That Shaymin is not hacked...
You can change the date on your DS, and the date on the Pokémon will be the same as your DS'.

For example, you get the Shaymin at the event, you change your DS' date for August 18th 2009, and when you pick it up, it will have the date August 18th 2009.

So you just basically reported someone for trading you a legit Pokémon.
Care to go to the Hack-check thread before trying to report someone?

Well, Pokémon can be in Master Balls.
The only one I could think of being hacked is the Darkrai.
If you would provide more info, I could get more answers.

There's no more info I could provide. I'm aware that Master Balls could be legitmate captures for all of them, but it seemed highly unlikely.

I think I got scammed in a trade. I don't remember the person's FC, but the person is in my Pal Pad

Name(s) (on chat): rickybobby
In-game Name: I didn't check
Hostmask*: Don't know
Friend Code: Can't figure it out, but the person is in my Pal Pad
Pokemon Scammed (if any): Arceus for VGC09 Milotic
The Story (What Happened): I had been looking for a VGC09 Milotic, he PMed me, saying he had one. I wanted to trade an Arceus I had on Pearl, for it, but wanted the Milotic to be on my Platinum. He came up with a way for that: I trade him Arceus, he gave me a random Pokemon (on Pearl). I was supposed to get on Platinum and then he would trade the Milotic for my random Pokemon there, thus completing the trade, but when the first trade (Pearl) ended, he disappeared from the chat room!

I am really mad about this! I don't know what to do about it..

i got scammed by this evil guy who claimed he had a mew but when he traded it he asked me to get hisother pokemon because he wanted to clone my manaphy,
i reluctantly accepted and lost the event manaphy holding a red scarf,
ifor some reason felt really bad and felt like throwing up because i gave him one of my hacked pokemon by accident and he GOT MAD!!!!!
he was gonna do it anyway,(the hacked pokemon was not mine,i got it traded by some other jerk)
so then he takes my manaphy and says he will give it back if i give him level onhundred shiny's.
i only have his friend code and his name is james;490;
to this day i still want a manaphy event,
if you have one please tell me :[

Pokemon Scammed (if any): Japanese Eigaken Arceus
The Story (What Happened):

That was a disaster up there. He said he'd give me a rare Pokémon for just letting him borrow my Arceus. I agreed, and he took it to use it for the Eigaken event, and then said he was gonna do something for his mother, and left and did not return. now all what remains of him is his registered character in my Friend Roster and his damn Pokéwalker Pikachu (Utterly useless.)

The Story (What Happened):
I asked for a Crown Suicune, and NYG responded. I gave him a list of offers, and he chose my TRU Arcues and Susumu Mew. He asked if I was willing to do a 2 for 1 trade, which I declined. He then offered to trade an EV'd Togekiss as well. We trade the Susumu Mew and Togekiss, and he disconnects right after. Now, granted it was partially my fault for not requesting the Crown Suicune first. It also is not like it was my only one, but it is still infuriating.

Friend Code: (I can’t get it out of my DS, however it says they are with the group “RAREPOK”
Pokemon Scammed (if any): Aerodactyl and Shieldon
The Story (What Happened): Offered me a Pikachu, which I denied. Kept pressing me, so I got suspicious and went along with it. Was very persistent in giving me a “Manaphy Egg.” Upon seeing the egg I could easily identify it as not being the egg from Pokemon Ranger—as I already have one. Still curious, I went along with it (I have extras of said pokemon and don’t mind losing them.) So when I tried to trade the Aerodactyl they asked for, they wouldn’t give me an egg and instead offered a bellsprout. I was still curious, so I went along with it. I got said bellsprout for one pokemon and then got an Egg from a link trade for the second pokemon. I then pointed out that Manaphy Eggs look different, which they automatically denied.
It is most likely a scam, but seeing as the egg is yet unhatched I don’t know. I figured I would report it for further reference. Sorry I was unable to get some of the information.

I should have looked at the status screen when trading... It's partly my fault for not looking at the screen. The celebi was Level 100, caught on route 202, and was in a Luxury ball.
