4th gen only abilities on unevolved Pokemon from 3rd gen games are not legal. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=2139574

http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=2110723 Used an Adamant Synchronizer, got this message in the LA. Minor, but still an error. EDIT: Talking to some people on IRC reminded me of some Great Marsh/Safari Zone errors from when the "Features & news" mentioned Safari Zone encounters were not fully supported. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1034688 Marill is both a Normal and Binocular Pokemon, LA is treating it as only occupying Normal slots. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1005230 http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=2114371 LA doesn't seem to recognze Platinum Binocular Pokemon at all, Kecleon was caught with a failed CC lead and Kangaskhan was with a Pressure lead. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1824366 Valid encounter, placing Blocks can shift encounter slots around for Block Pokemon.

Rock Smash encounter slots are off, this is a perfectly legal encounter. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=2056253

http://www.pokecheck.org/?pk=2031721 Snorlax appears on route 12 if you KO/Run from it at the entrance to Digletts Cave and beat the E4. EDIT: Manaphy from eggs that would be shiny on the game the eggs are recieved on have their PID+Nature changed, there is some info at the end of this post. This change happens when the Manaphy egg is hatched, so any un-hatched eggs with abnormal PID/IV combos are still hacked.

3rd and 4th gen Pokemon with an ID of 0 show up as "ID 0 is hacked." despite it being completely possible, I understand why this is but it's false and I feel should be changed to the 5th gen version "ID 0 is probably hacked." to prevent people from thinking it is not possible without hacking. Some examples (yes, I have a thing for gimmick IDs) http://www.pokecheck.org/?pk=1723439 http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1055698 http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1631753

My Union Cave Lapras is showing up as an "Unknown Encounter", I suspect this is because it was not caught on Friday as all other UC Lapras I've seen show up fine. Union Cave Lapras can be caught on any day by saving in front of it on a Friday same as any other specific-day-stationary. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1706682

Cough idiot that can't read how to use other fakeGTS servers cough.Sorry, Politoed in my throat. Anyways, that Blastoise belongs to Calbann, meaning it is not some uber hack that will destroy your game, and if this JackieChun fellow had actually gotten it direct from Pokecheck it would have a ribbon and he wouldn't have been able to put it on the GTS, meaning he must have downloaded the file and then used another fakeGTS to get it, probably without having a full party when he did.

Rock Head Blue-Stripe Basculin is now catchable in the wild in Black 2, it seems to have replaced Reckless as ability0, no idea if it can be caught on White 2 or if it's breedable yet. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1602898

Some of my DW Starters that have been evolved are showing up hacked (they're not) in a number of places (Invalid trash bytes, unreleased DW ability and unknown DW encounter), the unevolved starters show up fine however. Bulbasaur Venusaur Torchic Blaziken

Minor thing. Arceus holding a Zap Plate shows up as Psychic form in the 4th gen. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1431054 http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1431567 (HoO Arceus used so I could actually upload them through the GTS). I have not tried other plates so I don't know if they show up properly. Zap Plate Arceus shows up correctly on the 5th gen though. http://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=1431616

Sorry, looks like I could have been clearer on what I meant by "absolutely no DW ability", I was referring to things with only levitate and the like that have no DW ability when they come from the Global Link, things like Starly and Flygon can still have the DW flag as they get it from an evo/prevo from the DW and can pass it on to their offspring, although I have no idea how DW Shedinja should work as I have not bothered to hack a DW Nincada to test. As is DW Starly are showing up as "Invalid or unreleased Dream World ability."

Found an error, Pokemon from the Dream World with absolutely no DW ability (Misdreavus in this case) should not have the DW flag, but when they do (hacked or bred from hacks) they are still showing up legal on Pokecheck. Neither one of these is mine, the caught one was captured by a known and respected RNGer, the bred one was what alerted me to this error. What a Misdreavus from the DW should look like. What it shouldn't look like.

Back again. This Tentacool used to show up as "Valid (cute charm on ESV=whatever)." but now shows "Hacked (valid spreads: 5/8/18/6/19/24, 10/9/8/27/18/8, ).", it's the only Cute Charm Mon I have that shows up as having an invalid IV/PID combo. EDIT: Found 2 more, Caterpie 1, Caterpie 2. The Location also shows invalid slots. This Grimer has the same encounter slot problem which leads me to believe it's a problem with surfing CC encounter slots. Edit: Zubat with invalid slots, now I'm lost.

Signed up to report some problems with the 4th gen legality checker. Both these Pokemon are private, if this is a problem I can post screenshots. Scyther. This was caught during a chain (I had to start a chain because of the lack of correct encounter slots), but it says "Possible method J/K slots don't match encounter." Since starting a chain overwrites encounter slots any chainable Pokemon (any Pokemon from DPPt found in grass) has no invalid spread/slot combos. Above Scyther now a Scizor. Same Pokemon as above, now evolved into a Scizor, this time it says "Static / Magnet Pull encounter.", the only problem is that Scizor has never been catchable and Scyther is not affected by Static/Magnet Pull. EDIT: Another Pokemon, Shinx. This is a chained shiny with a Static lead but it shows "Unknown encounter.", it's like this for all the shiny Shinx I caught from the same chain.
