The notion of a legitimacy marker doesn't make sense. Legal pokemon are data, indistinguishable from legitimately-obtained counterparts.

An NPC in the archaeology lab asks to see a Genesect. I haven't checked this, but maybe seeing mention of the Pokemon is enough to populate it in GTS?

This is the team I play most often, and it's served me well, but I know it can be better. Sometimes I give a description, but usually it should be pretty obvious what's going with any given poke. Ferrothorn @ Leftovers (Female) Ability: Iron Barbs EVs: 252 HP, 30 Def, 216 SpDef Sassy Nature Moves: Curse, Gyro Ball, Leech Seed, Stealth Rock This thing has been great for SR setup, but even better for a surprise sweep. One Curse and its defense is so massive and its speed is so low that it can topple most pokes in one hit while taking whatever damage they deal. Conkeldurr @ Leftovers (Female) Ability: Guts EVs: 120 HP, 252 Atk, 136 Def Adamant Nature Moves: Mach Punch, Bulk Up, Drain Punch, Stone Edge This one takes a licking and keeps on dealing massive damage. It's the normal set but with Stone Edge instead of Payback, which has served me super well. Hydreigon @ Choice Scarf (Male) Ability: Levitate EVs: 4 HP, 252 SpAtk, 252 Spd Modest Nature Moves: Dark Pulse, Draco Meteor, Flamethrower, Surf A coverage beast and a speed demon with that scarf. People think they'll outspeed, and then Hydreigon just puts them in the ground. Azumarill @ Choice Band (Female) Ability: Huge Power EVs: 252 HP, 252 Atk, 4 Spd Adamant Nature Moves: Ice Punch, Superpower, Waterfall, Aqua Jet My only priority move user. That's worth noting. Also a good counter to a lot of pokes which would otherwise shred my team. Blaziken @ Focus Sash (Male) Ability: Speed Boost EVs: 4 HP, 252 Atk, 252 Spd Adamant Nature Moves: Blaze Kick, Hi Jump Kick, Swords Dance, Shadow Claw If this guy sets up, it's mostly good game. I took out Flare Blitz for Blaze Kick since a lot of the time I'm going in, setting up an SD, and then trying to live to sweep as long as possible. Cresselia @ Leftovers (Female) Ability: Levitiate EVs: 252 HP, 56 Def, 200 SpDef Hardy Nature Moves: Ice Beam, Reflect, Psychic, Moonlight. -- So yeah, any help would be appreciated.

That said, I think it might be true that once you use Game Sync with a particular game save and a particular console, you cannot use it again with the same game save on a different DS. I'm not 100% sure on this, but it does give you that message about how 'Game Sync treats your DS and game card as a pair' or whatever. Everyone should wait for someone to verify this before taking it as truth, though. It would be odd for Nintendo to cripple future use with other devices.

Another question: What's wrong with my Cresselia? I'm assuming it's something in the Met data, but I don't quite understand how that works based on the guides I've read...

Yep, that was it! Thanks for the help.

Hey guys, I'm trying to put together a swift swim team, and I seem to just be screwing this up pretty badly. The problem is somewhere in the selected pokes (Haxorus, top left Politoed, Kingdra, Kabutops, Ludicolo). Any help would be wonderful. Note: made in Pokegen.

So one piece of advice I have is to give something else on your team the move Sandstorm, or switch in something with Sandstream. The only threats on your team rely on their being a sandstorm going, and if your opponent's lead has Mold Breaker (lead Haxorus is going to start being more and more common), you are essentially SOL.

This is on topic with what I'm struggling with, so hopefully it's appropriate to post here... Anyway, I keep trying to generate pokemon and they keep failing, and for the life of me I can't figure out why. I suspect the Blaziken is a no go because it uses a DW ability, but I set it to have been traded from Japan, which seems possible, though I guess Blaziken might be disallowed since through evolution it should have lost DW (is that right? If not, please tell me where I'm wrong). As for the others, it seems like all of them should be wifi-legal if they're set so that they were hatched, right? My sav file with some failed pokemon is attached, but it's the first four in box 1 that I'm concerned about. Also, I would assume that getting questions answered about these will help me with a lot of other issues. Thanks in advance for the help!

Hey everybody. I'm trying to Pokegen a proper team to use on the WiFi servers, and I figured this was the best place to learn how to do that and do it well, so here I am. Game name: Michael FC: 4555 9688 5690 Please be patient with me if I ask dumb questions!
