This has always been so confusing...
 
I have a couple of questions about WiFi battling that I've always been wondering about...

1) Say you have two Bulbasaurs, a male and a female, that you acquired using Action Replay. Obviously those two Pokémon would be illegit for battles and such on WiFi. But say you breeded them. Would that Bulbasaur be illegit too because it's from two illegit parents, or would it be legit?

** I'm not talking about Legendaries, since obviously you can't breed them. They're illegit anyway.

2) Say you used Action Replay to gain extra EXP after a battle to level up your Pokémon quicker. Does that render the Pokémon illegit and the action illegal (in terms of WiFi battling and tourneys)?

Pretty much, the defenition of hacking is exposing and modifying a games data through an external object or force, which means action replays are bad. Remember that these codes are often volatile and sometimes do more than just the desired effect.

Thanks. I wasn't sure if ARs would alter anything else in a pokemon if you used it to gain more experience or whatever. I own one, but i'd only use it for in-game stuff, like trying to beat the game so i can get to the good stuff (like legit party building >.o). Never ever for Wi-fi, that's a super no-no

thanks again! ^^

EDIT: Oh, wait, one more question. Suppose you used the Emerald cloning glitch to clone a Pokémon? o_O
