4th Gen having legit pokemon

[darkrai491master]

how do you tell which pokemon are legit or not like for example events

 

[Dr.Stiles]

hmmmm...for events check the fc if its not right then its hacked
or from the place it was caught and maybe its moveset ooooh stats too


XD hope that helps

If you are ever in question of whether it is legit or not and you cannot decide for yourself, you can ask in this thread.

You can pretty much figure it out though by where it was caught, moveset, stats, and most times ID number.

Legitimacy can easily be determined unless the hacker is smart, for instence I just got a hacked Quagsire off the GTS, it's in a Master ball, but funny thing it was "caught in the Great Marsh..."

If you have any knowledge of what features and attributes Pokemon have, you automatically recognize a hack. For example, any event Pokemon caught in a Cherish Ball, must have a Classic Ribbon. I got a Mew that was caught in a Cherish Ball, but didn't have a Classic Ribbon. Aeon already posted a link to the Hacked Pokemon thread, so just go there and post all info about the suspected Pokemon.

or, if you want to be precise, download Pokesav and use an R4 to upload your data. Then check the Secret ID etc, along with everything else, and usually you can get the idea. If the pokemon has a Secret ID of 00000, then it is hacked, and most will if they are hacked, because many people don't know their own Secret ID. :)

We already have a thread for asking if your Pokémon is hacked or not. Besides, regarding events, there's a sticky thread on the Wireless Trade Corner that helps you determine which are hacked and which are legit.
