I bought omega ruby today and the game came with a bunch of shiny pokemons
how to know if they real or hacked ?
i would screen shot but mii screenshot got an x on the picture :(
over 60+
and it got cosplay pikachu shiny so most of them if not all are hacked i guess (some do have crap nature like shiny charizard bold)
Check if they have a polygon icon next to their stamps/shiny star, newer pokemon versions use it to check if the pokemon is hacked, sometimes it doesn't work but I recommend to check it.
This isn't a good method of checking anymore, since the Pentagon icon can be hacked too.
Good hacks are actually much rarer than easy to spot ones. The icon is just one of the many things you can easily check, like Location Met, Poké Ball, Event Tags, IVs, etcYeah but still it's one of the things I'd firstly look at. Oterhwise you can't check if it's hacked, hackers can create pokemon with all legit traits.

Shiny Zygarde is illegal, no matter the Pokéball. So all Shiny Zygarde are hacks.The pokeball can't prove it's hacked, eg. you obtained the ball from a hacker and used it to catch a pokemon you own. That doesn't make the actuall mon a hacked one.
But I admit a shiny Zygarde in a cherish ball would be suspicious. :D
