Well, as the title says I would really like to understand how do you read a 3rd Gen PID, what I mean by read is what means each part of a PID on that generation, which part determines the gender, ability, nature, shininess, etc, and everything that can be seen of a pokemon by its PID. Since this is my first post I'm not really sure this is the proper section of the forums to post at, if not please tell me so I can move this to the respective one. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out with this, its been a long time that I've been looking forward to finding some info about this.
