The "Is My Pokémon Hacked?" Thread

Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

@Crowdeity: Um, you need natures for all of those, you left out the most important thing...

@Dethroned: Someone probably used the AR code that allows you to catch a trainer owned Pokemon. Even if it's not Cynthia's, there's no way it's legit.

Yeah, that's most likely. Oh, well. At least the thing works, right?
Also, thanks for the confirmation. :D
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

I'm never one to encourage use of hacks in battle because some people don't know where to stop. But if it's not illegal in any other way (EV or moveset wise), I suppose it's ok to use against others. Just note that some people, like myself, don't like facing hacks at all, legal or illegal.

If you're absolutely sure that those are the correct IVs and there's no EVs tampering with them, then by all indications they look legit if there's nothing fishy with the encounter data. The IV and nature combos are all legit, and honestly no one would hack stuff with such bad IVs and natures. :p So yeah, they look fine.

You'd be surprised ;___;

Fortunately most of those kinds of noob hacks have some other warning sign such as wrong level, location, ball, etc.

I'll keep that in mind I didn't know how to check if they where hacked or not and so now I know and yeah those are the correct IVs no EV training except for the Ho-oh (I battled with it once before I knew what EVs where) and thanks for the help :3.

Is the Ruby game used? If so, there's a fifty percent chance those are from either hacked or Colleseum and XD Ho-Oh and Lugia.

I'm sorry to say it's hacked. dratini and dragonair are found in D/P/Pt but only in mt. cornet

Yep. Based on the route, it's likely someone used a "catch a trainer's Pokemon" AR code to nab Dragon Tamer Stanley's lv. 55 Dratini.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

Who needs natures? A cart bought off eBay that had level 100 shinies of practically every pokemon? Obviously it was hacked halfway to hell and back. :lol:

I figured it was such, disipointing really, but it's not like I shouldve expected anything better wan buying the cart.
 
Re: The "Is My Pokemon Hacked?" Thread

My son's friend gave him a Bulbasaur egg for him to hatch, but I guess his friend uses an Action Replay to get pokemon, sometimes. Is there some way for him to tell if there's something "off" about his pokemon after it's hatched (or does it even matter)? I know there's something different about hacked pokemon, but is there something you can tell about their eggs?
