My bad, a disclaimer was added to warn about this possibility years ago, but it was only added to the "tutorial" post that was made. I will update it to the original post that you linked as well.

Anything is possible, but this story in general just sounds fake. Imo, it's much more likely the seller just bought a real used JPN Emerald cart that had dozens of trades completed on it, and then injected the wondercard. There is no reason anyone in their right mind would have gone to that event in person and then just not completed it, especially someone as invested in the game as "yuuki" allegedly was.

Legendary update, thank you so much for following up -
Just saw you posted over on Digiex as well, I think @InsaneNutter might be your best bet getting this dumped (since you're in the UK); but if for whatever reason that doesn't work out, I would be more than willing to dump this save file for you, although I live in the US

Just assume everything is fake and you'll be a lot happier at the end of the day. 99.9% of Old Sea Map anything sold online is fake, Aurora Ticket is probably 99.8% lmao

Wow nice stuff! Would you mind posting screenshots of where you found the debug option to generate these Mews? I'd love to check it out myself; @ajxpk would too -
Bootleg With Save Chip
Gridelin replied to sobbingsobble's topic in Systems, Flashcards, and Emulation
Post the "save" you were able to pull here. Adding a battery to a bootleg cartridge isn't unheard of, here's an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-8MaLnQbko I'm just not sure how this affects the saving functionality. -

This is awesome, great stuff buddy. Honestly just being able to conclude that the DVs of the Mew pictured don't match any of the other classic Mews is very intriguing; @suloku originally told me that he had heard about the "NINTEN" Mews having different DVs, this just gives more credence to that theory. -

Thanks @RetroAli! I attached it to the main post of the topic. One really interesting thing in there is the OT on the Mew used in the screenshots: I know @suloku originally suspected that this Nintendo Power Mew would have this OT, and was surprised to find it was MARIO. I wonder if the default OT on the Mew Machines was NINTEN, and employees just changed it based on the event/location. I'm not quite sure how Gen1 DVs work, but if someone can calculate them based off of this screenshot, that would be much appreciated. -

You are giving Gamefreak waaaayyyyy too much credit hahaha. But yes, since it's Gen1, and the event was only obtainable on a physical cartridge, you don't have a whole lot to worry about in the realm of clones running around online in the wild or anything like that.

That's incredible. Also to add to the congo line of people willing to help, I too have a cartridge dumper and would be willing to dump whatever you need; I'm however in the same boat as Deoxyz and constantly using it. -

Wow this is incredible, awesome that you have it backed up as well; we would love to have the Mew preserved here whenever you can get them to your PC. To try and answer your questions, I'm not sure if any of those methods would work, but your best shot at trying to get a copy of this Mew would be the VC path you laid out, but even if that did work the Mew would not be considered "legitimate" as there is obviously no legitimate way to transfer from the original GameBoy cartridges up to Gen3+ We'd also love to have copies of the certificate of authenticity if you still have one, or even your picture at the event, feel free to blur out anything personal obviously haha!
