Bah, I guess all we can do now is wait 2 weeks or so for a hero or have this issue unsolved forever.

Awww, that relatively sucks =/ I wanted to back up the save immediately after I get it...

Does Rudolph's tool straight out doesn't work? Or is the extracted *.sav all fragmented or something?

However, what about inputting saves?

My first Lv.100 in Gen II was Feraligatr and in Gen III it was Swampert~ I battled the E4 over and over and over and over and over again. But that's it... Never got 100 in Gen IV through training due to lack of determination/time.

No. As kazumi and I just explained in the last two posts, there is no way to determine legitimacy from the date and IVs alone. You can get virtually any set of IVs on any date. mingot (the RNG Reporter developer) will tell you the same thing.

Oh, okay. Thank you. I didn't see the second page of posts. Lol.

Hacked.

Suicune's Nature and IVs.

PokeRNG spread report for BOLD nature, 30+ IVs in all stats.

RNG Reporter's Seed to Time function.

Suicune's Capure Date.

The seed needed to RNG abuse that set is impossible to hit on that date.

So... to truly make a legit Pokémon, you need to use what's generated in PokeRNG? Just generating a legit PID doesn't make it legit?

i cant seem to figure out how to use this. do i need an action replay?

To use an AR code, you (obviously) need to use either an AR or an emulator that supports cheats.

It has a unique OT/ID/SID.

Does that mean it's different from the US one?

That version looks great. Before, the background image clashed completely and blinded me (until I realized that there was a option to turn it off.) Now, I don't have to remove the BG in order to see everything.

Btw, are the buttons permanently in that color? And is there still an option to turn off the BG when the desire arises?

This Pichu is the same as the US one, right?

Stay legit, kid. Delete that hacked Poké o' yours.

The IVs are still obvious, though.

Everything should remain the same as the Pokémon is originally from HG. Your game would automatically read it as received from trade, etc.

Btw, since your Suicune was originally from HG, shouldn't the name be in Japanese? Plus, the character limit for Japanese Pokémon should be 5.

Although the IVs sorta make the Pokémon look illegal, it's still legal.

The Uncommon/Rare/Very Rare/Ultra Rare are GBA only. Sync is D/P/Pt only (There is one for HG/SS, and when I get that info from mingot, I will include it).

But for roaming Pokémon in D/P/Pt, do they have sync? Because all the ones I caught had no sync.

Roaming Pokémon don't have Sync, right? So far, I've ran through all of my caught Roamers, and they all don't have the Sync.

Also, are Uncommon/Rare/Ultra Rare/etc. only seen on GBA Pokémon?

Since the legality type changed from 'Normal NDS or GBA' to 'Common NDS' is there anything new for GBA Pokémon?

It's because the colors on the scan were off. That tends to happen

I'm liking the crystal-colored eyes though, they've a nice combo with the red/black color.

Suicune is probably my most favorite legendary. If not, then Azelf or Jirachi, because they look cute, powerful and cute. <3

Awww... That means I have to buy another new system...

Hmmm, the eyes and the bead are actually just sky-blue. Maybe the Anime one is a tad bit darker.

Yeah, no, that doesn't hold any water at all.

Pokemon have been designed after non-animals since the beginning. The first Pokemon in the dex, the Bulbasaur line, is based on a plant. The Nirdoan line are based on a mishmash of animals. Clefairy line is based off of fairies and pixies. And because I don't have all day, Voltorb and Electrode are designed to look like a Pokeball.

Pokemon have always had a variety of influences for the individual designs. Anyone who thinks Gen I/II has more "animal-like" creatures than Gen III/IV have clearly ignored the dozens of non-animal based Pokemon found in the first two gens.

I kinda feel like I sparked a discussion. If anyone wants to discuss this further, take it to Pokemon Franchise. Thanks.

Total agreement. Absolutely true. Pokémon will always be unique. :3

I very much prefer extravagant and unique Pokémon over taking something in real life and giving it a little re-design. Plus, I think the first 251 were pretty unique themselves.

Zorua does remind me a lot of Poochyena. And I don't like that.

I think the possible linkage between Zoroark and Mightyena because of being pure dark-types.

They would never make a starring Pokemon an evolution of an existing Pokemon... that'd be absurd

But... it's another Lucario-esque Poke... which isn't surprising.

I think it's more of a Mightyena-esque. Not similar by looks, but by type. Another pure dark-type.

Well, even today we still don't know 100% of the structure of Pokémon save files on the DS, which includes all of generation IV (Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold and SoulSilver). So there really is no definitive answer regarding which programs leave what kind of traces. If you're not okay with that, just don't hack your game. :\

I can tell you that the software written by me was made to be as close to the games' natural functions as possible; I can't really speak for anyone else's software.

And there is going to be 5th Gen soon... And possibly a new console... I want to still be able to edit my Pokémon saves (at a level of entirety, which still isn't possible yet.) <.<

Did anyone else notice the fact that the evolved form has a different hair tie in the two pictures? In one its very thin with a leaf attached possibly and the other is a thick blue band. Weird... O_o

The movie version of the Pokémon could possibly be a slight variation.
