Really!? That's great! But what about how it has no sheen when it looks like it has an enhanced beauty attribute? Thank you very much!

Edit2: I'm worried about this pokemon

Nickname: (Japanese) Garchomp
OT: (Japanese)
OT Gender: Red/Pink
ID: 01722
EVs (if known/estimated): IDK
IVs (if known/calculated): IDK
Nature: Jolly
Characteristic: Often doses off
Ability: Sand Veil
Moves: Earthquake, Fire Fang, Crunch, Dragon Rush
Current Level: 100
Level Caught at: Egg Hatched
Location received: Day-Care Couple
Current Stats: Hp: 358 Atk:359 Def:216 Sp.Atk: 168 Sp.Def:197 Speed:333
Pokeball caught in: Pokeball
Notes: This, right here, is what concerns me:

Jolly nature.
AUG. 17, 2007
Day-Care Couple
Egg recieved.
AUG.24, 2007

The two dates are different

Whenever someone has an answer, please...

Some one Altered the date in to the past. Not a sign alone to be a hack.

No they didn't, the first date is the date the egg was received, the second date is the date that the egg was hatched on.

Hence why it reads as this in a hatched pokemon summary;

AUG. 17, 2007
Day-Care Couple
Egg recieved.

AUG.24, 2007
location - or link trade if it was traded to you as an egg
egg hatched

So to summarise, the pokemon is legit.

Without knowing IVs, your guess is as good as any of ours. I suggest you look at the event lists in the first post. But from glancing them over, they're all legit. Ho-Oh from a Kanto Ticket, and the other two from their respective events.

Darkrai

Okay, i have a lvl 50 Alamos Darkrai, no exp, its in a cherish ball. Seems to be completely legit, only thing is it already has maxed EV's. Is this strange to anyone else?

No.

Vitamins+Quick Claw+battling level 3 magikarps doesn't gain a lot of experience.

Thing is though the trainer ID is 05318 and has a Classic Ribbon. Still a posibility that it is a hack?

A legit OT/ID# or the fact it has the ribbon doesn't make it legit automatically, as i said if it has no EXP, but has EV's, then it has to be hacked, especially if as you say they are maxed out EV's.

Thats a hackers job, to make a hacked pokemon look as legit as possible.

Also you never told us how you know it has max EV's.

AnnivSH are fan made events. It's hacked.

Nothing is inherently suspicious about the Deoxys unless more information is provided.

No. The GBA AnnivSH Pokémon aren't hacked. They apparently were given to SH webmaster (Link Elfe) so she could give them away, then she cloned them for distribution.

However, the 4th gen ones in Cherich Balls are hacked.

That is known as fan-made. Nintendo has had events in Europe distributed by retailers, put on as Nintendo Pokemon events. There is no reason they'd go through some unofficial third party for it, and no reason they would use cloning to distribute their own events.

It's hacked.

There is a reason they aren't listed on any event list, and that's because they aren't actual events.

Either you are lying or misinformed about AnnivSH, or more likely the webmaster who made these events fooled people and lied to others to trick them into thinking they're legit.

It can be max EV's without training etc through vitamins unless if he means max Ev = 255/252 per x stat.

He said Azelf, not Jirachi. And after looking at it, it's IVs and nature look random enough to be legit. It looks real to me.
