Hacked or not? *A guide to hacks*

[Southpaw09]

Hmmmm....

At the GTS I stumbled across somebody that seemed to be asking for hacks.
Pokemon that have evolved well before they should have.

I've got a hacked Acraus myself from a trade, but I don't use it.

Another friend has impossible pokes like a Gyrados with Volt Absorb. :rofl: He won't use against other gamers, though.

Heres an obvious one, if someone has level 60 or higher pokemon with only 1 or 2 gym badges on their trainer card they are catching them legitly but are using a level hack.




or there just really bored and fighting weak pokemon for AGES....

What about the GTS?

I was wondering if hackers can also make their own ID numbers? I'm asking, because I've been doing a lot of trading recently for shinies and four caught my attention as questionable. All these four have ID numbers starting at 0. Of these four, two were hatched as eggs and two were apparently caught. Only one is an obvious hack, but it also has the ID starting at zero. So are hackers lazy and start their ID numbers in the zeros?

And trading your high level pokemon from one game to another?

Um, the game assigns you a random 5 digit number when you create a file, so you should not be suspicious because of an ID number starting with 0.

All right. I'm glad to hear it. Thanks.
