The thing is, anyone with half a brain could just gen them in 5 minutes and pass them off as legit. Or they could have a genned Pokemon without knowing. Without any way to tell, it's impossible to tell which is legit or not. That's why I'm not going to trade any Pokemon without pentagon; I have no need to use anything other than what I have in my Black 2 right now.
 
Where can I get these legendaries you all have stored in your games hmm?

*grabs everyone's games and runs*

I think most people traded their own legendaries as the seed so to speak. Then just kept recycling. I managed to snag the Gen II starters for peanuts(Totodile I traded a Ditto for, Chikorita I snagged for a level 1 Gen VI starter). This was when bank first came out in Japan, and not everyone was being greedy yet. I also ended up with a Chimchar via wondertrade. Early on people were offering their X/Y legendaries and only asking in return for level 1 starters from Gen II through Gen V.... I bred like mad and kept snagging every extra Legendary I could.... then was turning those around and offering them up for the previous Gen legends. Once I learned to clone, it got easier because I started cloning my legends.

That said.... I'm only missing a small handfull (other than event exclusives). At the moment I only have two clones left, (A Ho-oh and a Darkrai), but could take some time to clone some of the others.... Cloning this gen is a bit of a drag, so I am trying not to do too much more of it.... Drop me a PM or VM, as I am sure we can work something out that would help you out with some legendaries.
 
Can someone explain to me what the point is in having certain Pokemon in certain Pokeballs? I've seen people trading away shiny competitive Pokemon for bank Pokemon that are not competitive but in older balls on other sites. I just don't get the hype around this.

It's merely a reason of aesthetics. We like matching or pretty pokeballs :P (especially the apricorn ones.)

It's pure novelty. I honestly prefer all of mine caught in Premier balls or Dream Balls. Some people like a ball that matches the color of the Pokemon.

It is LIKELY that if they are trading for a female it is so they can breed a competetive Pokemon that is in that ball(since now the ball the hatched Pokemon is in matches the one the female was in).

People who are willing to trade away a Pokemon that they spent hours breeding and/or trying to catch, just for a different Pokeball may be a little extreme. But they certainly can do what they choose.

The only way that I believe this is every helpful REALLY is if you are looking for Pokemon that evolve based on Friendship and you want them in a luxury ball. Other than that, it is pure choice on some people's part.
 
Well since my last one got such bad reviews, XD.

Go ahead then, though I want to know where you found that shiny animation on your sig.
 
Hola amigos! Que pasa?

(yay for being born half Cuban)

Translation of above: Hey friends! What's up?

At school right now and extremely bored so PC is where I'm at. :D Forgot to mention yesterday, but...
I COMPLETED MY OWN VIVILLION COLLECTION! Yes I know I'm late but, I was only collecting Scatterbugs I got from Wonder Trade and evolving them and I thought I'll see what I have and I ended up missing only 2 patterns which I got off the GTS for Xerneas and Yveltal woot. Now what do I do with them? D:
 
560 in my National Dex, so i'm around 80% of the way there. :D

Unfortunately, I only have one 3DS with me at the moment, because I shipped off my red regular sized one to get modded for that capture card. So i'm gonna need help to get the trade evolutions!
 
flare you know where to go for help :P lol #tradecorner is a great place to get help with tradebacks and free goodies and all. No one takes my freebies though :(
 
hmmm is a shiny suicune from "kanto" legit? its pretty suspicious :| it has decent stats on all IVs as kiloude iv checker says

ot is japanese but pokemon is english
 
Shiny Kanto Suicune is possible because of HGSS. The OT/nickname thing is suspicious, though. I would suggest looking for it in pokecheck's database and check it's legality analysis. :)

EDIT: If you PM the OT, ID and Nickname I can check it for you.
 
What nature is it and what is the OT/ID? And by that do you mean it has 6 IVs that are 31s?
 
OT: 2 or 3 japanese characters

ID: 40116

and the kiloude iv checker says decent. So its not all 31
 
The language differences has me thinking it's hacked although a shiny Suicine is possible from HG/SS.
 
It could be a suicune obtained from a translated rom, which would make it illegal.
