I can't say for sure if his is legit or not, but a limited edition pikachu DS was released in japan back in 2007, and that is a japanese DS. So it could very well be real.

There are 3rd party full DS shell replacements, so his COULD be one of those if he managed to peal off and restick his serial decal to the new shell. Very tricky to do, but possible.

I can't say for certain as I've not seen the back of a real Japanese Lite... But I can say that most (If not all) of the unofficial cases do not use dual-injected plastic, just a glossy finish.
Looking at the dust cover, battery cover and screw holes in that picture, it looks legit to me! How much is he asking for it? :P

The ds is real under that serial number was the real Japanese one. nintendo had replaced it's touch screen I am guessing they put that there anyways I pealed it off and it had the Japanese one under it. I am just lucky I guess
