If you trade someone GTS or reg, how do you know if it's a fake/hacked pokemon?
If it has perfect IVs then its most likely Hacked, also if they used poke creator then most people don't try to cover their tracks, so if the OT is "PCAPP" then its hacked, also if it has egg moves and wasn't hatched then its hacked, that's what i usually do, there is alot more you can do, but it requires to go into extreme detail
Perfect IVs mean it could be IV bred or RNGed
true, but most people i have traded with don't ever tell me they have IV Bred pokemon
if they mention the perfect IV pokemon, then yeah, its a higher chance that it is legit.
but if they dont even mention its perfect IV and it is, than its probably hacked.
thanks for mentioning that, i never really think about the IV Bred pokemon
