Doesn't it piss you off when you see AR players, and various hackers spreading their filth everywhere? I despise hackers
 
I have no problem with AR users.
However, I hate people who use Pokesav to create Pokemon with max IVs and EVs in every stat.
 
I don't care for hacks, but they're allowed here so what are you gonna do :eek:hdear:
 
^Yeah, but the good thing is that you feel even better after a victory.

Once I was battling an obvious Hacker, his entire team was Shiny and greatly overpowered, and I could even tell he used move cheats because his Metagross kept using a Lock-On/Fissure Combo, both moves are unlearnable by it. I managed to beat him though, because most of his Pokemon were slow and Brutish whilst I double-teamed them (Double Battle). He obviously just wanted to win without strategy.

Yeah, I mean the ones that have the cheap Shinies super stacked, and i lul cause they always use rare candies. I find it hilarious. I've gotten hacked shinies through GTS including Charizard and a Milotic, released the hell out of them.

Spiny, I have done that so much on my pearl, cept I lost due to unfair moves/types. YAY SPIRITOMB WITH WONDERGUARDS,teh ,metagross thing, and theymake it so obvious. They make the WHOLE team shiny.
 
Hacks usually aren't a problem when battling, unless someone badly hacked theirs to have 999 stats.

Most people that would hack illegal moves are too incompetant to make the rest of the stats and traits right.

People that Pokesav their teams to have flawless IVs have a minimal advantage at best against people who RNG or IV breed.

RNG is legit, so I've got no problem with it. But the 999 stats, I've lost to a sunkern(Weakest pokemon stat wise) and a Magikarp.
 
Yeah, actually I don't really care much.. It's their game, their rules.. I understand why you hate hack though..

Did you offer something not worth the price? As far as I know.. I haven't get a non-legendary hacked pokemon from the GTS.. At least I have a feeling the hacker doesn't gain anything from doing that..
 
Like everyone else said unless they are maxing out pokemon stats and giving them moves they can't learn I don't mind. Especially since I use AR myself.

I once got a calm shiny Latias from the GTS, which had 31 IVs and 255 EVs in every stat. I still have it. It has helped me beat Palmer for the gold print several times.
 
It depends.

If it's hacked too have 999999 in every stat, then, obviously, that person can go screw themselves.

If they hack a Bulbasaur egg because they don't have any friends to trade with, I completely understand.

If they hack for shinies... well, alright, but just don't give them to anyone without telling them their hacked first.

If their lazy and, say, hack a level 100 with possible stats... Thats kinda annoying.
 
I'd rather not, but its acceptable so you can actually battle with Orgin Gratina, Appliance Rotom and Shaymin Sky Forme on WiFi.

I've got all sort of pokemon caught all over the calender now (from the years 2000 to 2099 from my RNGing to catch some great ones here myself).

If they hack to give it valid movesets and stats, then its not a big deal IMHO.

Now when the hacking goes to giving it stats it can never achieve normally or moves that it can never learn or abilities one can never have, then its a problem.
 
I have no problem with hackers as long as they don't try to offer their Pokemon as legit Pokemon when trading. That's the only thing that really pisses me off. If you want to hack shinnies, event or impossible Pokemon for yourself that's fine but keep them to yourself.
 
Man how many times do we have to discuss who cares and who doesn't care about hacking on this forum?

It never ends up anywhere, just a lot of debates arise as to why a certain person thinks it's blasphemy or the best thing ever.
 
While I myself don't hack, I do see the appeal to some people and am not going to start whining about how evil it is.
 
It depends on what you call hacking.
With AC, or GS, yes, I don't like it, but glitch "hacking"(if so can be called) is my hobby, so I can't really hate those who do that...
EG: using the game's innate glitches to have more fun, no cheat codes unless absolutely needed, and it rarely is.

People have the freedom to use what they want.
If they create pokemon with max stats on pokesav that's their business, and you can choose not to battle or trade with them.
But, if they don't say, then that's not good at all.

Personally I keep my even suspected sharked/replayed pokemon out of trades, battles and such.

Though, I do have a backup for my save file, just in case, so I can technically clone things, but I choose not to unless an argument with my brother would break out otherwise, and when in a store, and we are both adults, I'm not going to bother...
