we need a summery list for all people got banned and what they done to prevent that from happening again,like:
  • what did you edit in the game,list all of them.
  • have you done online battle? and if yes did you used your modified pokemon or legit one?
  • when the last time you made game sync?
  • have you breed unobtainable Pokemon (HA alola starters?)
•Everything lol
•Yes, Yes but legal Pokemon
•A day before the Bans
•Yes

Lol even from the Moon GameFreak/Nintendo could have seen I was using PKHex.

Again, read through the thread:
You do not get banned immediately after Syncing. Read through the thread; bans take place during PGL maintenance (every Tuesday), though it's not known if every round of maintenance results in more bans.

I think,but not sure if i replace it with edited one,because sometimes i go so lazy i don't make new folder in JKSM.

Damn, I've got six or seven. You could unlink the game before they ban you because you'd have to wait till the Tuesday after next to re-link to PGL. As in, you get banned January 31 or February 1, unlink your GSI and have to wait until the server makes it official the week after.
I guess you could get risky, not care, find out, report your findings, and start a fresh save on the opposite version you got banned in?

Don't hold me to it, but you should be okay. If you want, I'll try trading Mews with you. I've got one from Hoenn that's been able to trade.
How? Care to share it? Mine cant be traded.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Btw something weird has been happening to me with the Legendary Birds. They can be uploaded from R/B/Y to PokeBank but when I download them in Sun or Moon they have HA but the BirdTrio with HA are event only. And I cant use them online. I know I can edit them in PKHex but thats just wierd

All Gen 1 Pokémon will be given their Hidden Ability upon being transferred to the 7th gen.

They're also given 3 perfect IVs as a bonus. Their gender is random and their nature depends on their level.

@EvilMakiPR You must be a bit late in the VC transfer matter. Every pokémon transfered from the red, blue, green and yellow VC roms into Sun/Moon will have its hidden talent (unless the species has none).

Hey guys! I'm also a user of PKHex, but all I've done so far is give items to already legit Pokemon (not anything with the bag), no change to ivs either.

However, i have a ton of hacked mons from ORAS (that I did not create, received from trades), and since they're not linked to my sun id, will they be fine?

It's legit. That's all I can guess?

Make multiple backups before you ever start editing. Just because people got banned for BP, not-yet-obtainable items, and other things, doesn't mean you won't be banned for other things we don't know about.

Although, if you have certain 'mon in your boxes/dex, that could be an indication you were editing your save.

I'm pretty sure you're only going to get screwed if you use gamesync, but maybe things might get worse?

What I did:

- Change TID & SID.
- Create 3 perfect Alolan starter pokémon and make them mine so they will obey no matter their level.
- Drag & drop a shiny Mewtwo holding a mega stone, was legal in my Pokémon Y save, made it mine to obey.
- Create a shiny Marshadow out of a legal event pokémon in Gen VI, everything good except PKHex said it couldn't find a corresponding event, made it mine.
- Set the values for all items in the medicine, items & berry tabs to 900.
- Set the values for all the Technical Machines & Z Crystals to 1.
- Pushed the complete Dex option inside the Pokédex window, aka full National Pokédex.
- Pushed the button to have all clothes and accessories.

State of progress in the main story:

- Aether Foundation after defeating Nanu for the completion of the third Grand Trial.

Results:

- Save file banned for illegal manipulation.

Notes:

████ = Should be safe to do, Power Saves Pro can do it.

████ = Might be cause of ban.

████ = Probably the cause of ban.
