Official "is this a hacked Pokemon?" Thread

I've been seeing a surge of these threads popping up lately, and I think it'd be best if they were all summed up into one thread, rather than a bunch of little threads with one comment.

Hey CrystalLaser , I would suggest adding to template, the level it is now, the place caught, and if it is shiny. It could help some people. =)

Awsomness, Opps sorry. D:

1. Yes, I got it from the GTS.
2.Opps, I meant "hatched from a egg"
3.Err, Gen 4. Heart Gold, if that helps. =)

I said Gen 4, not sure if thats what you mean. Charizard's Summary has nothing to say about what Gen it came from. Yep, it was german, but once leveled up to Charizard, its name went to English.
And, the reason that got me wondering if it was hacked was because it levels up so fast. Could that help?

Thanks Awsomness! ^__^

Btw, I have a question if thats alright. I got an GTS Eevee, that I got at level 1. But I know its hacked. (due to the pokeball) Its now level 87. Would it being hacked at level 1 cause it to being different?

No problem!
And not to be a grammar freak. But you said "Level is is now:" on the template...

Awsomness if it hatched from the egg, it doesn't matter what route it was at because it should be able to hatch anywhere!

Cloud Me that charizard looks alright. Probably legal at least. If you have a way of getting it on file I'll happily check it properly for you if you'd like, though it's not exactly necessary.

Arceus can only be shiny if caught at the Hall of Origin.

If this Arceus you're showing is an Event Pokemon, it cannot be shiny. If it is, it's a hack.
In addition, Gen4/5 Event Pokemon come in Cherish Balls, so if it's in some other ball such as Pokeball, it's a hack as well.

As for moves, it's alright to have only Solarbeam as the moves can be deleted through the Move Deleter, and Solarbeam can be learned as TM for Arceus.
