Need three more checked (I wonder-trade like crazy XD)
1.
Pokemon Species: Suicune (it has a Japanese nickname)
OT: (Japanese Name)
OT Gender: Unknown
IDno: 11107
Shiny?: Yes
Nature: Bold
Characteristic: Mischievous
Ability: Pressure
Moves: Aurora Beam, Mist, Mirror Coat, Ice Fang
Current Level: 50
Stats: 175HP, 85 Attack, 148 Defense, 110 Sp. Attack, 135 Sp. Defense and 105 Speed
Location Caught: Faraway Place
Pokeball Caught In: Pokeball
Any other notes?: It's Japanese

Actually, this is hacked, according to those stats it's hex-flawless. Shiny hex-flawless pentagon legends are non-existant without hacking, the odds going into the millions against it occuring naturally, even with the Shiny Charm. I say this is edited/hacked, especially since it's from Wondertrade.

It looks a bit strange, since if I saw right those are the last 4 moves Suicune learns up to Lv 50 with Ice Fang. It's also a bit strange for a legend to be in a normal 1x Poke Ball...if I saw right, it's encountered at Lv 41, so maybe it's legit...but I'd get another opinion.

That's an OR/AS Suicune (whose minimum obtainable level is 50), the HG/SS Suicune can be caught at level 40, even if this was a HG/SS Suicune it's still hacked (although for a different reason).

Sorry, my mistake. Most pokes I've seen that say caught in Faraway Place have been from ORAS and I kinda assumed.

Pokeball Caught In: pokeball
Any other notes?: link trade and hatched in blazing chamber

i was looking for a good foreign egg group male for a druddingon MM run as the current pairing has bad foreign IVs.

i hate the nick name of this charmander, if its hacked i'll evolve it for the dex and delete it. if its legit, not sure what to do with it after it evolves to charizard but might keep it for good IVs MM runs. either way its mostly useless for druddigon as it has the wrong atk IVs.

edit: i found a legit male JPN charmander i left in the box a long time ago from WT. i will use that one though its missing SPA and SDF but it will do the trick. still want to know if the shiny charmander is hacked or not. not sure what importance the blaze chamber may hold.

There's nothing special about the hatch location. People have been hatching eggs in certain places for as long as I can remember. It's just another special thing people do, like catching/breeding the pokemon in a certain ball. It has no effect, but people still go out of their way to do it.

As for the legality of the pokemon itself, my gut tells me it's hacked. Seems too good to be true for a WT and flawless shiny pokemon are usually suspicious unless you know the OT. I'm not up to par on almost anything gen 6 related, so unless someone knows the OT the odds are that the Charmander is just another GTS hack. There's never a shortage of hacks on the GTS after all.

Hacked. Eevee couldn't be caught in the Johto region (unfortunately) so it can only come from there if it is in a default pokeball.

Thank you for the reply. I do have a habit to keep some hacked shinies but I dont think ill keep this one after its done submiting dex data. Its too bad, I like the shiny form of charizard.

1. Depending on how you got it. By WT or GTS it is
2. Legit
3. Hacked. No doubt nobody gets 6IV penagon legends
4. Legit
5. Probably legit (although that master ball...)
6. Lacking event ribbon = hack
7. Depending how you got it.

I forget the term that this ditto is called, but it is used to breed Pokemon without a speed stat for moves like trick room, gyro ball etc.
But this Ditto has been edited to have these IVs for breeding purposes so yes this Ditto is a hack.

Trick room ditto is the term. And this ditto is obviously edited shiny + flawless (and trying to cover up with a nature like that) in gen 6 is just close to impossible

I see, does this "trick room" ditto do anything in terms of breeding?
