>>30727762> If the celebi is generated in the game, the information is correct, and it is legit.It is generated in an emulated version of the game. Most people would say that disqualifies it as legit.
>Whether the software running the emulates game is official or not is irrelevant to the legitimacy of ANY of the Pokemon obtained through it.This is false. Sure, your unsuspecting trade victim might not know the Pokémon was obtained through unofficial softward/hardware and is thus not legit, but that is still objectively the case here. Not legit is not legit, period.
>I emulates Fire Red, and pal parked all my mons over the HG on a flashcard, then to a hard copy of Platinum through trade, to B2, and through bank to OR.All the Pokémon from the flashcard are not legit. Your point???
> If the celebi is generated in the game, the information is correct, and it is legit. That doesn't exactly mean legal. In both the Jap and US bonus discs, there are 9 possible shiny seeds, despite the shiny check, and GF have chosen to view them as non legal.If gamefreak fucked up and doesn't recognize their own legitimately obtainable Pokémon as legal, that still doesn't make a hacked version legit. Your whole tangent is unrelated to the issue at hand.
>>30727827>no one is gonna ask for redemption proof on an event that has noneYou would be surprised, but in this case a simple photo of all the hardware used plus the Japanese Colosseum+Bonus disc and 3rd gen game would suffice. A photo of the actual moment of redemption and transfer stages would possibly be required as well to allay any doubts.
>your version of legitimacy is entirely subjective, as your version of legitimacy has to do with how the player obtained the Pokemon, and nothing to do with the coding.Legit is shorthand for "legitimate". My definition, which is shared by most of the community, is actually entirely objective and leaves no room for interpretation. What the pokémon obtained entirely by official means? Legit
