I couldn't find a hack check topic for Gen VI

Pokemon Species: Registeel
Nickname: Registeel
OT: MAY
OT Gender: (red=female, blue=male)
IDno: 00926
Shiny?: No
EV's: (if known) not known
IV's: (if known) 31/31/31/?/31/31 - as per the fella in Kaloude, also says that Sp. Atk won't even leave a scratch
Nature: Gentle
Characteristic: Somewhat vain
Ability: Clear Body
Moves: Metal Claw / Curse / Superpower / Ancient Power
Level Caught at: unknown
Current Level: 40
Stats: 126/77/123/65/150/57
Location Caught: Seems to have traveled across both space and time in order to reach the Kalos region from the Hoenn region.
Egg?: No
Pokeball Caught In: Master
Any other notes?: This is on my Gen VI X game and got it in a wonder trade.

I HIGHLY doubt it's legal, even if it originated from Emerald, all near-flawless (31/31/31/x/31/31 and 31/x/31/31/31/31) spreads don't roll around until after MANY hours if not days even with the speed up option of an emulator., plus no one would RNG it for a terrible nature either given how hard 3rd gen RNG abuse is plus there are better spreads like the 31/30/31/9/30/31 Adamant spread that comes around MUCH sooner.

Lugia and Latias are unable to be caught in Sinnoh, and are thus hacks.


Breloom I'm not sure about.

No pokemon from an egg will have a "Faraway place" tag on it, this Breloom is hacked.

It seems fine, but then it's in a Fast Ball, which I believe cannot be in the Hoenn region at all. So there's problem one.
With regards to the Party trade, if a Pokemon in the party knows a HM, and is offered for a trade, the game will block the trade as it may trap the player in a location. E.g. Try trading a Surfing Pokemon to someone else while in Azure Bay or the like. Won't work.
To overcome this, try trading the Pokemon through the PC, as in deposit that Latias, then trade it with another Pokemon in your partner's PC.

I'm pretty sure Fast Balls aren't available in Gen 3 though. :/
Then again, I'm no hack-checker.

EDIT: Also, that nickname should have been fixed to Latias. :/ Cause all of my Hoenn bred mons got their names fixed.

The ball is fine, but i don't know why it wouldn't be able to be traded.

Yep, that's true. It's a hack. Fast balls ain't there in gen3.

Because the Fast Ball doesn't exist in Gen III, it's, like Rider said, a hack.

So its because of the fastball? I guess pokebank's hack check is really bad eh :s

EDIT: Also, that nickname should have been fixed to Latias. :/ Cause all of my Hoenn bred mons got their names fixed.

I know right? But my Latios's name, nicknamed LATIOS, didn't get fixed to Latios.

I just got a shiny Heatran from wonder trade, and it feels too good to be true. So I thought getting it hack checked was a good idea.

Eveything seems to check out. This Heatran is most likely from the Pokemon Black 2/White 2 games. The Level and Moves matches up perfectly as well as the Ability. There's a IV Judge in Kiloude City to determine your Pokemon's IVs. For now, I'll say its Legit. :)

Thank you, I'll go to Kiloude City when I can and see what the IV judge says. :) I guess someone SRed for it in B2/W2 and then decided to be generous when doing wonder trade.
