QuestionHow do I do it in X?Tommy CampbellCommunity AnswerYou trade for one on the GTS or with another player. On the GTS, choose Seek Pokemon; for the Pokemon wanted, scroll down to the bottom and pick "What Pokemon?" and then type Jirachi. If you have what the other player wants, voila, your very own Jirachi.

QuestionWhat is action replay?Tommy CampbellCommunity AnswerAction replay is a cheat system sold separately. You can visit their site to purchase one and you basically enter codes into the action replay which cause changes in the game, like turning a Pokemon into a Jirachi, for example. It's not for everyone as these Pokemon are not "legit" and might be blocked for use in trades or with the Pokebank. That said, a lot of my hacked Pokemon made it through the checks. As long as the moves on that Pokemon are legit, and that Pokemon is able to be shiny, it tends to pass the check. A few different checks are done to determine if it's legit but it's up to you to take the risk.
