unown's implementation in generation II formats is incorrect because unown's gimmick was coded in by satan in GSC - not all unown formes are legal with every hidden power type, and currently all unown formes can be shiny (when in the games, this is only possible with unown-I and unown-V):
this can lead to a major (well, major in formats where unown is a meta defining threat, anyways....) gameplay relevant discrepency on cart compared to the simulator, where you can narrow down unown's hidden power type based on its forme on cart while this is not the case on sim! i'm also not sure if there are situations where unown's hidden power type cannot reach 70 base power because of its forme, but this would be worth looking into as well for anyone willing to compute it.
thank you very much, apologies if this is a known issue!
