I'm a girl, dangit!
just wondering, when you import pokemon from previous generations (D/P/HG/SS) does the location detail on the pokemon change to the region of where the game you imported from is based at?
the location is based on what region the pokemon originated from. what game you shifted it from doesn't matter. say you breed a charmander on 3rd gen FR, pal park it to 4th gen D/P/Pt, then shift it to B/W/B2/W2. it's location of origin is always going to say Kanto, no matter what game you trade it to. i repost this every few months in the hack check thread...it helps in determining the legality of traded pokemon...
While looking through my various 5th gen poke-shifts, this is what I've found in the various summaries about the location origination of the Pokemon:
3rd gen, Colosseum says: Distant Land, Apparently arrived at level ___ after a long travel through time.
3rd gen, XD says: Distant Land, Apparently arrived at level ___ after a long travel through time, Fateful Encounter.
3rd gen R/S/E says: Hoenn, Apparently arrived at level ___ after a long travel through time.
3rd gen FR/LG says: Kanto, Apparently arrived at level ___ after a long travel through time.
4th gen D/P/Pt says: Sinnoh, Apparently arrived at level___.
4th gen HG/SS says: Johto, Apparently arrived at level ___ . (says Johto regardless of which HG/SS region you caught it in)
5th gen from B2/W2 becomes “Faraway Place” if the catch location does not exist in B/W.
