I don't see a 3 move solution, but if there is one then no, it's not legal
Try the white layer. Or maybe I just can't scramble a skewb correctly.
Edit: yeah I can't scramble it right, I thought the back corner was fixed, not the front (facepalm)

nice triple x cross pb scramble(3.26)
U' B2 D B2 L2 B2 L2 U' L2 U' B F R B D F' U' L' F' R

Solution:
z2 y'// inspection
L' F' R B'// TRIPLE X-cross
R U' R' U' (R U R' U')3// last pair
So did you see that doing 16 moves for the last pair instead of 8 would skip?

@RJcub3r

The normal and most efficient way to solve the last pair is U' R U2 R' U R U' R' (8 moves) that wouldn't make you skip OLL/PLL

It doesn't make sense for you to solve the last pair like: R U' R' U' (R U R' U')x3 (16 moves) without predicting skip.

Weird...
I suspect because of this that it's a fake scramble.

sometimes if i see that i could skip oll. i recognise it when all edges are oriented and the corners form a sune shape when you treat yellow and white the same
