I just got a Regice from the GTS and I'm not sure if its legit or not.

Name: Regice
OT: OSCAR
OT Gender: Male (blue)
ID: 13068
EVs (if known/estimated): N/A
IVs (if known/calculated): N/A
Nature: Bold
Characteristic: Loves to eat.
Ability: Clear Body
Moves: Curse, Super Power, Ancient Power & Amnesia
Current Level: 46

Current Stats: HP: 136

Pokeball caught in: Master Ball

I know it can't be obtained in Kanto without an action replay or something but if it was traded from R/S/E to Fire Red or Leaf Green then migrated would it say its arrived from Kanto?

A legit Regice should arrive from Hoenn regardless of which game it was migrated from.

It could say arrived from kanto if the regice was traded to kanto from hoenn, then been migrated from kanto to dp.

Nope. It will always say the region that it was caught in. I've traded pokemon from Ruby to FR, then pal parked them and the location data says "Hoenn"

I just linked to Gold Ursaring's event list a few pages back. All we're doing here is checking the info that you see on the summary, something which you'll be able to do too.

That being said, most GBA events being traded nowadays are hacked, they just aren't completely obvious (the visible info looks correct). I used to have a 10 ANIV Umbreon that was hacked.

Here was how it was made:

Someone started a new game in R/S/E with the OT "10 ANIV".

Hacked the game to change it to the appropriate ID#.

Raised an Umbreon.

It could say arrived from kanto if the regice was traded to kanto from hoenn, then been migrated from kanto to dp.

The other guys are correct. The Pal-Park area is where the Pokemon itself is native to, not where it's migrated from. This is made quite obvious because Distant Land Pokemon are from Gamecube games but Pal-Parked via GBA games but their info doesn't say Hoenn or Kanto.

That's weird,because I've got a Charmander that said "arrived from Hoenn", and the orginal trainer said he traded the Charmander to Hoenn from Kanto so the summary said "arrived from Hoenn".

Nothing in a GBA event Pokemon's coding prevents them from being shiny. So as far as the summary appears, it looks fine.

I believe it was fished up as a Magikarp, but can you catch them at lv.89 in Platinum? o_O

Keep going, Jack \o/
In Platinum's Resort Area, Magikarp can be caught in any level between 1 and 100. So yeah, I think it's legit. But how did you calculate it's IVs when you don't know it's EVs?

You don't need to know a Pokemon's EVs to get the IVs.
Because EVs are gained when you defeat a Pokemon. o__O That means they have no effect what so ever on the IVs.
No but they do have an effect in the equations to calculate the IVs, have you used a calculator like the one on this site?

You have to input the EVs to the calculator to get the IVs. If that Magikarp wasn't trained with a Rare Candy, it has EVs.
