None of them are hatched Pokemon, so their PIDs need to match with the ones given in PID/IV. That's the problem... none of them match.

Evolving doesn't really have anything to do with it.

They're both captured Pokemon, so their PIDs need to be Type 1 from the PID/IV button. From what I can tell they don't. I didn't really look at anything else, but that'll fix the prob.

Nope, Legality Checker hasn't been updated since... February? You'll just have to look at it yourself for the correct PID, SID, hex, etc.

Yeah, I'm thinking that has something to do with it...

If you're not willing to present the file, could you maybe tell what its summary page says? With the nature and stuff? That may help some with this date thing.

EDIT: All right, I'm finished looking at the file. Just like I thought... the date was a result of the problem.

It's hacked. Pal Parked Pokemon should have "(Pal Park)" in "Met in", and arriving at Lv. 0 is a no-no. Egg hatched should be blank...

The Trash Bytes look wrong, too.

Looks like your friend pulled a bad one on you, eh?

Huh... yeah, then from the information given I can't see anything hacked about it.

Although one thing seems kind of odd to me, is that Legality is displaying the dates the egg was received and hatched. If the Pokemon was Pal Parked, then that shouldn't be there... the only reason it would be is that it's from a DS game.

Well, Nintendo does have some flaws with their hack-check system, no doubt about it.

An example being that a large amount of people in the recent Video Game Championships had their game marked as hacked when it shouldn't have been... the reason being that the hack-checking system didn't include the WORLD09 Weavile as legit (flagged as hacked because it had an egg move and wasn't hatched, as well as had moves it had to level up more for... stupid, right).

Are you positive that it's the Charizard's fault? It might be another Pokemon... as another user above stated, posting the file might help so that we could look at other attributes like hex, locations, etc.

Did the Charizard evolve after migration or was it migrated as a Charizard? The evolving-to-invalid thing only applies to evolving after migration... if it came as a Charizard, then—

From what I understand, anything that's migrated that's not Japanese or English has invalid trash bytes on the Legality Checker. French and all those other languages never had their bytes put into the program, I can't recall why... not enough samples to look at, I guess. So that Charizard is probably completely fine.

Sorry if this has nothing to do with what you're needing, just thought I'd point that out.

If you're still needing help with this, I could check them for you. Just let me know.

Sorry, I worded it a bit... badly. My fault.

Though, random, he says it's an egg. And he's going to hatch it in-game. So there should be no Farawayplace yet, thus no hex for it, either. He only needs Day-Care Couple and the hex for that.

Forgot to mention, for the Pokemon's name, it should be "Egg", no nick checked.

Maybe you'd like a sample of an egg extracted from the game? For comparison. I've attached a file from my game so you can try and get yours to look similar.

Are you putting where the egg was obtained in "Egg Hatched" or "Met at Level"? The only reason I can think of for "Met at Lv. 0 in Celadon City" is that you put it in the wrong place.

It looks pretty good. I didn't see any mistakes.

As soon as you get the OT fixed, it should get rid of "Apparently".

Try hitting backspace a few times for the OT. That should let you enter your own name.

As a little note, PokeGen can make Pokemon much easier than Pokesav (puts the hex for you, no OT issues, etc.), so that would be a good thing to switch to if you're not liking how long it takes on Sav.

No problem, I can wait. Take your time.

My FC is 4426 1621 2099. All right, I'll see you in.

Then I'm not sure what the prob here is... hmm, do you have a file of a Pokemon captured/hatched directly off your game that you can post here? If you do, then you could post that and your edited files up for comparison.

I could get the file for you through a trade if you don't have the file, if you'd like to test this method out.

I know the game checks for the original trainer, trainer's gender, ID, and SID. So you must've messed up in there.

Are you sure the SID is correct? There was someone else with this problem before, and in the end, even though they said again and again that the SID was correct, that was the problem.

You didn't use Smogon's programs to find your SID, right? That's how they messed up... the program's not the most accurate thing out there.

There's no reason that comes to mind for it to say 'Apparently met' if all of those things match.

Met at Place: Farawayplace (Route 34's hex: 46h - B6, 47h - 00.)

Egg Hatched At: Day-Care Couple (Hex: 44h - D0, 45h - 07.)

A hex guide can be located right here.

Only if it was caught. If it was hatched, you could just generate a PID, no relations to anything involved.

Legal.exe doesn't check the hex values, last I checked. Trash bytes, PID, EVs... it checks things like that.

As for the hex itself, no, this is a Diamond Abra. D/P don't use 44h-47h like Plat, it only uses 85h. So this file is perfectly fine.

PID problem, yes.

It was captured in the wild, so the PID must match. This PID doesn't, therefore... hacked. In this case it should be Type 1, but as you can see the PID isn't listed for that.

Another question. When I load a Japanese Pokemon in, the nickname turns into all these different values, which I'm assuming are the trash bytes. If I were to export that Pokemon's code, would the name display in Japanese, or that wacky stuff?

@ shh631: Yeah, that's what I needed. Now I can get to work on that.

@ alucard_thirteen: Going to do that soon, since you're asking for an easy AR code. Celebi won't be legal, by the way.

@ Riolu Aura Sphere Now: By max EVs, do you mean 255 in each stat, or 85?

Here you go, your SID is 64454.

Still don't see you.

I'm in, but I don't see you.
