Why can't I trade my Genesect on the GTS?

Question

I wanted to trade it away, but after a minute a message would come up saying that this Pokemon cannot be traded. Then I looked to see if any other Genesect's were being traded away, but there were none. What's up?

Answer 1

That is because your Genesect is obviously Hacked, as it has been released yet. Hacked Pokemon can not be traded over the GTS.

Ohhhhhh....Thanks =)

Yeah, I think the only reason they check to see if your Pokemon can be traded is so that you can't trade hacked Pokemon. Like if you had a Zekrom met anywhere other than N's Castle, or a Shiny Victini.
