Can you catch legendaries in the sky before getting all the gym badges? (ORAS)?

Question

So, I'm doing a Professor Oak challenge in Alpha Sapphire... and I found and caught a Thundurus while flying on my Latias. I only have 5 badges.

This wouldn't be much of an issue, but I have a hacking software on my 3DS and I added scripts to get Event Pokemon post-game, but I'm worried I may have accidentally triggered the script for this as well. That's why I'm wondering if this is normal and I was just lucky, or is this is the result of my app. Thanks!

Answer 1

That’s not abnormal, as long as you have a Castform in your party you can encounter Thundurus. So if you had a Castform on your team, the hacking software wasn’t triggered.

Hope this helps! :)
