Its because he may be hacked or you must trade it to firered and leafgreen try it,or the coding in the one you have can't be traded easily.
Are you using wireless adapter to trade it from ruby to emerald? If you are then use a link cable.
Or it could be you hacked to get it.
I tried that with a Mew from sapphire to emerlad and it told me the sam e thing I don't knpw what to do
Do you have the national dex on Pokemon Emerald??? Although it's in the Hoenn Dex it might not be able to be caught until after you received it hence you might not be able to trade it either
2. Did you use the master code for the event item if you used it to get to deoxys???
3. If you did not use an event item to get to deoxys you can not trade deoxys because it is hacked and the game recognizes it as not being caught in the proper location.
I have the same problem trying to trade my deoxys from ruby to fire red, i got it by trade from an hacked game (sapphire), the location it was caught says:
I have yet to find out if my other deoxys (shiny lv100) will trade, all other pokemons (jirachi mew ect ect ect did trade) have been succesfully traded to fire red.
And are awaiting transfer to soul silver using the migrate option.
If I can't get it to trade with fire red, I'll have to trade directly to soul silver, (which i currently do not possess yet)
[color=r[color=red][/color] ed][/color] it happened to me too. my friends platinum was hacked or something. He traded me deoxys. I tried trading it over wifi for groudon but it said this pokemon may not be traded. im really annoyed cuz deoxys stinks.
First Mew and Deoxys are the best Pokemon out there so the game makers tried their best to stop hackers from trading it even though they couldn't get it to be unhacked they made it so you can't trade it I'm sorry for you but I guess your going to have to go far and find some people who were actually doing the events and have them give you it by their game or find a parent or worker who was at the event and they can put it in your game still.
I've tried trading it from ruby (which was given to me already used) to sapphire with no issues. However, whenever I try to move it to any other gen 3 game, I get the same issue. It might be because deoxys is in a different form than the different versions recognize. The link I've attached might help explain why that's the case.http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Deoxys
