If you could legally have the stats they can't detect it.

I will not edit the stats just the nature and the abilities. Is it legal?

If it could have those legally, yes.

Rough Skin is the Hidden Ability of Gabite.
So,it should be legal.

You might get banned since they might notice edited save file. I wouldn't play around with it. Rather breed new one.

If it's an ability you could get by just playing the game/breeding then it's legal.

Thanks for enlightening me

No it's not illegal.

Gabite is hard to find in USUM. Finding a H.A one is a pain in the butt.

But can they detect it?

If hacked pkmn are all over GTS I have a strong feeling you'll be fine nothing to be paranoid over. Never heard of anyone getting banned for save editing

 

[Virdoo]

Why should you look for new one if you have one already? Just breed it with Ditto and you should get it pretty easy.

 

[Hallowing]

I am pretty sure that if the parent Pokemon doesn't have the hidden ability then the eggs have no chance of getting it. Either he sos chains or just edits his pokemon

If i want to hatch a guaranteed H.A pokemon, its female parent must have the H.A. The way you mentioned only works with pokemon which has dual normal abilities.

If your playing in a championship or some kind of regional thing or whatever,Then they can possibly find out if you made a mistake on editing it and have it set to a faithful encounter.There are little edits that still go through on a pokemons summary,but aren't supposed to be there.Thats how they detect it.If you edit a mon perfectly to a T,then you probably won't be detected at all.

I use PKSM to edit my mon. According to what i saw, it edits perfectly. Btw what does T stand for? Sorry for the late response.

Doing something to a T is an expression that means doing something perfectly/correctly
