The "Is My Pokémon Hacked?" Thread

Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

@Sync, soulds like it was caught in a hacked cherish ball, but it only has take down? Does not sound right, but could be legit given the level that you find beldum at, levelling it two levels would give you a metagross. Not sure if it should have learned new moves on level up/evolving though at that level.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

is it possible for a Raichu to have both surf and volt tackle? I just versed one like this on PBR random matches, and it seems hacked.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

I think the special Pikachu from PBR has those moves.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

The Surfing Pikachu has the moveset:

Volt Tackle
Surf
Tail Whip
Thunder Wave

So yes, it is possible for a Raichu to have Surf and Volt Tackle.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

k. thanks.

p.s. for some reason, it used protect as soon it was sent out.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

It can learn Protect from TM17.
The movesets can be edited, you know.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

I know this is cloned, but I can't figure out if it's hacked and to what extent if it is.

Pokemon Species: Deoxys-N
Nickname: デオキシス (Deoxys in Japanese)
Ribbons: Champion Ribbon
Ball: Master Ball
Area encountered: Hoenn
Level encountered: 100
OT: *some Japanese name*
Moves: Water Pulse, Recover, Psycho Boost, Focus Punch
Stats: In N forme
HP: 211
Atk: 323
Def: 105
Sp.Atk: 350
Sp.Def: 122
Speed: 306
Pressure

I don't care if it is hax, I only use it for trolling the E4 for exp and money. Just wondering.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

I always thought you only got Deoxys on the Sevii's? If so, then I have a feeling its probably hacked because it says it was encountered in Hoenn at level 100. Any pokemon that "is encountered" at level 100 always appears dubious to me.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

I always thought you only got Deoxys on the Sevii's?

Deoxys must've been caught using Emerald. When you migrate Pokemon, it says either Kanto or Hoenn, depending on what game they came from.

And Deoxys is normally encountered at level 30, not 100.
Nothing else is suspicious about the Deoxys except for the fact it was encountered at level 100.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

The level that it says it was encountered at is the level that it was at when the Pokémon was migrated. Therefore, the person caught Deoxys on Emerald, trained it to level 100, and then migrated it when it was already at level 100.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

I have this Japanese Infernape I'm thinking of trying the Matsuda method on. He looks pretty legit but I'm not so sure...

Nature: Hardy
Apr. 26, 2009
Day-Care Couple
Egg received
Jubilife City
Egg apparently hatched
Personality: Good perserverance

Moveset:

Close Combat
Flamethrower
Rock Climb
Rock Smash

Also, I've already bred him before and my soon to be Infernape seems okay. Neither of them are shiny for future references.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

I got a Lv. 100 Empoleon for a Lv. 25 Lapras in the Global Terminal today.

It says all the normal stuff a regular starter pokemon would say (Lake Verity, Apparently met at Lv. 5, Caught in a regular Pokeball) It says it was caught on Dec. 28, 2007.

It's stats are:

HP: 315
Attack: 215
Defense: 217
Sp. Atk: 262
Sp. Def: 206
Speed: 176

It was holding an Old Gateau.

It's moves are:

Drill Peck
Cut
Surf
Waterfall


I got it and I was like - woah... level 100 for a level 25 Lapras? I'd just like to know...

Pretty sure that's hacked. You cannot encounter any Combee that high of a level.

Looks Legit, but hatched at Jubilife City, that uncommon.

Looks Legit. Judging from the date and the location it was met, it was from a Diamond or Pearl game.

This Vespiquen is a hack. Firstly, you can not meet a Vespiquen or Combee on Route 226. Secondly, caught in a Cherish Ball. You can not obtain a Cherish Ball without hacking.

It's impossible to encounter a Level 1 Palkia at the Spear Pillar. The only legit level 1 Palkia currently should have Japanese names and the Faraway Place encounter location.

Mew cannot be hatched from an egg. Date met data is iffy and so are the ribbons and shinyness but the egg thing clinches it. And the "all red" ball is a Cherish Ball which you can't get in-game. Most 4th gen events have them and cheaters sometimes hack them.

Could be a Faraway Island Mew but the Poké Ball is suspicious. Possibile use of a "100% capture" code

The Poké Ball is a little suspicious, though it is possible to catch it with Poké Balls. Probably someone used a "All balls 100%" code or something so they could catch it in a Poké Ball but other than that it doesn't look hacked.
