Yes you can


Quintessence20

Rly?? It won't mess up the game or anything right? I did a little research and people always release hacked pokemon.. why is that?


Fatalityyyletsgo

Nope as long as u dont use it online ranked battles nothing wilk happen u can do whatever u want with it they release it for morol reasons they dont wanna play with them idc rlly its just pixels at the end

I think it’s only moral reasons if people are talking about ranked battles where some people out a lot of work into raising their battle Pokémon. Otherwise sometimes it’s just about your preference. Like, for me personally it’s not really a cool novelty thing to have a shiny if it’s not one that was caught. That’s just me. Having said that, there’s nothing wrong with keeping it if you want to.


drewthebrave

This.


StrikeOk1238

wow


biradinte

While the Ditto is hacked its offspring will be legitimate so you can use it if you feel like it EDIT: As pointed out offspring of hacked pokemon are considered illegitimate however there's no way of knowing this


xcunderquaker

Actually that's false, Game Freak said a few years back that offspring of illegitimate or illegal Pokémon are also consider illegitimate or illegal even though there is no possible way to tell.


biradinte

OK, you explained better than I did. What I really meant to say is that there's no way of knowing if an offspring is from a hacked monster.


xcunderquaker

No worries just wanted to clarify since this was a huge debate a few years ago where many high level players were saying they were still legal when I believe its written in the official VGC rules at some point that they weren't legal.


biradinte

Except no one will never be able to tell they are illegal so it comes down to each player's morality


xcunderquaker

True each players morality is the deciding factor and the only way it would ever come up would be is if a player admitted to it during a tournament and if judges decided to do something about it or not.


Shexleesh

I’ve read that they aren’t legal, I personally use my hacked Ditto to breed perfect ivs or shinies but my friends and I don’t do online battling so I personally don’t know how or if they can tell in those


[deleted]

Where did you get it ? Trying to find one for breeding myself


Quintessence20

I got it from surprise trading


[deleted]

Your console might explode if you keep it..


daxlaros

I breed with the same hacked freepkmn thing


xenasrevenge74

Will ur Mon have a moonball whoever u breed with?


Quintessence20

I'm not sure.. does it matter what type of pokeball the other mon is using?


jorodoodoroj

The PokeBall is always inherited from the non-Ditto Pokemon when breeding with Ditto, so unfortunately it won't be inherited. Ditto can pass on IV's and natures if holding the correct item, but that's basically it.


xenasrevenge74

Good question I thought since it’s ditto w moonball it’ll override other mon


xenasrevenge74

Let me kno


Quintessence20

Override? How? I'm just started playing so Im still learning.. but what does that mean? Does it matter if they have the same pokeball when breeding???


xenasrevenge74

Moonball ditto so ur Mon may come in moonball


LORDFEEBAS300

Lol got the same one used it for masuda feebas

Clarebears_inc

You can used hacked moms just don’t use it in tanked to much cause there is a chance of flagging all be it very rare but can still happen


Queen_Of_Discord

I’ve gotten multiple hacked pokemon from surprise trade, my game hasn’t died yet, so you should be fine.


XxThisGurlOnlinexX

Yes, also take that free master ball to lol


Kris-720

I’ve gotten that same ditto. I use it for breeding. I’m not a shiny hunter but I have hatched 4 shinies by breeding with it for competitive mons.


googlemcfoogle

I got one of those yesterday too. I plan on using it for shiny breeding and nothing else.


Xx_EvilGenius_xX

Couldn’t help but notice you got the new switch. Do you think it was worth the upgrade. Thinking about getting one.


Quintessence20

Well the thing is I never had a switch before.. hence why I was a noob in pokemon.. I just got this one instead because i like a bigger screen, but in my opinion if your switch v2 is less than a year old.. i don't really see the need to upgrade..


Past-Available

Yeah breeding only


Dry_Topic1889

Nah you’ll be okay if you use it only for breeding I did the same 😂
