That 386 game is definitely legit. That Shiny Zigzagoon came from an event to fix the berry glitch. The Makuhita/Hariyama was probably cloned, but that's just a glitch in Emerald (no hacks required). And last of all, Jirachi is easy to get if you have the means to.

I know I’m gonna enjoy this video, makes me sad that after 4 years I still cannot find a legitimate copy of Pokémon Sapphire that’s not being sold for over $300.

8:07 I love the "uppies please" Grimer. It's heart-warming

10:56 thats the same Trainer ID Number as my childhood emerald save... wtf

!! That Shiny event Eevee...... I bought a japanese SoulSilver that also had one! According the event card on the file it came from the very first championship event that year, in Chiba if I remember right

I still stand with my original theory of the "hacked" save - think its a mixed bag of shiny hunter, trading and hacks. The multiple mythicals could be from the gifted events?? Im not too familiar with them though~ Still fun to see!

Glad to see me calling out the mball on charizard made it in, it was funny that it was holding one.

That shiny mew is legitimate. It has been transfered over from the Emerald farraway event. Gen3 en 4 games show only the small text: Obtained in trade, met at level this and that stuff

Shiny Mew can be real there, from the Japanese even for Emerald for the Old Sea Map. It was the only time you could shiny hunt Mew.

When i worked at a mall, had a friend who worked at gamestop and everytime a pokemon game was traded in we always checked to see what they had, alot of hacked shayman n darkrai

the shiny mew, if it was caught in emerald and then sent up via the pal park, wouldnt it show that level? I recon it possibly could be legit

When I was younger I thought I could surprise trade a pokemon from one game to another game, and I wanted my deoxys on another game, so I surprise traded my deoxys and somebody was probably really happy to get a deoxys for there zigzagoon, they probably thought it was hacked lol

Fun fact, the shiny Pichu was an event pokemon given away on diamond, platinum and pearl. From there you could trade it to HeartGold or SoulSilver, take it to the shrine in Ilex forest (as your party leader) and a spiky eared Pichu would appear and join your team.

11:29 I just got to the part in the video with the machop trainer. I laughed to tears.

You cant trade rhe spikey eared pichu. The Moment you get it, it's locked to your save.

I still am flabbergasted some used game shops sell old school pokemon diamond for 80 plus dollars if not hundreds..... Ans thats without thr box or papers

Honestly if the mew was caught from the faraway island event from shiny hunting (which is insane if it was) and then sent up via pal park it’s feasible since I think it shows the level it was received from pal park not it’s original level (which would be 30) so that shiny mew could have been legit.

There is a DNS server maintained by fans that resurrected a bunch of old events that you can do even today, including the pikachu coloured Pichu, the spiky eared Pichu and the legendary beasts. The shiny eevee is also and I believe WCS is World Championships. Yes, those all likely came from that server.

Ayyyy 13:46 that shiny Geodude was caught on my bday 🙏🏿🙏🏿

that shiny pichu is an event mon from diamond/pearl i think. it lets you do an in-game event in hg/ss to get the special spiky-eared pichu. edit: oh yeah, confirmed by the other pichu! thats how they got that spiky eared one.

Loved this video, nice and relaxing compared to other exploration videos. much more up my alley.

14:43 Man's got a MIDI track for a name, that's incredible

You can only collect 3 Wonder Cards. If you get a 4th you have to delete one. So those three that had them doesn’t mean the others aren’t legit

I used to love going through a save file when I bought a game

All the event mysticals and especially the spiky ear pichu are crazy! Congrats bro

reminded me of when i went on a buying spree on mercari and decided to pick up a japanese copy of soulsilver it had a bunch of events lying around and also a jirachi left in the pokewalker instead of deleting the save file i decided to use it for shiny hunting and also doing the trainer card challenge on their save file too

Geodude and onyx were my first shinys before I even knew shinys existed. I was like wow. I got gold ones cool

Just had this appear in my recommended box! It's such a cool idea and I'd love to do the same with my childhood copies etc. What equipment are you using to stream your consoles as I noticed you using what looked like a pro controller at points!

While I was in Japan i bought a copy of sapphire and found a Jirachi on it. I was more than happy.

Yk i remember going to gamestop to get my shiny suicune and its still on my soul silver. I love that game

I got a legit ruby game with all shiny pokemon. Even legendaries and event legendary pokemon you can miss. Safe to say im glad i have it because im working on filling out all Pokedex entries in all gameboy advance Pokemon games.

That was great!! These basically a relic of the past now. Why would someone give them up? Great video, looking forward to more

Don’t know why but I found this rly satisfying. Subscribed

that holder you have, i so want one.

Man, this is really making me want to go to Japan and get some sweet deals on Pokémon games haha. Maybe someday

those event shiny pichus would make such cool alolan raichus

Imagine spending 240hrs+ building a living dex only for someone to call it hacked 😂

Once I slipped up and left a shiny Crobat in a copy of AS that I sold back to a GameStop. I hope whoever got that cartridge checked before and found a nice surprise

Some people me included make there pokemon hold the masterball so we dont waste it on anything by accident

I really hope whoever got my save file for pokémon y checked it out and saved them before resetting the file. Someone broke into my house and stole my 3ds and pokémon y and i never saw it again. Multiple boxes of shinies etc.

That shiny Zigzagoon with Pokerus wasn’t hacked that’s a Pokémon that gets injected into the save when you had your 1.0 cart upgraded to 1.1 to fix the berry glitch.

Japanese files are a gold mine for how cheap they are compared to the US. I bought copies of Sapphire, Platinum, and all the gen 5 games and got a lot of legit rare Pokemon from in real life distribution events and mystery gifts.

In HeartGold and SoulSilver you could only have three event cards from your mystery gift before you had to delete one to receive a new gift. It wasn't increased until black and white.

I bought a copy of pokemon HG a while ago and it had someone's original file from 2010 still on it. Still had the event Arceus!

Thanks for making this. I cant remember if i watched the full segment or not. Ill rewatch it if i did. Also, i tried this for heart gold. I saw that price tag and went back and forth before finally buying it. I was hoping for shines.. but the guy who had it before didn't get in that far. But i deleted the save data and did my own run, debating on if i should play it as a nuzlocke or not. After My cynaquil fainted i was like "good thing I'm not playing a nuzlocke." Edit: that machop line save reminded me of my first platinum save. I basically bred all the Eeveelutions and then only have them on my team. This one kid was watching me play from the seat behind me and asked 'you really like Eevee don't you?' I said "yeah, they are so cute, isn't it cool?" The kid replied 'no, thats just dumb' and sat back down. I never used a full Eeveelution team until the crown tundra dlc.

You know it's gonna be good when the first OT is "ASSHOLE" 😂😂

i used to be a pokemon breeder in Pearl for couple of forums, i had boxes on boxes full on untradeble pokemons, due to their nature not being desired at all

i found a shiny dratini while watching this in SS 5x hunting at the game corner took 3,090 seen 618 SR’s thanks for the luck!

Had a emerald cartridge that my brother lost, had a legit shiny latias and a good chunk of others. Miss that lati.

I am 100% confident that the save at 11:00 is legit, the Berry Fix Zigzagoon is nice to see, and I assume they'd have Ageto Celebi, and the Beasts/Ho-Oh and Lugia from the Orre games

For the contest, they should have added psd, or clip files with their final render.

Hope you're having a good day

You got all these games in Japan my dude those 3 jirachi are definitely real back in the gen 3 era there was a Japan only movie tie in event disk for the GameCube that had repeatable jirachi

Charizard holding master ball was most likely him migrating with hacked in masterballs?

10:34 Is that the make up Zigzagoon from the event that removed some bug in Ruby and Sapphire back in the day?

should have checked the dex for the shiny machop line

Alot of event pokemon are still available if you set your DNS to a fan-made server

Like what? Missingno? 😂

MEW "came from hoenn region"

You can actually get a shiny mew in emerald! Maybe it was transferred from emerald. The event mew is level 30 so it isn’t out of the question for it to have been leveled up by 4 levels and then transferred :)

Check the daycares

This was cool. I’d like to see another.

Man, there's an shop that sells Platinum (PAL version) over 90 bucks. I mean, it's a good deal, it's not fake or anything.

Most hacked Pokémon come default in cherish balls.

If you brought the event shiny pichu to the shrine in the ilex forest it triggered an in game event for the spike eares pichu

26:40 that tropius was migrated from hoenn and when you migrat a pokemon the level will be equal to the level when you migrat it so he basically trauned tropius up to 100 than transfered it

EVENT SHINY EEVEE! I used to collect Event Pokemon. This hurts my heart. I lost them all.

im not sure if you know but in the gen 4 games you could only have 3 wonder cards at a time! you would have to delete one if you wanted to get a new event pokemon. which would be why that one save only had 3 of the cards but more than that in event pokemon. i do think it was a legitimate one (its the save that had the eevee and stuff im talking about)

I have a shiny Italian event Raikou in SV right now…I wonder how many are still out there in the world.

10:49 this file could be legit, that zigzagoon is given to you if you did the thing to fix the berry glitch, and they could’ve just cloned the makuhita through glitches (no hacks required)

Dank je wel voor de video! 🇳🇱

I think that the game that only had the bulbasaur was a scrapped shiny hunt.

PEETAH

Gen 4 Shiny event Pokémon can be given by exploiting your WiFi DNS settings. They are not hard to get whatsoever

where is the shirt from that you are wearing in this video i love it

are you transferring these pokemon to other save files, or are you keeping them intact, or just resetting over them?

My platinum team was the legendary birds infernape and Pokémon for hms obviously

26:40 Why do people say the met level of the Tropis is sus lol. The met level gets set to current level when you transfer Pokémon from gen 3. Unless the game of origin is gen 4, at worst this was leveled up using rare candies obtained through the Emerald cloning glitch.

You have so many games

Wait is this live right now?

Calm’s in his nickeh30 arc

There are people with full living shiny dex's does not mean they are cheating

I would prefer the shiny charizard than other shiny because of blackness of it

Hopefully someone in the comments can help me out 🤞🏻 If someone was to loan me their DS with bank and transporter pre installed (as it’s no longer downloadable) is it possible to transfer Pokémon up through from my HGSS file to Switch/Home? I have so many Pokemon stuck I would love to save! Thanks in advance 😁

may i ask how much money you spend on these games, i like to know because my friend and i are planning to make a trip to japan and we wanna know how much a game cost. You dont have to anwser if you dont want too, still thanks.

What console are you using to load up those games?

In Pokemon fire red I have a shiny arbok named snake that took me 8 incounters to get

can you not have only 3 wondercards at the same time in those old games?? i believe you need to trash wondercards to even recieve new events if you have 3 already. probably why there were only 3 wondercards present

Oh no, a bad word, oh the pain

I bought some animal crossing games for my DS on Amazon a few years ago and I think it was wild world. Anyways the towns name was (insert bad three letter word for gay) city and was like nope not living there and deleted it.

why would a box of machops irritate u this much? if u try to get it with the right nature and a certain level of IVs, u gotta breed n hatch a bunch. my fire red safe looks the same xd

just curious how were you playing the gba and ds games on the pc. i'm looking to get the same device for myself

Who drew the thumbnail?

Please make video how to tell if games are legit if you haven’t already 🙏

I am sure someone has already said this, but in gen 4 you could only hold 3 event cards at a time, so the eevee is probably legit they just had to delete the card to get the other events

How to do play pokemon gba games with your switch controller?

How expensive are japanis games ?

How are you doing the stuff in the top left of your stream layout?

4:20-5:30 question, what’s the name of the instrumental background music playing between these timestamps? Can anyone recommend it, cuz I really like it!

I love these streams, your bank account tho
