AveMatic Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I just peep on serebii for a minute to read any updates about X and Y, when I stumbled upon the meaning behind the little blue star-thingy that is on your Pokémon. Apparently its a proof of authenticity stating that this Pokémon was obtained in-game or through an event and any Pokémon without a star is a hacked Mon. Does this mean that its over for PokeGen and PokeSav or do you think players will find another way to get their old teams through the Pokémon Box?

Khayoz Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I reckon some might still make it through if they've been "perfectly" created :l Hopefully Poke Bank realises that, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summer Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Pokebank is easy to cheat, just like gf's other filters. Just don't make hex iv stuff and you'll be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapphire Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Well, Nintendo seem pretty confidant that they can stop is this time around. Maybe because instead of going from game to game they're instead going to the cloud first, where they might run different hacking detectors. Regardless, gen IV mons can't be hacked with pokesav.

Mmmm..... This is true, they obviously know about these programs and have probably tested them during the development process of Pokebank. Then again, if your making a Pokémon look legit as can be (putting the correct encounter location, all reasonably correct numbers, etc.) then maybe it won't pick it up. I'm more concerned about any possible punishments or penalties that may or may not come with sending an illegal mon to the cloud. As far as I can tell it will still send the Pokémon through, the pokemon just may not be usable... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapphire Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) Nintendo have said that hacked mons can't be transferred. The last Wifi tourny banned you from Wifi if you tried to use hacked mons in it. Also, Serebii have updated with info saying that Mons from Black, White, Black 2, and White 2 don't get the mark and can't be used online. WHELP.

It also says that there may be other marks for Pokémon from B/W, B/W2 could possibly have other marks. But I guess we'll just have to wait until next month to get the ins and outs :| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapphire Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 If they ban all mons that aren't from Gen !V...People will RAGE. And it will be glorious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noivy Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 If they ban my now 10 year old swampert from going to gen 6 to beat the next 8 leaders I am going to qq so hard. My first sapphire copy was a swampert which I have imported to all games and it has beaten every gym leader in every gen (or gen remakes) it's something I would like to keep with me for all time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's champion of every league thus far, and it dam well better be getting champ of Kalos come Cloud Bank time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Seems to me that only if they're hacked will they be completely unable to transfer. Otherwise you should be good to go. They just may not be able to participate in official wifi competitions and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Ikaru Posted November 16, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 16, 2013 It's entirely possible they might be given to the Pokemon once transferred over- I wouldn't rule anything out except stuff that's obviously hacked.

Diana Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 so my contrary hydreigon won't be usable? On topic, I'm pretty sure they aren't going to ban every pokemon that isn't Gen VI from wifi play, but they're obviously putting their foot down against hacked pokemon; I wouldn't be surprised if pokebank checked all the details of a pokemon before they got sent over.

AveMatic Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 Mmmmm.... Now that I think about it I might need a physical copy of some of the older games I stopped playing on the console because I was beginning to outgrow the series and didn't see a point in getting a DS for gens 4 and 5. But now that I'm back into it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chevaleresse Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Couldn't you just hack in two pokemon with perfect IVs, then breed them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Color Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 I doubt that Gamefreak is gonna ban all that born from the glorious Pokegen. Who cares about Wifi tournaments anyways? Most people play with their friends (or subs if they are a poketuber) Gamefreak is just trying to flaunt their power because they have nothing better to do. Honestly, I'm taking this with a grain of salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirdbird Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Couldn't you just hack in two pokemon with perfect IVs, then breed them? I was thinking the same thing. Sure, the offspring would have only 3 perfect IVs, but it would be legit and would make it easier to breed another perfect one once it's transferred into X/Y.

AveMatic Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Couldn't you just hack in two pokemon with perfect IVs, then breed them? Thats exactly what I was planning to do, but the thing I'm worried about is that the parents won't be able to be transferred... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khayoz Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Meh, the only way it'll affect me is whether I can or can't get Arceus registered on my X/Y dex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasssnake485 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Meh, the only way it'll affect me is whether I can or can't get Arceus registered on my X/Y dex Very much agreed. I want an arceus in this game! (and all of mine are hacked, so far i havent been able to get a legit one.) What about legendaries? They cant breed. GameFreak is basically banning all legendaries but articumo, moltres, and zapdos from competitive play. Couldn't you just hack in two pokemon with perfect IVs, then breed them? Exactly what I did in Gen5 Edited December 10, 2013 by grasssnake485 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
