::I think what might be going on here is something going wrong with Pokémon obtained via injected PKM. The games keep lots of hidden records, including data on when and how Pokémon are met. Maybe Transporter checks more than just the Pokémon itself; perhaps it checks with the save file to see how that Pokémon arrived in the game. It would make sense of what BigBadBatter said about how his Ditto imported from a PKM file wouldn't work but it did for his friend. It's possible his friend's game created a record of that Ditto arriving "legitimately" through a trade whereas his own game had no such record due to being imported directly. It might also explain why some event Pokémon seem blocked, since those are very commonly imported through hacking. Someone on /vp/ was giving away a TRU Arceus, and he confirmed to me that TRU Arceus is not blocked, contrary to many reports. The reports likely stem from the possible issue I just outlined.[[User:Shugo|Shugo]] ([[User talk:Shugo|talk]]) 07:01, 5 March 2014 (UTC) | ::I think what might be going on here is something going wrong with Pokémon obtained via injected PKM.

:::I'm Pokedit's Head Moderater and a .pkm legality specialist, and I can say this, the game keeps no such records. When and how they were met is in the .pkm's memo data, and can be easily edited. I have passed a lot of injected and edited .pkm files, because all the parameters were legal. All the event pokemon I've attempted to get in were completely unedited, and 100% legal (used pokecheck to confirm this, but don't have a link to the .pkm, sorry). I've also recently tested with another friend identical Arceus and Shaymin .pkms. Theirs passed and mine didn't. Remember that really badly hacked pokemon have been able to pass bank, whilst some legit ones can't. I say it's just really bad programming on GF's part. Also Shugo, I am a girl XD----[[User:BigBadBatter|<span style="color:red">Big</span>]][[User talk:BigBadBatter|<span style="color:#870735">Bad</span>]][[User:BigBadBatter|<span style="color:red">Batter</span>]] 21:31, 5 March 2014 (UTC) | :::I'm Pokedit's Head Moderater and a .pkm legality specialist, and I can say this, the game keeps no such records.

::::I meant the other details that the game apparently keeps regarding Pokémon, unless that's also kept in the PKM. (I don't know much about the PKM format.) I recall there being a guy in Black/White you could talk to who would tell you a bunch of extra details about a Pokémon, like what Pokémon fought it before it was caught or who it was traded from (even if that person isn't the OT). I can't remember where in the game he is, though. That made me think that the game keeps extra hidden data on a Pokémon. Surely there must be ''some'' reason for why the same Pokémon doesn't pass for some people but does for others. It can't just be 'bad programming'; I can't think of how they'd mess up creating a simple set of checks, checks that should be the same for everybody. Something must be tripping the checks for one person but not the other, and I'm thinking it's the person's game. If you have the ability, could you try trading one of these Pokémon that won't pass (but will for your friends) to another of your games and then attempting to transfer? If that doesn't work then my theory weakens. | |||
::::For the record, though, I'm not denying that it could be Transporter actually being terrible. I just find it unlikely. [[User:Shugo|Shugo]] ([[User talk:Shugo|talk]]) 21:50, 8 March 2014 (UTC) | |||
