>>29865239>Yes I do. The same EXACT info from the PK6 goes to gen 7. That's how it works. Nothing is converted at all. But believe what you want.Not him, and I was actually going to argue the same point you are, but then I realized he might actually be right. You're operating under the assumption that, if gen 6 native Pikachu/Cubone/Exeggcute were meant to evolve into their old forms, this would be determined by their met location.
This would certainly be the sensible way to handle it, but this is Game Freak we're talking about. What if retrieving those Pokémon from Bank on a gen 7 game sets some currently unknown flag that tells the game that the Pokémon should evolve into its non-Alolan form?
Since Bank itself does the conversion and the PKHeX developers have no way of knowing this until Bank is updated, the conversion that PKHeX does is incomplete and thus produces Pokémon without the necessary flag.
All we know is that the file format is roughly the same, but things like Hyper Training for example make gen 7 Pokémon not backwards-compatible, even if it's an old Pokémon with old moves. We know about the Hyper Training flags because we can access Hyper Training in-game, but we can't legitimately transfer Pokémon yet, and thus don't know how the gen 6 -> 7 conversion actually affects the Pokémon's data. You're assuming everything stays the same, but you can't know that for sure.
