Ahh, that's right. I was under the impression that, well... I don't know what I thought really, something along the lines of it literally having ??? somewhere on the card xD

It's totally legit, not hacked at all. Asmo is right that it the Pokeball used to catch it could be hacked, but so could any other ball. It is not a hacked Pokémon, as far as the data goes. The ball doesn't even matter in the end, either.

Assuming this isn't a known hacker's OT/ID, it seems legal to me.
Looks like this one was RNG abused in 5th gen to have HP fire, judging by the IV spread.

I believe so; it seems you need to breed Gastrodon from a Friend Safari to get it (or you could have gotten one when Dream World was available).

Just to add to this, you can only get west sea(Pink) Shellos/gastrodon from the friend safari and the east sea(Blue) forme does not appear there. The only legit way to get a east sea with sand force is from the dream world as stated and/or if it was bred with the ability.

Just wondering, do you know how breeding works with Shelloses/Gastrodons? Is the form just random or is it the same as the parent?

The mother passes down the form .
I'm not sure about a male with a Ditto.

I am a breeder I am here to help out XD If you have a east coast it will produce blue shellos, and if you breed with a west cost pink shellos it will produce pink ones which it will be the female that passes down the form of course. I am pretty sure though if its a ditto with the form it will produce whatever form the male is which i did breed with a ditto litterly two seconds ago :3 hope that helps.

Almost certainly a hack, those stats look like hex flawless IVs (you can confirm by either checking the IVs or checking the EVs), and legitimate hex flawless shiny friend safari Dittos from the GTS don't exist.


Also, it's the GTS, take a look at how many posts there are in this thread of hacks from the GTS/WT, then multiply that number by a million or so to figure out how many hacks aren't being caught or posted.

Hacked, only natures which can have 6IVs on a wild Pokemon with a fixed gender in Gen 4 are Calm, Docile, Modest and Timid.
