I think that ball is actually the net ball dusk ball is more green and purple i believe

also if it was captured at that level the IV's are kinda sad so i think its legit

The page should not say "Apparantly met at lv.5"

It should say "Hoenn
Arrived at lv. (whatever)

So, it's a hack.


Maguschild, that Ledian is legit. Ledian can be caught at route 229 in the Diamond, Pearl (exclusively lv.52) and Platinum version (exclusively lv.50). Chances are, it was either a random encounter, or a chained shiny. So, lucky you ^_^ Also, the Ball is a Nest Ball (which isn't good for captures at that level)

Yay 8D He must've been asleep with a false swipe user or something and the trainer was ultra lucky lol I thought the guy might've ripped me as he said he'd clone my non shiny latios and give me one back, but he never did it and it's been a month x.x

Yes, you could hack any Pokemon to have a Clasic Ribbon and be in a Cherish Ball. That's what makes some hacked Pokemon hard to tell.

Are you sure that it says "traded" there?

pAC is still a very useful tool, defeated or not. I recently identified a shiny Mesprit I found on the GTS as being hacked. It looked perfect. :(

(That is a Nest Ball. Can be bought at many Pokémarts in the 3rd/4th-gen.) The second screen would actually be much more telltale. Was it "Kanto, Arrived at Lv. [...]" (Pattern Bush) or "Route 229, Met at Lv. 52 or 50"? (Chained probably) If it's anything else then it's hacked.

I believe it is hacked. Shiny + caught with a Nest Ball? Don't think so.
It could be chained, however that Nest Ball there makes me suspect it's hacked.
