So, I know all about what Powersaving is other than I don't actually do it myself. I greatly despise it actually. I have gotten several 6IV shiny Pokemon with the Pentagon that I have known to be Powersaved. Now, my question is if a Groudon (from Omega Ruby) that was traded to me has been Powersaved or not. It is untouched at level 45, it has the same OT as the person I got it from (namewise anyways no idea about the number). It also has 6 perfect IVs which, seems kinda fishy. He is not shiny though, and most 6IV Powersaved Pokemon are also shiny. So did I just get really lucky in getting a 6IV Legend from someone or is it likely edited? I know Legends in 6th gen always have at least 3 perfect IVs so I'm not sure what to believe. What do you guys think?

What's it's nature and I'm pretty sure legends can have more than 3ivs and what's the ot
 
Where did you get the Groudon from? As Greninja said, what's its nature?

Yeah, I've gotten a couple with 4IVs before. The OT is Dan 57281, and it's nature is Hasty.

I got him from the GTS which is mainly why I'm asking hardly anything good comes out of the GTS, but sometimes it does.

Hasty raises its speed at the cost of defense so it could be legit or hack 50/50

I'm leaning toward no on this one. Adamant is a much better nature for Groudon. A hacked one would not try to remove Defense from a tank-ish type Pokemon.

Yeah I figured as much. It not being shiny helps convince me it might be legit, but Groudon's shiny is pretty ugly (in my opinion) and they could have just edited his stats. But yeah there's still the slim chance that it just happened to be 6IV. Not likely but hey. Thanks for your opinion. :)
 
I think it's legit. Cause if it wasnt they would've tried for a better nature. Plus story legendaries aka groudon, kyogre, rayquaza, and deoxys are shiny locked. They cant be shiny
 
It's probably legit. People who powersave are pickier about natures, and I think that they would have tried to get a shiny Groudon. Even if it's not the best-looking shiny, plenty of people aim for shinies because they're rare, so that would have made more sense.

OP said that it wasnt shiny to begin with.
if you have a serebii forum account, you could always post in the hack-check thread or post full details so that the more knowledgeable people there can figure it out.

I totally forgot about that, thanks! I'll post there and see what they say. Thanks for all your opinions though. I appreciate it. :)
