this has already been amply discussed in the "i hate GTS "thread but yeah i'd care since there's a chance of it messing up my game. i dont cheat anyway, i hate cheating

If it messes up my game I'll care. If I wanted deoxys that badly I would go to Nintendo myself and get it downloaded.

CHEATED POKEMON DONT MESS UP YOUR GAME. CHEATING DEVICES MESS UP YOUR GAME IF YOU PUT IN THE WRONG CODE!!!

God damn. Anyway yes i would care as i like my cartriges to be "Clean"
 
What are you talking about? We had the Pokemon Tour, the Wii tour, the DS tour and the Nintendo Connection Tour. About the event Pokemon, Nintendo Australia tried to get them but America was using the machine at the time. Nintendo Australia promised they would hold another event when they got hold of the event Pokemon machine thing.

Since hacked pokemon DO NOT mess up your game in any way, I'm fine with them. For example, any pokemon that I can't get (event pokemon, Pal Park transfer only pokemon, etc), then I'll take it hacked.

And if this disqualifies me from tourneys (the event people might read my game as a hacked one), I don't care. Those tourneys are filled with EV trainers and whatnot who have no clue what Pokemon's about. *coughmyfriend9voltcough*

Hell, I already have an Aruseus, Manaphy, and Deoxys, and the Regis, thanks to a couple hackers I know. =P

I think it'll be harder for Nintendo to disqualy people with Diamond and Pearl when it comes to hacked Pokemon I'm afraid. With GTS there's a chance you could recieve one and it'll probably spread. Nintendo should at least start finding a way to block it but I seriously doubt they can.


I prefer legit Pokemon more. I really don't want hacked ones.

Well duh, of course we all do, but if you were on the GTS, would you accept a hacked one, and not mind much.

EDIT: Rank up, woo.

I'll take them, but only for the rare ones i can't get. And when I get my hands on the English one, I probably won't. I won't have to trade so many Pokemon anyway because of Pal Park.

I got a shiny Pineco on GTS. Afterwards I found out it was hacked, and I didn'y care one bit. I love my shiny Forretress. :)

I don't care if its hacked, as long as its awesome. I know someone got a lv. 50 Shiny Milotic with PKRS, and if I had that oppurtunity, would I pass it up? Would anyone?

A machine..? I went to one of those events, one in England (I'm glad I was staying with relatives at the time...), and it was just a GBA cartridge, nothing special. I think that Nintendo must have more than one of them...

Hmm... I'm not really sure.

I've been against even hacking event pokemon (in the 3rd generation) because it lowers the value of being at the actual event and working to get them. And who knows? You may be lucky enough to get one from some guy you meet in a line.

But for this generation, I don't think it matters that the pokemon was hacked into the game for trading, because either way, I'm not catching it myself. But I don't want one with illegal stats and such. Maybe just for egg moves and natures.

Yes, I hate cheating and I would probably restart my game, just incase anything weird would happen. I'm that paranoid.
