LEGALITY ANALYSIS BUG

Alright, I RNG'd a 30/30/30/30/30/30 shiny Japanese Ditto: http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=724896 . I nicknamed it with it's original name and put a English "0" at the end to identify that it is a 30/30/30/30/30/30 Ditto.

I ID SID RNG abused off a seed where I caught this Ditto to test the seed: http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=724355 .

So, I RNG'd everything correctly using OD's RNG Reporter on a Pokemon White Japanese cart. If you look at the shiny Ditto, the legality analysis says: This Pokémon is not nicknamed but its name doesn't match the species name for its OT's language. Obviously, what I did was I put Ditto's Japanese name then a 0 (you can put English characters in Japanese games, including numbers (obviously)). For some reason, it thinks I did not nickname it.

Now, if you look at the 2nd link (the non shiny Ditto with the same seed I used and same retail cart) you'll see it doesn't show that even though I have the 0. It's because I messed up the first character in the nickname because the real one looks very similar. This made legality analysis recognize that I did indeed nickname it and found no problem with the 0 after it.

Here is the same exact shiny Ditto with 2 different nicknames in screenshot form (1 with the false first character and 1 with the correct one):

Correct spelling of Ditto in Japanese then 0: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54303432/1.png

Incorrect spelling of Ditto in Japanese then 0 (first character is different but looks very similar): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54303432/2.png

All in all, legality analysis thinks name's of the Pokemon are hacked if the NICKNAME of the Pokemon is it's ACTUAL name + a non Japanese character in Japanese games.

Update:

Just did a hex-flawless (same retail cart, etc) and it seems my hypothesis is wrong. It's just some coding error xfr figured out: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54303432/xfr.png
