I don't think enough people understand the difference between the two, so I figured I'd make this post.

There's no way to tell if a 6IV shiny legendary is hacked, unless something triggers the legality checker. The legalit checker checks for:

Impossible move sets

Impossible abilities

Impossible caught level&location

Impossible shininess

Etc.

Obviously, if someone hacks in a legal pokemon, it will be allowed to pass. There's nothing wrong with this, because if they didn't allow 6IV shiny legendaries through, all those RNGers and super lucky guys would be really pissed off.

So please stop complaining about Pokebank's awful hack checker, since it doesn't even have a hack checker in the first place.

EDIT: Got both Legit and Non Legit Pokemon through.

Pokebank/Transporter has been great so far, with getting my original team from W/W2 as well as the Legendaries available. However it's been very tedious how you have to switch between cartridges to transfer some Pokemon at a time with in different games.

 

I have extra Legendary Pokemon from the transfers such as another set of the Unova Heroes, so if anyone wants to negotiate with me, that's alright. I'm looking for Jirachi, Shaymin, or Victini.

Sooooo..... Anyone else feeling that the massive amount of ways to make shines easier to get is making the whole point of them a little weaker?

I mean, it's still difficult, but I've only had one shiny, and I never (as far as I know) used any of the methods, and it felt AMAZING. Partially because it's all up to luck.

Nope. Shinys(especially breeding shinys) are still valuable and hold weight(except fishing shinies).I Masuda Methoded a Scraggy and it took me 3 days and ~24 boxes of eggs, worth it.

All of My fatigue has left me upon hearing the news, and I'm probably not gonna sleep for the next few days thanks to the revelation.

 

My original crew shall join my team once more. and with a brand new assortment of moves to give them as a reward!

Welp, first order of business aside from transferring my Legendaries: Breeding Moon Ball Abra right now (naming the males "Alba", after my first Alakazam in Y, and the females "Jessica").  All are going to be Timid, btw, for now.

 

 

Aside from that, not in any hurry to complete the National Pokedex.  Just gonna dick around with PokeBank/PokeTransfer for the time being.  =-\

As soon as I get my Latias/Reshi from White 2, going to cream the Elite 4 again with them (and also go fix up their EVs if I screwed up during their training back in White 2)

Once I get everything moved, going to restart White 2 so I can try getting the Swords of Justice and Reshiram with better natures/IVs (the other legendaries have decent nature/IVs already, but duplicates are nice).

 

Hopefully I do that before my trial period ends (debating whether to use the yearly service or not, given events lately); but it did give me some time to pre-train/catch most stuff I wanted before today. I should be able to do it within a month though (none of my Pokes are hacked, so there shouldn't be problems).

 

Removing the cartridges every time is going to be a pain (I only have about 3-4 boxes of Pokes, but it's still going to be a lot of moving)

 

 

Added you, Spike.

I found the highlight feature highly useful. I went through 3 full boxes before I noticed it, so it turned what was going to be a 30 minute thing into a 3 minute thing, and I finished my Y Pokedex by transferring everything through bank. It was so thoroughly nice, and pointed out that I needed to retrain a Tyrunt after I GTSed my prior Tyrantrum; though this new one has all 3 Elemental Fangs and Dragon Dance (I got it from WT).

Guys!!!

We need to get a tournament going as soon s possible. Think about it! We can now get any Pokemon we want, raise them how we want, and make "the perfect team."

So why not hold a tournament?

 

You really need to give people time to get a team made, along with having tiers actually made and tested.

We'd might have to use something similar to what Smogon does with their tiering systems (or we borrow theirs [though we need to adapt it for XY b/c of the new Pokes/moves/retcons, etc])

 

A month seems enough to prep teams and work out how the whole thing's going to work out, but hopefully people aren't going to be busy with academics, work or whatever.

 

 

Back on XY stuff, took about 15-20 minutes to get most of my White 2 stuff into XY (I didn't transfer all of them b/c those were leftovers I can get fresh in Kalos). So yeah, my White 2 team is now transferred (and time to train them up properly).
