I'm a little confused by the definition of hacking, but I would assume that anything modified by a gameshark way back in gen 3 (for IV modification after capture) would be considered a hack, correct?

I suppose it's safe to assume then that the legendaries you see around with perfect IV's or perfect sets for a certain hidden power have been RNG'd then?
Also, thank you for the confirmation. I had a number of mons modified by gameshark from years earlier, and I wanted to make sure I shouldn't be passing them around.
Just wanted to check if these are hacked:

"Seems to have travelled across both time and space to the Kalos region from the Johto region"
(Nearly 99% sure its hacked because of the ID but just wanted confirmation)

Sylveon is hacked, can you give more information on Venusaur?
What is its ability, ball, and moves?
Cheers.
Actually, I forgot to say that it's female.
You can get perfect females in HGSS right?
Yeah...
I'd like to know if this thing is legal (even if i'm pretty sure its illegal for obvious reasons, specially for that fishy SID); but i'd like that a more professional hand can confirm it (i miss Pokécheck's shoutbox for legality checking questions. :c).

Thanks. I was also going to ask about the legality of this one (forgot to put the link in my previous post), this is the one with the fishy SID; can you tell me about it?

Both are really bad hacks, the OT Kurt one is a really stupid edit of https://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=709844, the other one is just a normal hack by someone that doesn't know what they're doing.
Are you sure? I'm fairly certain that Emerald is what introduced the nature sync to stationary pokemon, legendaries at least.
K, that clarifies everything, thanks Dark Ray!
Actually he's right, in Emerald Synchronize only works on Wild Pokémon, while stationaries aren't affected by it, unlike in later gens.
Oh! Wild pokemon only, that makes sense :p thanks!
Is this a likely hack? I've only been given face information before trading for it

It may be legal, don't really have enough information to go on.
Yes, really obvious one. He could have called it "Hack" and it still would have been just as obvious.
Thanks for bringing that up.
