Sorry but I won't modify my Pokemon or changing anything in my save file to change it from stock captures to an edit. I just tested capturing a Froslass, placing in Home and retrieving it, it doesn't give it a Handling Trainer anymore so it could have been an early Home issue. I think it should be flagged fishy instead of invalid, there is no evidence to show that the modification is on my part.

Happens across everything I caught in Sword, all I did was transfer them into Home once in 2020 and transfer them back into Sword. There's no OT sharing, Handling Trainer is my Home account with a different TID. This is an incorrect flag. f

Getting this message in my Sword save for all Pokemon in my own OT I've deposited once into Home and brought back into Sword. I think it's caused because the OT Name and OTG in my Home account is the same as my Sword save, except obviously different TIDs because the Home TID isn't taken into account when transferring. Shows up in Development build and I didn't see a report about it, maybe I missed it.

The Genesect's nickname is in a non-Japanese language, it is not legal.

You can't. You can only be 100% certain that something is legitimate if you obtained it yourself, but you can make educated guesses and be less confident on legitimacy for someone else's Pokemon, even if it's someone you trust. You can ask for proof to show how they obtained it (a picture of their wondercard in the game with their username, or a video showing the process of redeeming) since you can't fake the card album on the Switch. Depending on what genned means to you, this doesn't prove that something wasn't cloned. Many traders trade cloned proofed events. If you are wanting uncloned, the best option would be to ask for the trading history of that specific Pokemon.

The Hadou Mew is legal. The Careful Negaiboshi Jirachi is interesting. It's legal, I have the gen 4 pkm file version of this Jirachi which means it's at the very least cloned, and my copy of this Jirachi was transferred from Pal Park on August 10, 2010. It could be possible that yours was recreated in gen 3. Same goes with the Jolly Negaiboshi Jirachi. My gen 4 copies of that Jolly one were transferred from Pal Park on August 27, 2007 and March 5, 2008. The rest are not legal.

The OTs reference people who worked at the Daisuki Club during that time. The mail that was attached to them had special phrases (5 Pokemon names in each piece of mail) you could enter on the Daisuki Club website to enter a drawing for a special limited edition DS Lite, and all players who entered authentic and unique phrases received a special DS GTS strap. I can only assume they were distributed by an in-house cartridge, if there was a wondercard for it no one has been able to find it. Inherently they're nothing too special, they're just prizes for sets of giveaways the Daisuki Club did in 2009.

Saori Bidoof and Ari Bidoof are available in trade circulation, I think some of them might be posted somewhere on this site in gen 4 pkm format. They're fairly common, I have them but I'm more of a trader and researcher rather than posting things for free. During my research, I can tell you that most Norii Bidoof and Ori Bidoof you'll find are fake. The Norii Bidoof was lost in time to the gen 4 traders, I've been trying to contact them myself since some were friends I used to know, but I haven't gotten any response. Ori Bidoof, I know of only 1 person who has it but they don't trade their pkm files anymore.

Which ones are you looking for? Pretty sure the Magikarps are available for free somewhere on this site. A lot of the Ralts, Shinx, Bidoof are also available in trading circles, there are some OTs that are restricted and NFT. Don't spend any time looking for Psyduck or Heracross.

My own Shiny CHANNEL Jirachis are being marked as illegal now too. I used this guide in 2018: I redeemed 5 different Shiny Jirachi using this method in ENG, SPA, ITA, FRA and GER languages. I've traded a few over the years but I still have ENG, ITA and FRA and those 3 are being marked as illegal. Just checked a backup of my GER too and it's also marked as illegal. I took video proof of some of them during the redemption process. It's very possible that something that I did or something in this guide isn't valid anymore but it was marked as legal before a recent update.

Good and Suicune in the same sentence is inherently invalid because it's a roamer. Remember about the roaming IV glitch, the HP value can be anything from 0-31 but the Atk can only be between 0-7. The rest are forced to 0 IV because of the glitch. Because of that, you won't get a good roamer. If you want good IVs on Suicune, you will need to find one using Colosseum's PID method.

Did you catch this in-game or did you modify this? Dratini can only be caught between level 10 to 14 in Crystal, yours has a met level of 15. HGSS changed the spawn to have a met level of 15.

Hey nice! That was my local Toys R Us as well until I moved out of the area in March last year, I lived in Bergenfield. That's the one that used to be on Route 4, I've been there for a few Pokemon distributions myself in gen 4. Unfortunately I didn't play the gen 1 mainline games myself, I was a spinoff kid until gen 3. But this is still very cool! Are you able to back up the save files to at least preserve them before the battery dies? I'm not sure if you would need to upload them, but at least having them preserved for yourself before the battery dies is great. I don't have any gen 1 save file dumpers myself but if I still lived in Bergenfield I would have helped you get the hardware and dump the save files.

Are you using the latest version of PKHeX? Charcadet shows up as legal for me.

This is related to the second part of my post. Steelix can only legally be obtained on JP region 3DS, but also only with the OT オメガ. It was not released in the English OT or Korean OT because the Japanese demo doesn't allow you to select a language.

Look at your OT/Misc tab, make sure the region that you set on your 3DS is correct. Keep in mind countries don't exist in other continents, Albania is not a region of Japan for example. Also keep in mind there are some events that can only be redeemed on certain regions of 3DS systems.

Yep, the transfer pretty much recreates official hardware transfer. Since you can trade the Pokemon to any game and any language (minus Korean in gen 4), the language of the carts don't matter in gen 4 or 5. The 3DS region information is set by the region of the 3DS that transfers the Pokemon from gen 5 into Bank. The only minimal thing that PKHeX transfer misses is nickname trash bytes from gen 5, but since you're transferring a Japanese Pokemon from a Japanese game that's not needed anyway.

Use TWL Save Tool to back up your gen 4 and 5 game save files. As far as I know, Checkpoint only works with the 3DS games, but personally I don't even use Checkpoint. I still use JKSM from back in 2017, never upgraded since it still works for me lol.

There are no Hadou Regis in the save file provided. The Mew looks valid, since it's the more common Mew variant for Japanese gen 3 games most of them wouldn't really be hacked anyway. Looking through the rest of the save, other than the Eon Ticket there isn't really anything else special on it. Seems like someone's save file from when they were a kid and they don't want the game anymore.

There are only 9 possible PIDs for Shiny WISHMKR Jirachi, you can't gen a random PID unless it matches one of those 9. You might as well grab one from this file or RNG a valid frame from your game.

That is an old hack from back in the gen 4 years. It's something I've seen myself when trading back then as well, I received this Mew on October 15, 2009. In my personal hack list I have that Mew listed as having invalid trash bytes. I looked at this Mew again to see if it even matches one of the 426 valid Mews, it does not. The IVs are 9/24/7/29/21/19. The date is just the day it was Pal Parked from gen 3 into gen 4. The seller's daughter could not have directly obtained it in that game as it needed to be transferred from a gen 3 game, maybe they're thinking about a different Mew like FAL2010. 151 Mew MYSTRY ENG 06930 Hardy Hoenn May 21, 2007 Very finicky 40 Invalid Trash Bytes

Jolly MYSTRY Mew is listed as 19/426 with its PID being 7F3126EF. Sassy MYSTRY Mew is listed as 44/426 with its PID being 1863B652. Both of them are legal.
