I see. I'll keep Suicune buried in my Bank then. I was mostly concerned about the Celebi, because even if its IVs and nature aren't useful, it's still from an old event, so if it's authentic that's a plus for me (because collection).
I want to check my Suicune when I get home. I have one just like that, which I RNGed when it first came out. Can't remember what mine's OT IS is though. Yours could be legal.
It depends how they were downloaded from Pokécheck. If they have the Classic Ribbon (and they were not supposed to) then they are "improperly cloned" and may not be traded here. If they were downloaded from Pokécheck in some other manner then fine.
Thanks, that answers my question perfectly. :)
Hacked.

I'm gonna go with possibly legit. Spread and nature appear to be possible and Fateful encounter wild Shaymin was available in Platinum. It might be a RNGed one with a close as perfect spread, I dunno.
The ID# and Egg Obtained and Hatched dates seem a little too perfect to me, it seems as if they were genned and the person genning them didn't bother to fill in any of that information, leaving it as default. Aside from that, all of the other info is technically possible, but yeah, the ID# and egg info seems pretty sketchy to me.
Moltres is quite possibly a hack, since it is quite rare to find 6 IV legends while SRing (though not impossible). Letting us know where you got it would help a lot (if it's Wonder Trade or from a random passerby, it's probably a hack).
The same Shaymin was hack checked here, and was stated to be a hack; so proceed with caution.
Seems doubtful that it's legitimate. 10000 seems like something someone would enter if typing, and 1/1/2015 is the default for an application which could do this sort of thing.
If it's the same one as here, definitely hacked.
Please find the IVs, these are important in hack checking.OP said:
After I check, it's someone else who trade it to me (from GTS against Polar Vivillon I put)
I put back the Articuno.
Then my guess would be that it is one that someone downloaded from the link I posted before and consequently a hack.
If it's possible you've found the IVs incorrectly [Pokémon could have EVs], or have assumed any values when the calculator gave them as ranges, then it may be fine (as it seems unlikely someone would hack those particular IVs onto a Pokémon).
It's funny how far you went just for a crappy Articuno :)
Well, yes... But that would have nothing to do with not finding it on that search given I searched a pretty narrow range of IVs.
Yes, iirc it edits some of the pokemon's data to make it hatch quicker, but I have seen a couple of pokemon at Pokéguy 's thread from EV which notes that it was used.
afaik, it sets the remaining hatch cycle of the egg to 0, so it will hatch on the next step no matter what. (This is different from manually prewalking the egg, as you can't walk an egg to 0 hatch cycles: the lowest you can get it is 1. Even if you prewalked it so that on your game, it would only take one step to hatch, if you traded it or put it in the PC, the steps would reset to 1 hatch cycle.) It's editing your Pokemon and isn't allowed on r/SVExchange, and while I'm not 100% on this, I've heard it mentioned that it makes the egg 'legal but not legit', so it's not allowed here.
Thanks! I figured that was the case but I wanted to make sure anyway. :P
