Re: Guide: How to Transfer Pokémon from Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow to Pokémon Sun and Moon

Some things to keep in mind:

1) All mons will get their Hidden Ability if they have one.
2) All mons will get 3 perfect IV guaranteed. Mew gets 5.
3) Glitched Mew and Missingno can't be transferred. Other mons obtained with glitches may be transferrable.
4) If Missingno is in Box 1, the names of all mons after it will get switched around on transfer.
5) Nature is chosen based on EXP. Here's a table that includes this information: http://serebii.net/games/natures.shtml

The poison mushrooms have a different color pallette (it's also demonstrated in the short demo sequence at the title screen), and the reverse warp zones all feature a pit so that you can escape (by intentionally losing a life) if you don't want to go back to a previous world. That said, sometimes, looping back to an early world over and over can be a good idea to rack up a lot of extra lives for later levels.

What can I say? The original SMB doesn't challenge me anymore. The Lost Levels does. And I like that very much.

Actually, there are subtle differences between "hacker" and "dataminer". These two words are not exactly interchangeable.

Generally speaking, a hacker's goal is to take over a computer process and/or system, to make it do things that weren't intended by the original developers. A dataminer, however, only parses through computer files in search of hidden data relevant to their interests.
