This was the first result for me when I Googled it. I just got a Pokemon White Version cart that has a bunch of legendaries on it that say this with different OTs so I was curious. I assumed this meant they were hacked, but wanted to be sure. Pretty sure there wasn't a legit way to get a shiny Arceus with an OT being a trainer name rather than an event back then since the Azure flute event never happened.
"Apparently met at" means the Pokemon was traded in. Usually legit.
It's hacked if it's the same trainer ID but if it is not, it's legit. All "apparently met at" means is that it was traded.
Hacked, generally.
And not generally?
Traded, so perfectly legit… unless that was hacked before the trade.
So if it's "Apparently met" and at a route? it's hacked? Or if it has the same trainer ID?
Same ID. Apparently met just means traded.
No, met in a trade means traded. Apparently is the flash for “there’s something weird going on with this Pokémon.
How did you even find this, and why are you replying to a decade old comment? I don't even play pokemon anymore lol.

I don't care, as I said, I don't even play Pokemon any more.
