It's "better" if they ignore everything after a Charizard 'M during the check. Kanto Guard Glitch anyone? :P

I for one am wondering how theyre going to handle conversion of DVs to IVs (likely multiplying them by 2), gen 1's EV system vs Gen 3 on, natures, and shininess. Considering a lot of that is determined by the personality value?  and afaik Gen 1 doesnt have that, how will that work? I know we have unofficial ways to "transfer" gen 1/2 pokemon data into gen 3+, but im wondering how game freak will officially handle it…

Also, we saw how rigorous and rigid the validity check is for pokebank, will any mews in gen 1 be able to be transferred at all, considering theyre solely available in VC through a glitch?

There was a Mew distribution event for the VC games in Japan, so theyll at least have to accept those. Its possible they could reject any Mew from a non-Japanese version.

They will likely look at the language of the Virtual Console game when checking if Mew should be allowed or not. Or maybe they'll pull a Jirachi/Arceus.
