to test it on everything you can. I also didn't fix the wrong translations of characters that can't be used in names. Table.tbl.zip

It's not totally correct, for instance this won't work for japanese special symbols (which are different from the half-width english ones, and should be translated differently), also you don't translate ♂ (replaced with B?) and ♀ (replaced with japanese full-width ♀) correctly. I included a lot of details about special characters in the Wiki page on B/W data structure to help you fix the problems. Also, as a side note, I think this is exactly why PokéTransfer is region-locked. Character translation is different in games with short (i.e. japanese) and long names.

I updated the wiki page to include information on encoding and trash bytes.
