Hacking Can I trade a shiny Pokemon from a hacked switch to an unhacked switch, then trade to a friend online?

GravePaladin · Apr 24, 2023

Title says it all. My friend wants a certain shiny pokemon, I have a hacked switch and can get the shiny pokemon he wants, trade it locally to my unhacked switch, then trade it to him online, however I'm unsure if I would get my unhacked switch banned in doing so.

He has to trade with you locally unless you have a second unit to trade with yourself.

I have 2 switches, one hacked, one not. The hacked one would get the shiny and trade it to my unhacked, then the unhacked switch would trade to my friend online.

That would be fine, make sure legality check fine, if it has home id, change the pokemon pid and blank out the home id with 0s

Even if I were to catch the shiny in game? I'm not adding it in using PKHex, but find it in the wild and catch it normally.

What I said earlier only apply to if there was a home ID on it already, if you want to get rid of the home ID, you can do a clone then do a pid reroll, and 0 out the pokemon home ID, so it treated like a new pokemon when entering home.

So I put it in PKHex to see if I'm doing this right, is the home tracker the Home ID?
Sorry for the dumb questions.

If it has 0s then it mean it haven't been in home yet

Good to trade, make sure legality check says legit.

Hey, I read this thread and I have a question: what is this legality check and how can I see if my pokemon is legit?
Thanks

In pkhex, when editing a mon it'll tell you if the pkmn is legal or not. It checks too see if the mon has stuff that it shouldn't. Example, charmander knowing hydro pump, Pikachu with wonder guard. Etc. If its illegal mon, then high chance for a game ban and a console ban
