Chat I had at Pokecheck.org Conri - hmmm. I hope I can still fix this because a friend was counting on me for this Aug 15, 01:24 Santos- Ummmm idk =Z Aug 15, 01:22 Conri - Thank you Santos, but I'm still curious about what makes it frowned upon: is it that it was bred from a hack or was it because its an English one bred from a Japanese dw eevee? Or perhaps both? Aug 15, 01:20 Santos- ur eevee its legit =) Nice job Aug 15, 01:12 Conri - Ah, so would it be better if I managed to breed a dw eevee from a legit japanese dw eevee? Or do you mean that breeding one yourself from a japanese one is looked down apon? I'll go ahead and remove it. Aug 15, 01:12 GaiaLT- Yeah I know it appears as legit. You can't tell the difference, but it's widely looked down upon. Kinda like RNGing on emulators. You can't tell, but ya know Aug 15, 01:08 Conri - I apologize if it is a hack. I was trying to help. Aug 15, 01:00 Conri - Really? Everything checks out. The eevee was hatched from a japanese dw eevee,but i shortly realized after I got it that it was a hack. So i bred with that eevee and got this one. You see, its possible to have one American if an american got a japanese one and then bred and egg. Plus everything checks out. How come its still a hack? Aug 15, 12:54 GaiaLT- Corni, actually many people do beleive it's still hacked. Sorry __________________________________________________ _________________________________ The above chat is one i had at pokecheck.org. You see, I acquired a DW eevee I got from this site, but then I was told by others that it was a hack. Before I knew it was a hack, I bred over 30 eevee's with a dw ability. However, today when I showed others one of the eevee's I bred with that hack, they all said it was a hack too. I understand that its ok to breed from a Japanese pokemon so you can have one yourself in your own language and country. But they all said that it is "frowned upon". Is it because it is bred from a hack? Or is it because it is bred from a Japanese pokemon not available in America and that I'm just taking the "easy" route just to get one myself? Or is it both? I'm so confused... Here is the hacked DW Japanese eevee I had (which I downloaded from the DW Pokemon Cafe thread on this site): DW Japanese Eevee -Also could you tell me what makes this hacked and if I can fix it? Also, I would really appreciate it if you could please show me where I can get a legit Japanese DW Eevee. Here is the DW american Eevee I bred: My DW American Eevee that I bred -Main problem Let me know what you guys think and thanks for the help in advance. EDIT: Solved

There is quite a lot of discussion here about the legality of edited Pokemon, but I've been wondering what effect (if any) minor edits have to a save file. For example, my wife DS's date was a year out when I used it to beat the elite four for the first time in Diamond, resulting in a weird save where I started my game in 2007 and finished it in 2006. Does changing these dates - or the dates Pokemon were caught on - have any effect on the integrity of the save file itself? Generally I'm more interested in Pokesav and similar programs for their backup and storage capabilities rather than editing Pokemon stats and so on, but I want to know if these seemingly minor changes are going to have any effect on my game before going ahead with them.

Well, i have a little problem with the online mode of Pokemon battle revolution, because it says more or less: alert. some of your pokemon can't fight. you can think that it's a legality problem, but the legality checker sais my pokemon are "wild NDS or GBA" or "normal NDS or GBA" and i can transfer it normally. can somebody tell me what's the problem of the pokemon? i think maybe it happens because all are legendary pokemon. i upload it so maybe you can realise whats the problem: Thank you for your answer 1.pkm 2.pkm 3.pkm 4.pkm 5.pkm 6.pkm

Hi there, I have a couple questions about the legality checker. Firstly, how long does it usually take to check the pkms? Is there a key I need to type to start the process? Secondly, if my pkm passes the legality checker, does that mean it is a perfectly legal pokemon that is usable in competitive battling, like PBR or wifi? Thanks for your time! I'm really excited to learn all of this.

The title says it. I see quite a lot lvl 1 shiny pokemon nowadays. Is it possible to check te legality of these newly hatched?

I'm trying to make my team legit. It's on Soul Silver. I read over the 44th, 45th, etc. thread, and am not sure if I am setting up my pokemon correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated! ^ - ^ First is my suicune. I'm trying to set it as caught on Route 25, since it can be caught there as an event pokemon. Suicune's 44th and 45th are 00, as it's not an egg. From what I've gathered from other explanation threads, I assume 46th is 00, and 47th is AD, for Route 25. I don't know what to put for 85th, since I couldn't find a list of types of captures for HGSS. The same applies for my next 5 pokemon, as I want to set them all as eggs, given from the daycare couple, and hatched at goldenrod city. Again, I looked through some threads, but am still unsure of all the values I need. Again, like, 8000+ thanks to any smart poketechnician that is willing to help a poor programming impaired girl. ^ ^;

Hello, i joined this forum just recently for this purpose, i would appreciate any help anyone can give. the legality checker you guys have here is really superb, but i was recently questioned about the accuracy of my checker, the checker provided here. the reason being is that the checker found 2 mov9 arceus' as hacks, we went to an outside source to decide the legality of the arceus'. turns out he feels they aren't.... now i know newer pokemon can be out of the checkers reach until a new update, and this is why i come to you guys today/tonight.../morning. long story short i ask for your help on a few subjects: 1. the legality of the arceus', if possible by different programs, with as many opinions as possible. of course you'll get the arceus', i shall post the pkm file here 2. why the legality checker failed these arceus', if anyone could shine light on this, thank you 3. learn other ways to do checks, i would like to learn a way to do this manually if possible, and them make decisions of my own, and not trust a checker, no offense. one of the arceus' is calm the other: Quiet (and they should be attached if i didn't screw up) mov9 arceus Calm.pkm mov9 arceus quiet.pkm

Hello, I'm new with PokeSav, but I tried it a few times. Unfortunately, I made my Pokemon illegal. I noticed it when I tried to send a Battle Video, there appeared information that there was a problem with my Pokemon and data hadn't been sent. I used PokeSav again and made all my Pokemon legal again but the problem appeared again. I tried to delete all my Pokemon, except one, (I copied my save file before) and then tried to send video again. Unfortunately, the information appeared again! I don't know what to do, is it possible to make my game "clear" again? Please help!

Hey Guys I'm trying to hack some "Legal" Pokemon, and I've checked them all in Legality Checker; they've all passed it with no hack flaws. However, there seems to be a problem. These Pokemon are all nicknamed, however when I put them through Legality Checker, the program says that they are not Nicknamed. Does this matter? Should I be worried about this? How can I fix it? -Many thanks, Style.
-
ok so i downloaded legality checker but whenever i drag over the pkm file it doesn't check if its legal it just shows this any solutions?
-
k, so as you can probably tell im trying to create legal pokemon. But i hit a typical wall...I DONT KNOW WHAT IM DOING! So the purpose of this thread is to create a "dummies" guide to the three programs above, so that everyone (including myself) can create and edit better pokemon. Depending on the usefulness of the guide, this thread may even be stickied! Note: The guide you are posting must try and: -be simple enough for someone with basic computer knowledge to understand -have a step by step format on how to use it properly -acronym meanings in brackets -include examples -troubleshooting( based on the most common and easily fixable issues) (moderators**you may add and edit this first post if i forgot something) Thanks

I just started playing Koream Diamond since I finished Eng. Diamond, Eng. Platinum, and Jap. Platinum + because I am South Korean. I captured Starly at wild and I changed the PID from the game to the PID generated by the PID-IV Program at this site. Furthermore, I changed IVs to corresponding IV values that I have putted into the PID-IV Program. Also, I have changed the EV points so that all the EV points (when added together) becomes 510. I strongly believe it is legal since I have checked with Legality Checker showing everything 'Vaild' and pokemon type 'Normal NDS or GBA'. Modified starly is legal right?

Recently I have been finding out more about the Ruby/Saphire Berry Glitch Zigzagoons. It uses the restricted uncommon gba event (ABDE), where every seed seems to be below 0xFFFF. Currently I have identified that the lower part of the PID actually does not utilize the B call to the RNG, however does conform to (A ^ ( TID ^ SID ) ) which ensures that it is shiny. However to keep the genders proper (female for ruby, and male for sapphire), there are more alterations done to the PID. I do not have a significant number of test zagoons to check, however it is possible that the high PID and low PID are altered (similar to chain shinies) in a way that would ensure the gender as well. I will bring everyone more info as I get it. If anyone is interested in helping, simply email your berry glitch zigzagoons to sabresite [a@t] projectpokemon.org and please make sure the zigs are 100% legit.

If I use PBR as a platform for wireless DS battling, will it trigger any legality checkers? If so, what exactly does it/do they check for?
-
Wait a minute. Doesn't that mean that there's a chance to get Celebi shiny and LEGIT? (drools at the thought.) I mean it shows up supposidly when you purify all the shadow pokemon. Edit: And have the Japanese bonus disc. But I've been hearing rumors about the american Jirachi to the same effect. That it can come off the bonus disk as a shiny. I have yet to come across a Legal copy of one, and Always seem to come across hacks that don't pass legal checker.

I am having trouble making legal pal parked pokemon in pokesav. I keep having problems with trash bytes. I am using the southern island latios as a base because it has the correct trash byte and is a pal parked pokemon from emerald. Now, I can edit anything in the .pkm file and it stays legal, Untill I change its name. Once I change the name the trash bytes are invalid. Can anyone help me? also when i use a random PID as if the pokemon was bread, it shows its type as a Unknow GBA Type. Is that right?

I saw this linked over at SPPF and wondered if anyone has heard about this, knows it's origins, etc... http://vlacula.no-ip.com/pokemon/legality_checker/ I started randomly checking PKM files from the former database/now PP and saw that Hayley's Aerodactyl came up as hacked. I'm going to check to see if maybe I have an outdated version. I'll copy/paste what it comes up with. Test results (shot report): ( 100% passed (4 out of 4 tests) Conclusion (type): Hacked Pokemon (try statcalc) ) Full report: ( [file] => ./tmp/HAYLEY-Aerodactyl-PKM Database_b91d1f3351b44bf2e2d5450fcfa4efca.pkm [pokemon_id] => 142 [pokemon_name] => Aerodactyl [pokemon_data] => Array [checksum] => 0x57E1 - Valid [pokemonid] => 323977588 - Jolly, Male, Ability 1, Not Shiny [ivs] => 3,20,25,24,25,31 [trainerid] => 1000 [secretid] => 43066 [trainersex] => Female [hiddenpower] => Psychic - 50 [fateful] => No [gendercheck] => Valid [ev] => Valid [nicknamed] => No [hometown] => Sinnoh [Diamond] [countryorigin] => UK/US/AU [type] => Hacked Pokemon (try statcalc) It also mentions something called statcalc (http://vlacula.no-ip.com/pokemon/statscalc/statscalc.zip) but I'm cautious of downloading stuff from unknown sites. So what do you all think about this?

Pokémon Legality Guide - This guide was intended for the use of D/P Welcome to the Pokémon Legality Guide. This guide will provide you information on the defintion of Legit, Legal and Illegal. In addition, there is also a step-by-step guide on how to make a Legal Pokémon with Pokesav under any situation, weather you want it to be PalPark, Hatched or caught in the Wild--this guide will help you. Definition * Legal (Valid) Pokémon are able to exist naturally in the game without the use of external devices. * Illegal Pokémon are not able to exist naturally in the game without the use of external devices. * Legitimate (Legit) Pokémon are created without the use of external devices. Because all of these Pokémon are also able to exist naturally in the game, legitimate Pokémon are a subset of legal Pokémon. Although illegal Pokémon can only be created with the use of an external device (they simply cannot exist without the intervention of such a device), legal Pokémon can be created either naturally or through the intervention of an external device. Legitimate Pokémon, however, are always created naturally. Because of the nature of these definitions, it is possible to check for the legality of the Pokémon, but impossible to check for legitimacy. Therefore, there is no objective way to tell whether a Pokémon is truly legitimate or not. Programs such as Legality Checker and pAC can only check for legality, not legitimacy. Examples: * A Torterra, originating as a starter Pokémon in the game and raised only in the game is legitimate. * A Spiritomb with Wonder Guard is illegal because Spiritomb cannot naturally have Wonder Guard as an ability. * The perfect 31 IVs, shiny, docile, Umbreon from the PKM Database is legal because it was created with the use of external devices, however, it could have naturally occurred or existed in the game without the use of an external device. Although it would be extremely rare to encounter such a Pokémon, all aspects of its underlying data could have been generated by the game naturally. Preparation First, in order to create a Legal Pokémon, the user will need: * Pokesav * Legality Checker * SCV's PID/IV Program * Trash Byte Normalizer "Pokésaving" The Pokémon And will also need a way of transferring Pokémon into your game. Beginning 1. Open Pokesav 2. Open your .sav file 3. Go into the Storage menu on the bottom right corner of the main Pokesav screen and select an available spot in any of your boxes and click Edit 4. At this point, select a Pokémon and the enter desired Trainer ID, Secret ID, Level, Happiness, Name, Held Item, and OT Name. 5. Enter in the correct ability of the chosen Pokémon. 6. Select a valid moveset. 7. Enter desired EVs, but make sure that the sum does not exceed 510 8. Contest Stats can be anything desired. 9. Marking can be anything desired. Hatched Pokémon 1. Region/Version, choose either Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum 2. Ball Caught With to Pokéball 3. Egg Hatched at to DayCareCouple 4. Met Level to 0 5. Met at Place to a location that is in the game, where an egg may hatch. Common locations include Route 209. Wild/Caught Pokémon 1. Region/Version, choose either Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum 2. Ball Caught With to any Pokéball that can be purchased at a PokéMart. It is not recommended to use a Master Ball. 3. The Pokémon may not know any moves which can only be learned from hatching. 4. Met at Place to the location where the desired Pokémon can be caught. 5. Met Level and choose a valid level depending on the Met at Place. Consult a Pokédex for this information. 6. Hidden Hex Values section, change 85h according to the method of encounter: 02 – Tall Grass 04 – Dialga/Palkia 05 – Cave/Hall of Origin 07 – Caught in the Water 09 – Catught in Building 0A – Great Marsh 0C – Starters/Fossils PalParked Pokémon 1. Region/Version, choose the GBA Pokémon Game or Colosseum/XD from where the Pokémon may be caught from. 2. Ball Caught With to any Pokéball that can be purchased at a PokéMart. It is not recommended to use a Master Ball. 3. Met at Place to 55 (Pal Park). 4. Met at Level needs to be the level at which the Pokémon migrated. This should not be lower than the level it can be obtained at. Trash Bytes 1. In POKESAV, click on Save in the Storage menu. 2. Name the file and save it somewhere accessible. 3. Drag the saved file (extension is .pkm) over the Trash Byte Normalizer. 4. The program will ask you to press Enter to exit. 5. Click on Load in POKESAV from the Storage menu to import the normalized Pokémon. Making a Valid PID/IV Individual values (IVs) are stat values given at random to Pokémon when they are encountered in the wild. Pokémon which have been bred have a higher predisposition to the individual values of their parents. Both the PID/IV Generator in POKESAV and SCV’s PID/IV Generator will generate a Personality Value (PID) for a given set of IVs. Using POKESAV 1. Choose the desired IVs and click on PID/IV in POKESAV. 2. Click Generate, look at the algorithms and find the one that matches the Pokémon being created. 1. eg. A wild Starly will be Normal or Wild NDS. 3. The corresponding natures are displayed to the right of the algorithms. Using SCV's IV/PID Generator 1. Open SCV’s PID/IV Generator and select the appropriate option. 2. The program will guide ask various questions relating to the Pokémon. 3. After answering the questions, the program will output legal PIDs. 4. Copy the first one to POKESAV. TIP: Some natures may not yield desired results. Try changing one of the IVs slightly. This will radically alther the given PIDs. Testing the Pokémon 1. In POKESAV, click on Save from the Storage menu 2. Name the file and save it somewhere accessible. 3. Drag the saved file (extension is .pkm file) over the Legality Checker. 4. Make sure nothing says Invalid. 5. The last line, Type should correspond to the algorithm used during the PID/IV stage. Congratulations! The Pokémon is legal and ready to be used! Frequently Asked Questions Will a legal Pokémon work on Pokémon Battle Revolution? * A: Yes, if the Pokémon is legal, it will work on PBR. How does a person make a shiny legal Pokémon? * A: Select the option for a shiny Pokémon in SCV’s PID/IV Generator. Exporting the Pokémon as an Action-Replay code does not work? * A: Due to translation limitations, a second program was created, POKESAVARDSOutput.exe. Load the Pokémon using this version of POKESAV. Will editing an existing Pokémon still be legal? * A: Yes, as long as it follows this article.
