Topic: How far back can Bank detect hacked Pokemon?

[Petzbreeder]

Sorry to ask about hacked Pokemon again (Last time I asked about a theoretical Sylveon with Explosion) but I need to know if other people can get perfect IV Ditto through Bank.

Can Pokemon Bank detect hacked Pokemon if they were hacked in a game that came out before Black and White?

What I mean is, if I caught a legitimate Ditto in Heart Gold in the route north of the day care and altered the IVs (with Pokesav) to be perfect, would Bank detect it or does it only detect Pokemon that were hacked in gen 5?

I've been wanting a perfect IV Ditto for a while and I'm hopeless at doing the RNG thing.

I've read on other forums that other people have made perfect IV Ditto in Black/White but they did not say whether it got through Bank or not.

I should really get out of a habit of doing this!

Probably not. IVs are determined by the time you start the game and other factors, so hacking something like this might not work. Then again, I'm no expert at how the bank works so maybe not. I'd just make a ditto from B/W, since that'll go through most of the time if you do it properly.

^Then if that doesn't go through, then try HG/SS, it'll likely work there.

Transferring a Pokemon from Heart Gold (even blatantly hacked ones!) to Bank seems to work perfectly.

I made 6 Ditto, each with 5 perfect IVs (the 6th IV is 0) and aside from my difficulty with connecting to the Bank server, they transferred without any problems.

I'll have to see if a Ditto with perfectly flawless IVs can transfer next!
It would be interesting if I could transfer a Ditto with all IVs at 0 too!

[Hahex and Oshawott]

I would imagine any IV spread would work.

I just hacked a male Japanese HP Fire Snivy with Overgrow and Glare on White 2 and it transferred just fine. I'm just going to use it for breeding.
