    I don't even have one, so that's a no. It's cheating. Tis why it is called a cheat device. I used to use Gameshark all the time, but it took the fun out of raising Pokemon and actually getting items and money. The only time I ever use a cheat device is when I'm using an emulator, other than that, no.

    I did use Action Replay but only as a booster at the beginning of the game. I ended up tossing most of my medicines and almost all of the Master Balls before using any of them (saving them).

    I'll also use it if Event Codes become available (which could take some time) - I can't go over the Wifi in my house as I have a DS Lite and a WPA router, and I cannot go to any events because I don't know where they are and I can't justify the train fare on my wage just for events :/

    BTW, what's with the Wild Pokemon Modifier? Under it, it says "DO NOT BREED - USE ONLY FOR EXPERIMENTAL PURPOSES". What, if I breed it, will it turn into a Bad Egg or something? Or is that just to try to discourage you from using it?

    No, but I use it on my Platinum version for EV training. AR takes the fun out of Pokemon games for me... but I don't find EV training fun, so I have no problem hacking EVs

    U R TEH CHEATAR! :D


    Anyway, no I won't because I don't even own an AR, and I don't plan on getting one. I would get bored of the game so fast if I did.

    LOL :laugh: it's true! But I don't give them EVs higher than what you get from training naturally.. if that makes sense :P

    I don't think I'd use AR even if I had one available. Cheat devices just take the fun out of games like Pokemon where you know you'll completely SMASH everyone you battle against. Very predictable and boring after the first ten or so minutes. I just like to play games normally and enjoy them the way they were supposed to be enjoyed. That's just me, though.

    Once you buy a game, you own it, and anyone who thinks they have the right to tell you how or how not to enjoy it needs to get a life.

    AR owners, do what you will. You're fine by me.

    I will only use an AR for the TM's or I could just grind in gaining money/BP on platinum to get the good TM's.

    For me, when my cousin played with cheats and we quickly ran through Diamond, it was Booring. I don't have, neither will use one in SS.

    Absolutely not! Cheating, pffshh.
    I think I may do it to get the Pokemon in Platinum that were event only. Considering I just got the game so it'd be impossible to get them legit.
    There are a lot of people here who will clone event Pokemon. I'm assuming that since you'd be okay with using AR to get them, you wouldn't have any problem with clones.
