Despite the hacker who was able to get some "illegal" Pokémon (he said he won't be trading them) there are no similar cases yet.

So it seems that i was lucky then. Thanks.

That's pretty common, actually, now with all legendaries getting 3 or more perfect IVs. The Timid Yveltal I caught had 15/31/30/31/30/31, and the Xerneas I got over the GTS had 31/31/X/31/X/31. It just depends on your luck whether you get more than 3 perfect IVs, and whether the non-perfect IVs are high.

I know that, i got a very good Xerneas in my Pokemon X.But someone having traded this very good one for nothing but an unknown Zapdos...

could someone tell me how to take off the shout out bubble option on the pss? i've been trying to figure it out and can't get it off. any help would be great, thanks!

You mean where it asks you to make a shout out?
I think with any of those pop-ups you can just hit b

no, i made a shout out message and now no longer need the message. but i can't figure out how to change it back to my regular message without having the bubble smiley face next to my person.

edit: nevermind i figured it out. it seems the bubble goes away the next day

might be a long shot here but ill try... is anyone willing to trade mewtwo or charizard's X mega stone?

Ideally i would want both the stones but prepared to give up the Y versions. I have aggrons, and houndooms mega stones i can trade too. Also some shiny dragalges and skrelp (i know easy to get i suppose)

PM me if anyone wants to trade charizards X stone in particular :)

Got some Foreign 5IV and 4IV's Pokemon from Wonder trade. Not bad :D
Gave them 4IVs Protean Froakie back, so I think its a good deal :)

I've been decently lucky when I Wonder Trade. I've gotten the occasional randomly-caught low level Pokemon, but I've also gotten stuff like Chespin and Froakie with their hidden abilities. My favorite so far is the Japanese jolly Torchic I received a few days ago.

I know it's part of GTS's risk but...couldn't people read what "Japan4IV HA only" means? I would suppose 4IV HA part would sound gibberish to casual players, but I'm pretty sure it's understood when I say Japan I don't mean from the United States.

Unfortunately, you also can't guarantee that everyone's honest.

True, but many people are decent with their trades, especially the Japanese (that's why I prefer them as foreign Masuda parent sources). After all, RNG karma can hurt really bad.

Well not so much for me, one of the many reasons why I don't use GTS. In fact I've gotten way better trades from Wonder Trade.
I traded away 5 with Hidden Abilities, requesting for others in Friend Safari's that I didn't have. Did the whole message thing wasn't expecting much, but you can get screwed over badly due to the small request options. I mean all there is for you to choose from is the Mon, Gender, and Level they need to give us more options like Abilites, and Region so the trades are more specific. Sure people can abuse that to request something that's near impossible to get, but at least we have filters to get rid of all the crappy trades.
I'm done requesting Pokemon on GTS, I might still seek out Pokemon for those that actually are reasonable. An I'm more then generous to them giving something with 4-5IVs, HA, possibly even Pokerus just depends.

I to really wish abilities was a parameter. When I asked on the GTS for a Hidden Ability Goomy I got lucky and was sent one straight away thanks to some awesome person from Japan. Also got my Portean Froakie really fast. But now however I've been hunting for a Lightingrod Pichu/Pikachu and constantly get Static ones sent over, while in return they get Hidden Ability Eevee's (which I now need to go re-breed as I am almost out).

I'm kind of surprised that wasn't included as an additional filter as well really. I wonder if it's something GF may consider for future titles?
I deposited into the GTS a couple times requesting a Drought Vulpix with my own HA. Took a couple tries, but I finally got it. XD
