This is all really long, so be prepared..... Well, since I've been addicted to my Platinum and haven't really been on the forums lately since I didn't think I did anything wrong, I haven't been reading anymore about tips or how to make legality. To be honest, I have no clue if anybody has already posted a topic like this, and I'm sorry if they have, but I couldn't find anything like this, so I'm just making a new thread. I started making a new team for my Platinum very long before it came out. In fact, I started making it even before anybody knew it was going to come out, so as you could of guessed, I was bored and wanted to start a new team. Conveniently, a little bit after I had finished making my team, I found out that Pokemon Platinum was coming out, and I got really excited because I was actually going to be able to start fresh with my new team! Now keep in mind that I didn't have an action replay back then, or was my Pokemon Diamond hacked in any way. I also bred them all to perfection, down to making sure the nature was right, and even the gender I wanted them to be. I saved the training for my future Platinum when it came out, so it would be completely trained by my Platinum. About a month before it came out was my birthday. My best friend had an action replay, and I was against cheating like a good democrat is against Bush. But, eventually, I gave into that evil temptation and asked for an Action Replay for my birthday. My birthday, Feb 26, I did get an action replay. I decided to join the Pokesav Forum. I read all about hacking and cheating, and what EVs and IVs were, and how many EVs were the max, etc. Then I thought, how cool would it be if I hacked my team instead of using the legal pokemon I had spent over 4 months breeding to perfection? After all, their attack and speed would be amazing.... At that point in my thoughts, I started drooling. I couldn't stand it any longer! I had to get hacking! So away to my computer I went, copying down their abilities, levels, original trainers, and more to Pokesav. My hands were shaking with excitement when it came time to export the code. It would be amazing. I exported the code onto my Action Replay, and activated the code onto my DS.... (I had heard about it replacing any other pokemon in your party, so I was sure to get stupid pokemon to fill my party up such as Bidoof) And there was my gorgeous dream team before me! I was so happy. I opened up the summary to check if I had done everything right, and.... what does it say?!? Egg "obtained"? Not egg "recieved"?!? Also, "apparently hatched"? Not "hatched from egg"?!?!? Argh, back to the drawing board. Anyway, I spent some time researching about how to fix that, and after multiple tries of trying to get the team right, came to the conclusion I would have to trick Pokesav into "changing" my name and Trainer ID to what it was already in the game to get it to make the pokemon look completely legal. So, I tried again, and finally, oh this precious moment was too much to bear. I was praying I had done it right this time.... and as I open my eyes, I realize I had done it right! I was pretty much hopping up and down with joy. I hadn't realized what I had done until I looked at my original Diamond party, the one which I had trained before that. They all said that I hadn't hatched them from beloved eggs, or that the trainer that had hatched them wasn't me! I was pretty sad, but then realized it wouldn't matter because my main game was going to be Platinum. That cheered me up a little bit. Anyway, time warp ahead to when I get my Platinum game.... April 6th, 2009 The day had finally come. I had convinced my parents to take me along with them on one of their errands and let me buy Platinum while they're there. I was pretty excited. When I got home, the first thing I did was get to Sandgem town so I could trade the sparkly new team I had made in Pokesav to my Platinum. Time warp ahead to me realizing I had made my Pokemon team just a little too powerfull to be true... A little after I beat the Elite Four, I took a look at my Pokemon's stats. They did look a little too powerful, after all. I mean, come on! My Tyranitar was only at level 50 or so and had an attack of 224 already? That's what my Luxray's attack was at level 74 in my Diamond game! I started to get a little nervous. Time warp ahead to after beating the Elite Four and after making a battle video of me beating the Castle Brain of Battle Fronteir..... I had just made this awesome new video of me beating the Battle Fronteir Castle Brain in a breeze. I quickly Fly to Jubilife City and run to the Global Terminal so I can post my amazing new video on the network. I go to the little station and select "Post My Video". Here's where the whole point of all this writing comes in. After about 3 seconds, it says "Something seems to be wrong with your Pokemon. We were not able to post your video." Or something like that. That really freaked me out. My pokemon were already all at level 62, and NOW it tells me I have something wrong with my pokemon?!?!?!? What did I do wrong? Someone please tell me. Also, sorry for taking up so much space with my extensive writing.... I just felt I had to get it out. If someone requests it, I will post all the stuff I put into Pokesav to make this team. My suspicion is it either has something to do with the Hex Values or the EVs. What I think I did wrong is I put the EVs at like, 250 for attack and all the rest of the stuff, but the total does not exceed 510. I made sure of that. But what I think went wrong is that as they level up, they gain EVs, so in the long-term, they did exceed 510.... is that true? Another suspicion I have is that I did create a Shiny Swampert as one of my team members. I didn't use an application to create the PIV of PID or whatever it is, but the only question is I didn't use it in that battle video..... SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!! Thank you so much!!!
