Dragon Rules: at Lv. 9?!? WTF?!?! that's like such a low level to get an Event Pokemon it's an insult almost!
well either way..

There are more than a few event Pokemon that are at "low" levels. Particularly hatched Manaphy from the Ranger games, and the egg WISH events from Japan in the 3rd gen.

well, someone in the forum trade me a shaymin, but when I saw that he still offer it, i asked him/her if he/she uses an AR for cloning and he/she said yes.
I dont know if the question is OK in this forum, but, the shaymin is consider legit or if it was cloned by an AR is hacked?

Legit means created using in-game means. Hack is involving any device and making something happen that otherwise wouldn't.

Now if I clone a Rattata via the GTS glitch, and then clone it with an AR code...is there any difference in the data? I have no idea. I err on the side of "No" because I don't see why it'd be any different, but I've never looked into the issue myself.

(There is a very risky way of actually cloning Pokemon via Union Room/Wi-Fi trading. It's pretty much the link trade cloning trick from Gen I, and involves a lot of risk. It happened to me once during a random disconnect.)

Now if you're uneasy with cloning and events, I'd suggest don't trade for events. It's pretty much a fact of life in event trading even on forums that ban cloning, and part of why I don't trade events any more.

Can a Classic ribbon change what it says?
I have got a shaymin by a trade, and the classic ribbon says," A commemorative Ribbon obtained at a mystery location." but a few days later when I saw my almia darkrai, It said "A Ribbon that proclaims love for Pokémon." then I saw another time the shaymin i got and it said the same thing that the darkrai´s ribbon. so I dont know If its a glitch or if my shaymin is hacked

Sorry for my bad english XD

Yay, I finaly get to explain this.:) The Clasic Ribbon's text is suposed to say "A Ribbon that proclaims love for Pokémon". If you trade (or battle?) with someone that has a badly hacked Pokemon in there game, then the text for all of the Clasic Ribbon's in your game will change to "A commemorative Ribbon obtained at a mystery location". It's pretty much a small obvious flag to tell if someone has a hacked Pokemon in there game. I've done allot of research on this over the last few months, and I've found that there are only two ways to get it back to normal.
1) Trade with someone that has the correct text. (This will probably spread the problem to the other persons game though).
2) Pick up an event Pokemon with a Clasic Ribbon from the Pokemart. (As seen in my video here)
I'm guessing that this happens because of some glitch with using an AR that resets the ribbons text to default. (A ribbon without text has the default "A commemorative Ribbon obtained at a mystery location" text. Pretty much a placeholder untill the game knows what is suposed to be writen there)

So yes, if your Clasic Ribbon says "A commemorative Ribbon obtained at a mystery location" then you have either battled or traded for a badly hacked Pokemon.

Should that say "Happily eats anything" thereby implying that your Ho-oh has a neutral nature? Was this on the GTS?

And being a Ho-oh it should have something like Arrived from Kanto or Emerald Hoenn.

Does it possess a Classic Ribbon? If so, then it's legit. There's not much saying to it.

Don't know about this one. It has EV's, but what stats are the EV's invested in? If this is Adamant, and I calculate its IV's with 252 EV's in attack, I get a negative IV number for attack. You might want to double-check on this, but if I have to decide whether it's legit or hacked, I think I'm gonna assume it's hacked.
