When I RNG'ed my Kyurem I went for the best spread possible because of Black/White Kyurem. That Kyurem won't make a good Black Kyurem! D:
I just want to ask, but why are shiny mews considered hacks? occam's razor?

The only possible way to get a shiny Mew is the Japanese Faraway Island Mew. I think it was just that a lot of people were offering 6IV shiny Mew, which i'm fairly sure aren't possible to get by any means. :o
Because a very long explanation that I've typed out 10 billion times a day @.@
To even have any possibility of getting a shiny Mew you had to have a Japanese Emerald game and had gotten the Old Sea Chart when the event was available. You then had to reset thousands and thousands of time to get it to be shiny, although I doubt anyone did this because it wasn't known it could be shiny back then. Then later on RNG was discovered and you could then get shinies but by that time I very highly doubt anyone had still kept their Old Sea Chart that entire time. Therefore, the chances of finding a legit shiny Mew are about as likely as you finding a million dollars laying on the ground. It's not going to happen pretty much. So every shiny Mew can be safely assumed to be hacked or the item was hacked in to obtain it. Either way Mew is hacked and since hacks aren't allowed to be traded here shiny Mews aren't allowed to be traded here.
As a note, 6 IV shiny Mews are always 100% hacked, as is shiny 6 IV Jirachis.
Me and Tabor both have, just in PMs to people who ask or offer it. We're working on something to let everyone know about hacks and what to look out for though. Just so much to do D:
Gosh you guys are like reading our minds. Are you spying on us or something? D:
Are Dream World Pokemon locked to not being Shiny or something? I do remember that Arceus was some sort of DW Event.Speaking of event shinies... I really wish Azure Flute was obtainable so we could have shiny Arceus running around...

And speaking of events, let's say I where to play a Gen 4 game and use the Walk Through Walls code and get to Shaymin... then I caught said Shaymin. Would the Shaymin be considered a hack even if nothing was done to the Shaymin itself?
All Pokémon gained directly from the Dream World are Shiny Locked.
Yes this website considers it a hack if hacking takes place at any time while you are gaining the Pokémon.
For once, the US gets things dead last. Lucky Aussies and Europeans. I throw kangaroos at thee!
