Hacked or not hacked?

[Pirate Dave]

There are quite a few threads asking about specific pokemon, but i think it would be useful if there was a definitive answer or way of checking once and for all; what qualifies a pokemon as HACKED?

A few specific examples i can think of:

If you cheated to get a pokemon that pokemon is obviously hacked, but if you cheated to get another and then bred them, would the resulting pokemon also be hacked, i mean technically not morally, yes it would be morally cheating, but if you went on the Gym challenge would that resulting pokemon show up as illegal?

Also, if you use the EXP. Gain cheat on a pokemon, would that make it hacked, again technically not morally.

I'm not really looking for opinions here, so if you are looking for an opportunity to rant about a fireblast-magikarp you lost against go somewhere else.

I am looking for someone with actual knowlegdge of the examples i have given and any other examples to tell us what qualifies your pokemon as hacked. It would be useful for everyone to know. Plus i want a Typhlosion and don't have broadband or a Typhlosion on emerald. lol.

Any pokemon with these OTs are hacked:

YATES
Tumbly

Any pokemon with these ID's are hacked:

00000

If an uncatchable pokemon in the Sinnoh region (Mewtwo for instance) was caught in Sinnoh, it's hacked.

If a pokemon is met and not arrived at level 100, it is hacked.

Hope this helps and here's some more info on hacked pokemon.

Also, if a Pokemon has More Stats then it's Supposed to, or an Illegal Move. those are some ways's you can tell.

The OT 00000 doesn't necessarily have to be cheated. The chances of getting that ID are the same as getting any other ID and with as many Pokémon players as there are, chances are someone will have an ID like that. IDs like that are usually a sign of a poorly hacked Pokémon, but it could be completely legit as well.

Actually, I believe it's possible to get a shiny Celebi from the Japanese Colosseum bonus disc and I think it's possible to get a shiny Japanese Mew as well. What you said should be more like: All shiny English Mews and Celebis are hacked.
