Poke Pelago Glitch: Timer Hits Zero

[User19sq]

Haven't seen any mentions of this, so I'll bring it to the table.

Completely exploitable: for some reason, when the 3DS's clock transitions from January 31, 2017 23:59 PM to February 1, 2017 00:00 AM, all timers in the archipelago instantly hit zero, instead of resetting to the maximum time. Which means that any Pokemon at Isle Evelup will instantly gain the total EXP or EVs, and any exploring Pokemon at Isle Aphun will return with treasure, as well as all berries on Isle Aplenty will instantly bare berries in one minute.

Thoughts?

But I think if you change the time, you're punished. I think SM freezes all time based events for 24 hrs.

Yeah, but I'm sure people still do the glitches. Some people have their clocks set back a bit too, idk why.

Late response is late, but better than never.

Tested and confirmed: the glitch only affects the archipelago, and all other time-based events are locked for 24 hours. Granted I only checked the lotteries in and out of the Festival Plaza, but there's very little reason to doubt the same isn't for anything else.
