Naive nature, pokemon is level 100.

I've seen a trainer with that name in wifi battle tower lv10. In fact, I saw him multiple times, each time having a different team.(Sometimes I even fought him 7 times in a row) Seeing that the teams have movesets that are far too weak to have reached lv10 legitimately, I'm pretty sure that person is a hacker.

Of course, even if I didn't have that background knowledge, the shinyness combined with the suspiciously high IV's and the use of letters that (I think) can't be used normally in names sets off a red flag.

Ok i have a friend who gave me a shiny rayquaza. According to him this is a legitimately caught shiny rayquaza in the wild that somehow appeared in the grass Via poke radar. is this possible at all?
 
@Jodi: They look okay to me. I think you would need to use a hack checker to find out for sure.

It's possible he caught it in the grass, but only if he was using some cheat device to get it there :p Even if he didn't purposely summon it with an AR, I hear there are certain codes that sometimes make you encounter weird things.

I have good news and bad news...

the bad news...
The deoxys is a hack. The ticket that is needed to activate the in game event was not given out for Emerald, which is the only one of the three hoenn games that even has the Birth Island data. Now before anyone mentions that it was given out in the same year that Emerald was released ... yes, it was ... but the release of emerald came two months after the event took place. So it’s a hack. He probably used an AR or Game Shark to open up the in game event. So this pokemon will not affect your game negatively.

the good news...
The Darkrai is legit the member card was released for Platinum this triggered the in game events so you could catch your own Darkrai and it would have been caught at level 50

edit:
Oh and if you want people to check IV's we need the level its currently at, any EV's it has and all the stats. Also stats should be given HP/ Attack/ Defence/ Special Attack/ Special Defence/ Speed
