>gen 8's game and save file will be impossible to be altered in any way and pokebank through previous gen is not supported thus being the only gen where hacking the pokemon is impossible to do
How would the series change?
unplayable.

Lol, they said that about X and U you know. Hackers will always find a way.

Make a lot oflazypeople very angry, cause a massive dip in sales, and possibly fuck over the competitive scene completely.Which is why they will never do it. The only reason they're paying any attention to it now is some faggots whined about it, then some idiots bragged about it afterwards.

Thats pretty delusional
All gf needs to do is make EV training and breeding more accesible

I'm not sure, how well was was Gen III's lack of Gen II transfer options taken?
And to truly fix up the games GF would have to use a new file structure, none of this PK6/PK7 bullshit.

It's also a potential PR disaster for TPCi, especially considering that cash prizes are now offered in VGC over college scholarships and that a large amount of known hackers are butt-buddies with their VGC judges.

Well, gamefreak said pokebank will be here for generations. It will just be on the nintendo switch and can connect to 3ds pokebank by using your nnid

Don't believe it would happen unless the next generation of consoles is never cracked (or only cracked very late), or the save files involve online shit.
