How do I get both Calyrex rider forms at the same time?

Question

I’m asking this question as I ran into two people in multi-battles earlier last night with both Calyrex rider forms on their teams, the Nick guy had a Green colored Keldeo Resolute Form icon and the Top Shotta guy had a Yellow colored Hoopa Unbound Icon.

Though the game will not let me fuse another Calyrex again using the reins of unity after I’ve already fused the Calyrex from my first play through from Sword/Shield with Spectrier. It only lets me fuse again when I unfuse my Calyrex and Spectrier. And I can’t transfer Ice Rider to HOME to put into my game of Scarlet/Violet. So how do I get both Calyrex Shadow Rider and Ice Rider at the same time to be on the same team like these two did?

A fun tool called PKHex

So you’re basically telling me the people that I ran into pretty much have modded switches and hacked their Scarlet/Violet Games using PkHex to get both Calyrex fusions on the same team? Is that really the only way to get both Calyrex Fusions on the same team? Is through hacking?

---

well, yes.

How unfortunate… I would’ve assumed you could get both Calyrex fusions on the same team and in game without hacking since I could get both Necrozma fusions on the same team. I’m assuming this also applies to kyurem too since I can’t fuse kyurem again to get kyurem white using the dna splicers after I already have fused a kyurem with zekrom to get kyurem black?

Each fusion item only allows one fusion at a time. The reason you can have both fused Necrozmas is because the two use a different item to each other.

Well, you could do the crown tundra dlc again and switch it to your main account

You would still only have one Reins of Unity per file though. It's a key item so you can't trade it.

I think it’s possible to trade them over in that form from previous games?

Answer 1

You can't.

Once a Calyrex is fused with a steed, your second specimen can't fuse with a steed. You can only have 1 Rider Calyrex at the same time.

Due to how the Reins of Unity work, you can only fuse one Calyrex and steed at a time, as the description of the Reins of Unity states that "the Reins of Unity can only fuse together one Calyrex and Glastrier or Spectrier at a time. In order to fuse a Calyrex with a different Glastrier or Spectrier, any existing fusion must be undone" (Bulbapedia)

This combined with the fact that a fused Calyrex cannot be traded, released, or sent to HOME, proves that it is impossible to have two fused Calyrex in one game without hacking.

These properties are all shared with Black/White Kyurem as well as Dusk Mane/Dawn Wings Necrozma.
