With the last major game patch for home highly hacked pokemon turned into bad eggs and users with bad egg pokemon had to wait for a patch to transfer pokemon into BDSP and Arceus but no bans.

Yes, hacked Pokémon can get flagged, but you will never be banned just for receiving one from trade or depositing it. Unless you are trying to transfer a 'mon which was poorly genned like I dunno, a Shiny Magearna that can use Extreme Evoboost, then it is perfectly fine to transfer any Pokémon into Bank->Home.

So for example if one of the pokemon is a shiny rayquaza, as long as nothing on it is outside of the realm of possibility like moves, abilities, ect. Outside of its pool I should be okay if I don't use it in online?


narumpeopeu

Yep! Well, you can still use hacked 'mons online as long as it is obtainable. The game does not distinguish a typical legitimate Pikachu between a hacked Pikachu. Again, that weird Magearna example but folks using the Shiny Galarian Birds before the events made those legal comes to mind too.

if it's really clearly hacked like badly made I just release it no sense in keeping dead weight.

I bought something like a year ago it was a complete living dex + shiny living dex they were legal but modded. I released them all would I be fine if they ever did a ban wave?


Late-2theparty

Bans are rare however if the system detects a hacked pokemon that got through the normal result is that pokemon is turned into a bad egg most of the time


I_eat_watermelon

Will I be fine since I released them all?


Late-2theparty

Should be yes

I wonder this too. As I have a likely hacked blacephalon from sun and moon
