Once-in-a-Lifetime Ribbon
MemorialA rare Ribbon found extremely infrequently on Pokémon obtained in a Surprise Trade.
Note: According to the official guidebook, the chance for a Pokémon to be granted this Ribbon while being traded through Surprise Trade is intended to be 1/100; however, similarly to the Itemfinder Mark (prior to v2.0.1), no logic to grant the Ribbon appears to exist in the game's code, and there have been no verifiable reports of it being legitimately obtained.; Additionally, due to the prevalence of cheating (unless the logic can be properly found within the game's programming), it is incredibly difficult to prove this Ribbon as legitimately obtainable, as trading partners are random in Surprise Trade, and the sender may have used third-party tools to apply the Ribbon before trading, rather than it being legitimately applied during the trade.
