::However, hacked Pokémon can't screw up your game (a la Missingno), nor will Nintendo know that you even HAVE any, so long as you don't use hacked Pokémon in tournament play (like if your tournament team is legit and your collection of hacked Pokémon are hangin' out inside your PC). That's why I'm  keeping the ones I got; it's a cute story, but I also know to never use it in a tournament now. Of course, if you don't play in official tournaments, then that's one less thing to worry about!

:: It certainly shouldn't be used in official tournaments - but that wouldn't actually be possible without incurring disqualification anyway, so this arguing is rather pointless. It's your hideous hack monster; do whatever you want with it. [[User:PLA|PLA]] 09:17, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Why release it?--Darknesslover5000 22:54, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Because it's hacked, obviously. Not that it'll do anything to your game, but would you really want something you could get in trouble over? --Jonouchi 02:41, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
You can't get in "trouble" just for HAVING a hacked Pokémon; who enforces these things anyways? No one. The worst that'll happen is that Nintendo would kick you out of an official tournament for using hacked Pokémon during official tournament play (and maybe ban you from future official events), that's it... and that's assuming that the hacked Pokémon you used was BLATENTLY obviously hacked--like having 999 stats, 31 IVs across the board and other obvious red flags. If a hacked Pokémon is made to appear legit, there's really no way to tell it was hacked. (PROTIP: Nintendo knows ALL the red flags of blatently obviously--and even legit-looking--hacked Pokémon by now. That shiny Spiritomb is one of them.)
However, hacked Pokémon can't screw up your game (a la Missingno), nor will Nintendo know that you even HAVE any, so long as you don't use hacked Pokémon in tournament play (like if your tournament team is legit and your collection of hacked Pokémon are hangin' out inside your PC). That's why I'm keeping the ones I got; it's a cute story, but I also know to never use it in a tournament now. Of course, if you don't play in official tournaments, then that's one less thing to worry about!
