Hey guy's been searching around on the interent as seen a few people talk about hacked , "legit" hacked pokemon , i been away since gen 2 so i have missed alot , but i know they was around then apparently, people can spend a few minitues and input a perfect pokemon into the game? , i mean it doesnt make a difference to my gameplay i think so im not that botherd about it but my problem is
I feel like catching and breeding for a shiny , or finding that perfect ability pokemon to breed etc is all a waste of time as i can just spend a few min's and create it? , when im trading/wonder trading , and i get a awesome pokemon i lose that feeling of oooo sheet , i just think its probs hacked even though i am grateful, i've read alot of stuff and people's opinion's on this some people hate it other's love it as if they dont have much time to breed etc , but shouldn't you put effort and time into making that perfect pokemon for online or whatever? , i dont know should i just try forget about it and do it my way? seem's like a waste of time spending hours and hour's ? sorry if this is the wrong place new to posting ! :)
also looking for friend's not sure what's in my safari , FC Is 0748-3524-7573 message me if you add me so i can add you back ^^
a HUGE problem I find with the paranoia about hacked pokemon is that people are routinely releasing perfectly legitimate pokemon because they can't possibly fathom that it could be real (someone released a shiny legendary because they assumed it was hacked solely because it was shiny, yet somehow completely missed the fact it had a bad nature and terrible IVs yet it made perfectly logical sense to them that it MUST be hacked when 2/3 of that equation showed it obviously wasn't) if I get a pokemon that COULD be real, I always presume it is. (For example, I got a level 5 Palkia with Telepathy, and since it was in a dreamworld ball and had level appropriate moves, the fact it has 6IVs is mathematically possible and everything else about it adds up too I just give it the benefit of the doubt and presume it's legitimate. it doesn't have an ability it can't have, it's not at a level it can't be at, but people are just too quick to assume EVERYTHING is hacked and it's just getting tiresome to be honest. After all, EVERY Kalos legendary has at least 3 IVs perfect, so what difference does it make if someone gives you an old legendary that has 4, 5 or 6? is it impossible to have 6IVs? No. Do people soft reset a thousand times to get the nature they want? Yes. So why is it just SO impossible for people to reset until they get the nature and IVs they want? (after all, with Synchronize you have a 50% chance of getting every pokemon you fight, including legendaries, the nature you want, so that's a big portion of the battle right there)
With the addition of the Destiny Knot, breeding has become so easy that there really is no need to hack anymore. I'm throwing away dozens of 5 IV pokemon, and in fact have traded 6IV pokemon for legendaries because they're just so easy to come by now, so since I can pass on legit 5 and 6IV pokemon, if I get a 6IV legendary I simply give it the benefit of the doubt and presume it's legit as well (probably with RNG manipulation, but apparently that's not technically cheating, it's just mathematics and probability) and for all the 6IV legendaries I've gotten, only 1 has been hacked that I know of, all the others have absolutely nothing about them that isn't possible (no impossible moves or abilities, no impossible stats, so really, why couldn't it be legit?)
I get the attraction to just inputting some data and getting the pokemon you want, but after actually breeding pokemon for IVs and moves, I found it helps tremendously with your attachment to your little digital things, lol! I spent two weeks trying to breed a Zorua with a Naive nature and exactly 30IVs in Sp Def (both to get that stat as high as possible but also to get a Steel type Hidden Power) and the day I FINALLY got one was the same day someone else offered me the same thing (a Naive Zorua with 30 in Sp Def and a Steel Type hidden power) and I had actually grown fond of the one I bred and had put all that work into, even though it's just a collection of data. And I am slowly breeding ALL my pokemon to have 5 or 6 IVs (even though that 6th stat is always random, I find I keep getting 6IVed pokemon a fair amount) and even though it can take days or weeks for just one pokemon, I still think it's worth it. And now that it's actually easy to do so (with Destiny knot for IVs and Everstone for Nature) there's really no reason NOT to do it. These two items were probably the best thing Gamefreak could have done to help curb hacking and cheating to be honest. If they would just make the legendaries obtainable more often then there would be NO reason to cheat at all anymore.
