I wanna ask you something.
I recieved a fair few manaphys from the GTS, but the Date Obtained and the Egg Obatained date are different.
eg
Trainer Memo July 9, 2012
Pokemon Ranger egg obtained July 18,2012 or somthing like that.
Is this normal for a manaphy?

I still enjoy doing this hack checking. Hack checking is something I like to do every time I drop by here. However argument here is off topic and I will ignore. Besides I never stick to my decision as who gives a care of a person making a solid decision not to drop by in the forum just because of someone?
tailmister:
It should be legit XD Gale of Darkness Lugia. What I know the name is dependent on the username and can be caught in Masterball. Someone proved me right that he caught it in Ultra ball.
ChiefLucarioOfficer:
It is hacked because it is not an event. Also it shouldn't be stated apparently met at level 100. It can't be caught in master ball too.

Hacked. The Event where you could catch Mew was only for Japanese Emerald(s).
Edit:
Edit:
Uh-huh. As if anyone were ever that lucky. Anyways, it should look something like this: Ｍｅｗ／ Ｋａｙｌａ.

And this wouldn't be from that event because the name is in English? Thanks - I expected that any event pokes I get on GTS are hacks, but thought this might be the exception.
Well, you just had a bad luck, sadly people still trade hacks on purpose. But you can't say that any event pokemons in gts are hacks, I already saw and traded a bunch of events that looks ok.
It could have been nicknamed Mew if it's from the Faraway event in emerald (as it has the trainer's ID/SID). Check to see if the characters look a bit weird, english/latin characters are a little bit wider in the Japanese games that they are in our games. You could also trade to PtHGSS (or pokeshift to genV) to see if it unlocks a japanese dex entry for Mew.
You don't need to transfer it; Gen 4 games use the same fonts as Gen 5. If it doesn't say Ｋａｙｌａ like that, it's a hack (it most likely is anyway).
just received 8 legendaries
so i have been on a quest to get all pokemon legitimately in soulsilver. my friend helped me out and gave me 8 legendaries i needed, but i wanted to make sure that they are all as legit as possible, so if you guys would like to just make sure they're not obvious hacks, i would much appreciate it.
Since i didn't personally get any of these, i just want to be sure...
(also note, he told me "Ryo" is his personal game name in every pokemon game he has)
thank you so much for any help

Shaymin must has the Fateful encounter tag. No fateful, it's hacked (or obtained via tweaking in D/P, which isn't exactly a legitimate way either, since Shaymin's area is accessed without the use of the event item)
Latias and Kyogre looks fine.
Deoxys I'm not sure, but it looks fine enough (I mean, who would want to hack a lv 30 non-shiny Deoxys that's Sassy but Likes to Run?)
Palkia, Darkrai, and Manaphy looks fine.
Arceus.....yeah, you're correct. Your friend definitely hacked the Azure Flute.
It's technically "legal" (not legitimate since the Azure Flute was never released, yet not exactly hacked either, since the only thing that's hacked is the Flute) but some people consider the Arceus as hacked anyway.

There is no in game Arceus event. That is why people think it is not possible to get it unless by hacking.
Deoxys looks fine. Most Pokemon has detrimental Natures but Characteristic backs it up. Very common in events. Though it is rare to find UT in game event Pokemon in trade unless GTS clone.
