Can you get the old event Pokemon again without cheating?

Jun. 28, 2014

For Pokémon obtained in Generation IV onwards, the dates do not needto be the dates the events were held. This is because the date isbased on the one set on the DS.

Is this true and is IV 4 or 6?

That’s true, but isdoes notmean you can get old event Pokemon at all. They are distributed by Nintendo whether it be through Wifi or a real-life event, the game doesn’t “know” the dates. This is why it says “searching for gifts”; it is checking the servers for a gift. So changing the date won’t do anything.

And IV in Gen 4. They are Roman Numerals, so that means:

I = Gen 1II = Gen 2III = Gen 3IV = Gen 4V = Gen 5VI= Gen 6VII = Gen 7VIII = Gen 8and so on.
