>The Pokémon Company has just announced that almost 6,000 people have been banned from online activity for having altered save data. This ban prevents them from using Game Sync, entering in Rating Battles and Battle Competitions, and participating in Global Missions. When they try, they will get an error message with the error code 090-0212. They promise to continue pursuing people with edited & illegal save data and will enact similar restrictions without notice


Hahahahahahaha

I don't even have PGL linked tbqh

Also can't you get around this by creating a save file/new PGL account and using pkhex to move all your Pokemon over?
>>
>>31538979
Uh oh, I've been using PKHeX to remove shitty nicknames from mons I've got off WT and changing the locations of hatched mons from Paniola Ranch to the locations they appear in the wild. Should I be worried?

now they'll have to make the goals even lower

Meaning what?
>>
>6,000
That's pretty small so it's probably only retards who fucked up their saves badly rather than just injecting mons
>>
>>31539068
You say that, but injecters etc. are actually a very vocal minority. It's not like it's a significant part of the userbase.
>>
And I'll bypass it, easily.

Oh wait, I didn't even get banned. Really makes you wonder how retarded someone can be to not have their 3DS hacked in 2017.

>>
>>31539079
>vocal minority
Not really, there's no reason for most people to be vocal about it. Consider for example the many VGC players who avoid admitting to it all together, for obvious reasons
>>
I didn't get banned either so whatever.

/vp/ will praise this but the hack check right now is actually fucked, legal stuff like Rotom forms aren't being allowed on Battle Spot, Gen 2 and later evolutions from RBY pokémon are treated as illegal since they have the gameboy icon but aren't gen 1 pokémon and other stuff

Gamefreak should be fixing their shit before doing this
>>
So does this mean i can simply release my shiny Ashpika/Tapu/leo+luna+necro/UBs/marshadow and i'm completely untouchable?
>>
>>31539139
Yeah and there's barely 2,000 VGC players worldwide.

Again, you're mistaking vocal for majority.
>>
>>31539178
>barely 2,000 VGC players worldwide
uh
>>
>This ban prevents them from using Game Sync, entering in Rating Battles and Battle Competitions, and participating in Global Missions.
wow! i don't even know what any of this stuff is!
>>
>>31539141
So for example, if I evolve a kanto golbat into crobat, it gets flagged as illegal?

That's pretty stupid if it's true.
>>
>>31539194
The only thing that matters is battle competitions since it includes VGC events.
>>
>>31539209
Apparently, yes.

On one hand I'm surprised GF is actually doing this. On the other I'm surprised some were actually stupid enough to illegal bank mon before time after what happened near launch when the game leaked.
>>
There are ways to circumvent this keeping the old save file, like with ORAS. Delete the data from PGL, back up your old save, reset the game, relink it to PGL, copy that one value that is sent to PGL, open the old save, replace the old value with the new value, restore the old save, profit. Simple as that

If you don't play in VGC, I guess nothing matters.
>>
>>31539048
It says "altered save data", not "altered Pokemon". You won't get banned for getting hacked Pokemon in trades, only if you actually edit your own save and fuck something up.
>>
>>31539381
>implying anyone here is even good enough for VGC

>implying the thing people buy the game for is irrelevant
You're underestimating how insignificant VGC really is, anon. If they banned you from online period, then people would care.
>>
>>31539381
Yeah it's only esports when there's cash prizes for it. So only VGC matters, not Smogon or any other fan-made format.

PKSM has been known for having problems and PKHeX hasn't been updated yet. Only idiots fall for this kind of stuff like going online before the game is even out.

I've been personally winning some VGC tournaments. Been competent VGC player since VGC'14.

Nigga you use Showdown for that, don't try to trick me.
>>
>>31539165
see >>31539394

You guys need to learn to read and use your brains, nobody's getting banned for hacked Pokemon.
>>

I don't fully believe that, but if so, good shit and stay safe.

Oh sweet connecting to online will be quicker for those that hacked

>enter rating battles/competitions

Oh no now we'll never reach those absurd goals gf has set

>This ban prevents them from using Game Sync, entering in Rating Battles and Battle Competitions, and participating in Global Missions.
And nothing of value was lost.
>>
>>31539024
>Should I be worried?
Yes, but about your high-level autism and not the ban.
>>
This only concerns those that somehow failed with manual modifys on PKhex and PKSM. Therefore Power Saves is still totally safe method.
>>
>not just hacking on one savefile and keeping a separate legit one that goes online and does missions and such

Idiots.
>>
>>31539086
I-I dont have it hacked
>>
>>31540535
you still can
>>
This also means you're getting banned if you have a Marshadow or any mystical pokemon not caught and brought over from the bank. Same goes if you have mega stones that can't be bought from the battle tree. Nice game,faggots.
>>
>>31538979
WE DID IT /vp/!

>Flooded wondertrade with a bunch of hacked mons
>probably caused a few people to get banned
>regret nothing

I feel absolutely no guilt at this
>>
>>31540575
Could you imagine if the Pokémon Company had announced the inclusion of 6000 different genders into the game? I feel this takes us one step closer.
>>
>>31540535
I don't either. I have no reason to
>>
Is there any chance for me getting banned if i transfer through bank genned pokemons?
>>
>>31540664

You only get banned for altered save file, not altered Pokemon.
>>
So like, I can't remember which mons I used a Gameshark to get back in the day, and I just transferred everything I could up to SM. Am I fucked if I transferred some unofficial ones?

Nah, having hacked pokes doesn't do shit to you. People who are doing things like editing their names to illegal things, editing their bags to have items they shouldn't have (and putting stuff in the wrong section of the bag) and doing other obvious, stupid shit that they deserve to be banned for.

I have genned/modified pokemon from gen 4/5/6/7 as well as several clones from gen 3 and I didn't get banned.
>>
>>31540562
Nope. They don't ban you for illegal items, I have enigma/custap/rowap berries, a marshadow as well as a swampertite and I am not banned.
>>
So if I edit already existing Pokemon that I brought over from previous gens (maxing their EVs / IVs, making them shiny etc) and giving them legally obtainable moves would it get me banned?

Like making Showdown mons but on cart?
>>
>>31540639
bad ass
>>
>>31540639
Not that it matters since the ban is on hacked saves, not Pokémon.
>>
>>31539209
It's even worse for trade evolutions
>Trade dragon scale seadra to friend online
>Evolve into Kingdra
>Friend tries to trade it back
>There is a problem with your pokemon!
Thanks Gamefreak
>>
injectors absolutely btfo
>>
Am I fine if I powersaved 999 Rare candies, 999 PP max, and had someone inject mons for me instead of me injecting them myself?
>>
If you aren't banned, make a backup of your main file.
I was banned, but I imported my main file from 3 weeks ago and was fine.
>>
>>31543394
hahahahaha

Can't breathe. You can't get your pokemon back if you trade evolve them? Cucked again by Game Freak.
>>
>>31543971
>Am I fine if I powersaved 999 Rare candies, 999 PP max
hell no, you arent fine at all
>>
>>31544256
Gamefreak hates cross-gen evos so much, they literally forgot that those evolutions exist.
>>
the weird thing is that , without doing anything , i got unbanned , gamefreak is weird
>>
>>31544271
I did that and im not banned. moralfags btfo
>>
>>31544431
Maybe it's temporary or a false ban?
>>
>>31544450
i don't know man , i was not able to battle online , but i could trade on GTS & wondertrade when i was ban.
>>
>>31544479
The ban is only for ranked battles, competition, and global missions. You can still access all other online features. That's why so many people just don't care.

If you can edit pokemon, you have a way to backup your save and change its sync ID.

Stop being a fucking coward. JUST INJECT. NO EXCUSES.
>>
Ok, i'm a totally retard
>>
Now, after 3 years i came back to xy, to get ready for bank transfer (wanted to finish living dex in sm) and i got a ban there (i think?) but it's 090-0211, instead of 090-212 even tho i haven't ever edited my saves. The only thing i've done was transfering few genned pokemons from b2w2, but they all were legal (legal as, they could normally get every move they had).
If i were to transfer all my mons from xy, could it cause me a ban in sm now ?
