in my opinion it ruins the whole game experience since it's much about collecting and such..
If you could get all those things you want in a blink of an eye - then whats the point of even playing? i like longing and try over and over to get something right just because that's how the game is supposed to be!

yeah i really can see your point. I have a rule i complete the game first with no cheats, ever how long it take's. Then and only then do I even think aboout using them.

I used to use them, when I was like 11, but it was only to get the event items so I could get legendary. Since then I have reset my game though.
I like how you say when you was like 11...how old are you now 12 lol

anyways the issue with hacked pokemon is many people can tell if there hacked or not and hacked pokemon are not aloud in battles or any tournaments that this forums or any of the members host.Plus to the addition of that it just takes the fun out of the game and gives you a advantage.

Hacked events are the worst. really just knowing that you traded to someone a legit event and you got a hacked one is a terible feeling. It has added a whole level of paranoia in trading about hacked pokemon.

I like using my AR for rare candie and other items, and to check IVs/ EVs. There useful but i think we would be better off without them.

I was going to trade at the GTS, and I saw a Celebi at level 10, he wanted to trade it for an Arceus.
Well, I wanted to trade it since Celebi is much rarer, but I asked which region it was from first.
What did he answer? The USA...
And that made it clear to me this is a hacked Celebi, since the only level 10 and lower Celebi was from Japan......

I sort of feel bad about cheating when I do it so I try not to. I just used an AR on Heart Gold and I feel bad about it. What should I do? :(

I hacked once back when i had a emerald version and it screwed my game up so much that the game would not even start up after a while and was useless.

I have cheated for a long time, and it has never screwed up any of my games. I think it is o.k to have hacked Pokemon, as it doesn't bother me. I have even hacked so much to point that people would think that the game is ruined, but it wasn't.

I used ar now for cloning/items/rare candies, but that's it.

When I was younger, I had an ar for the SP. I hacked my old ruby game into oblivion. It was to the point where I could rarely find a wild pokemon, only a black circle with a question mark inside it would appear in place of the pokemon. I also got tons of bad eggs.

And the reason people don't like hacks is because many people on PC put hard work into breeding shinies/good IV's, whatever, and for you to just start up your pokesav/ar and do the same thing with a couple clicks is really unfair to them. If you hack on your own game, and don't redistribute it, nobody would care, it's just that very few of the people who hack keep it in their own game.
Gold- 2751 3406 5643-The majority of my EV'd/Shiny on Gold can be traded for bargain basement prices. I only require we trade for Gen V Pokemon.

I can also EV train pokemon and clone. I have yet to find the EV training hotspots in Gen V, but will resume soon enough.

Current Gen V Shinies: Audino, Lvl 50. Jolly nature. PM/VM if interested.

I once get a Cynthia's Milotic for my legimate one at the GTS...>_>
It was level 58, moves: Dragon Pulse,Mirror Coat,Ice Beam and something(probably Surf). And was caught at....pokemon league.
Now i reject this. I was actually at the pokemon league, and i could use it, but i didn't. I released it,cause i didn't want any hacks. I miss my old Milotic. T_T I actually had no other ones.

I have a few free unlegit ones from a friend and I have used them in Diamond, though not in a Wi-Fi battle though. I train them the legit way so I'm okays, but, no way will they be given to anyone else cos' I don't like cheating others, &&. They're now retired in my boxes after going through my Diamond journey with me :)

Like what is the most problems you have had with a hacked pokemon,
What had it done to your game?
Basically the only remotely valid argument is that it's not fair in competitive play. This argument only wins however if the hacked pokemon is breaking the in game limits somehow such as by knowing a move it can't know or breaking it's top possible stats or total EV values etc....

When they don't break limits, it's more of a controversy because you see it's technically just wasting more time for the same advantage to do it the "fair" way.

I blame the fact that Pokemon is an RPG for the fact that hacking to waste less time is looked down upon. After all, RPGs have been deemed "time wasters".

If i had the money i would go out and go to a gamestop buy all the Ar's and then destroy them.
Enjoy defying logic, as they make money and you buy more of them. Might as well increase AR creations.

Although the number of people doing this are probably few, there is a way you can get Japanese events on a American/European game. I won't really say it because it's one of the prime things collectors and traders are here, but it's an easy way and doesn't even count as cheating, unless of course taking a save file is very evil and forbidden etc etc etc.

Unless you hack like a retard nothing should ever happen.

It is fair, many people do that. Some doesn't have the time, some it's too complicated, etc etc etc. I believe people who ban hacked Pokemon are somewhat illogical, because technically there is no difference between a Scizor someone trained to my own Scizor which I used Pokesav to have.

And the whole RPG point being time wasters makes my point valid.

I myself do it because I don't have the time. ALL my Pokemon were obtained legitimately other than a select few which I have used codes to get to their island and catch them normally. Some I got by trade etc.

Yeah, I didn't hack for just Pokemon, things like healing items for the gym leaders and E4, I hacked every now and then, not just wildly like these other people do.

Do you have a brain problem? Or, do you naturally act stupid? (bad trolling XP) If you buy them all, the profit would go to Datel, in which they would make more thinking people will buy them more. Then you would need Billions of Dollars.

Say you had no friendswho had GBA pokemon games, no GBA pokemon games, and no WiFi.
It will be impossible to get a tropius then.
In situations like this, it is definitely OK to hack, as long as you get it as legitly as possible. :D

Well hacking is fine, even in competitive play. Not if you give it impossible moves, but I mean things like cloning and Rare Candy cheats...
Rare Candies are useless as they don't let your pokemon EVs, which makes you conclude that it's really more unfair for the hacker than the one he's against. I see no problem with haking totally normal pokemon.
Actually, I believe as long as you put a NORMAL hacked pokemon in a Cherish Ball so people can be aware it's been hacked and check it, you're fine. But I don't like it when they practically give their Pokemon superpowers...

hacking pokemon is fun. giving your pokemon superpowers is awesome. for a while. then it just gets boring. I far prefer raising them, then seeing the seeds of my efforts come into fruition.
