Actually larvitar can be found at lv 6 as well. (just double checked, apparently in plat larvitar swarms, and is lv 5, but at route 206. Won't know till Ig et a larvitar swarm)

I meant that it can only be found at Lv7 on Route 207, which is where he said it was caught.

Can you do hack checks with PBR?

and if so, can someone tell me how?

"Hack Checking" with PBR is not that great, but it does let you check these things.

1. Invalid EVs, like over 510.

2. Illegal PP (and possibly moves).

I'm pretty sure there are others, too. If you put something into PBR and it comes up as a bad egg, that means it was _badly_ hacked.

1. Invalid EVs, like over 510.

2. Illegal PP (and possibly moves).

Internally, it checks for very little. It's probably the most simple, such as invalid EVs. 6 IVed Pokemon are let through as I've confirmed myself. As for movies, I doubt it does that internally as that would require an extensive internal list of all move tutors and event moves to cross-reference with, and I doubt the cash-in that PBR is would do that.

But the Wi-Fi hack check does seem to check for much more, including certain hex data and PID/IV relations. However, we'll probably never know for sure what PBR Wi-Fi checks for since I doubt Nintendo will say anything, and it isn't in the game's programming.

This looks normal the smiley means that it had pokerus but doesn't spread it anymore. And those look like fairly ok stats for an adamant metagross. Its definetly not ev trained but was probably just trained normally like most pokemon are if a person doesn't know about evs.

Mega hack, they caught Cynthia's Lucario, or out front. Lucario can only be obtained as riolu eggs or pokemon events (world08 & palcity), either breeding or from Riley.

Yeah, i thought so...any ideas what i should do with it??? im thinking of trading it for something of less value...

*Has had Pokerus, and is untouched*

the way it has had pokerus and it is untouched in experience puzzles me. I think someone must of used action replay or something to give it pokerus in the first place.

what do you think?

I meant that it can only be found at Lv7 on Route 207, which is where he said it was caught.

Sorry for the late response. But I've been at a friends all weekend.

Are you going by just how serebii has it @ 7 only in the pokedex? Cause if so, it's flawed (not being mean, but nothing's perfect) which is why I use multiple sources... Seeing as bulbapedia, marriland, and 3 seperate videos on youtube of people encountering lv 6 larvitar (one being shiny he chianed), the TTar I have mentioned below, and I asked people with diamond to go find larvitar @ lv 6 in their game... pretty sure it can be found at 6.

I checked about larvitar @ 6 from 207 a good while ago when someone traded me a shiny tyrannitar

Kinda moot since he said his was met @ 5 anyways. Just didn't want people to get the idea that the ones @6 are as well.

And to the above about the celebi with 'rus, but no XP. A pokemon does not have to gain XP for it to spread, it just has to be in the party with another poke with 'rus, and have had the trainer fight a battle (trainer or wild poke) for it to spread (just like all 6 pokes in your party get the champ ribbon, even if you only ever used one). It can take multiple battles as well.
