Yes, it's hacked. The Cherish Ball gives it away.

everything seems legit, the date caught is 11/13/2010 and that is throwing me ... but I think that that refers to when it was transferred to 5th gen ... the pokemon I transfered from soul silver/emerald/diamond all have the same caught date.

I also have a movie 11 victini UT with flawless/near-potentially flawless IVs ... traded under the premises that it was a clone (Adamant nature to boot) ... and I'm wondering if all movie 11 victini are flawless and I just got lucky on finding a good cloner with a beneficial natured victini or of it's a hack ?

seems to be a legit 2006 Toys'R'Us MYSTRY Mew ... I can't see anything out of the ordinary except the long travel through time and fateful encounter on the status screen ...

is there a better way to check a pokemon's legitimacy than this thread ?

Fateful encounter and the long travel through time are normal for transferred events.

If the ID doesn't match, it's hacked.

I believe all Wishmkrs have a 20043 ID. Unless for some reason shiny and non shiny have different ID's. Every Wishmkr I've seen has that ID.

Just checked, and the WISHMKR Jirachi for Colloseum wasn't released with that ID.

That's weird. The ID 20043 is all over the internet. And I personally have 2 Wishmkrs with that ID that have passed hack checks.

I also happen to have a WISHMKR Jirachi with a ID of 20043.

On a completely unrelated note, expect some hack-checks from me soon.

yeah the serebii database says that the colleseum disk ID no.s range from 00001-01000, but I can't find one with an ID no other than 20043 at least with a google search and actually found a few instances of this discussion on different forums ... so at this point I believe that it's most likely that the serebii database is wrong.

That's right, I said it.

unless anyone actually has a USA non-hacked pokemon Colosseum bonus disk WISHMKR Jirachi with a different ID no. (which can be done with RNG'ing apparently) to prove otherwise, I'm going with legit.

thanks guys(vandslaux and wingman) ... the bit about travel through time and fateful event is very helpful ...

No it can't be done with RNGing. RNGing can't produce results beyond the boundaries of the game so getting a different ID # for an event that has a specific ID # would be impossible.

Also no one has ever RNG'd a WISHMKR Jirachi. I'm not sure if it's because it was never researched or because it's impossible.

You sure about that? It looks like a legit event but if you raised it from Lv. 50 to 51 then it's hacked. The event Whiscash was given out at Lv. 51.

I'm not too sure, all I remember is not using very much, just a little then went back to doing something else. I'm 75% sure it's legit.

Are they rare?
