    Export the secure value too just in case (it's one of the options right alongside backing up the save) but yeah for physical game carts you should be fine, those don't use secure values I don't think.

    This thread is like watching CNN during either Election Night or years ago when that Malaysian plane went missing. Every 10 seconds: BREAKING NEWS: WE STILL DON'T KNOW ANYTHING FOR SURE.

    Nah you can fix it. Just try deleting the secure value after it's imported from JK's Save Manager like that guy said, that might work, I dunno. But if it doesn't, when Pokemon Sun/Moon support is patched into the Secure Value Fixer you can patch it up and import the save easy.

    Gaming Has anyone gotten banned from playing Pokemon Moon online?

    Pokemon games use a secure value with saves, intended to stop duplication of pokemons with save backup abuse. Basically the save is tied to that specific installation by the game counting how many times it's been launched and matching that with the secure value stored in the save file (at least...

    I mean you're not walking home to a brick no matter what, at worst just no online features for your games.

    So much for one of the very few things being banned would make me miss out on.

    To be honest I'm just here because my morning class is boring and all my group chats are still dead at this hour so it's nice to at least talk about something at all here with people.

    Everyone seems to just use Showdown for battling anyway.

    Gaming Has anyone gotten banned from playing Pokemon Moon online?

    I'd go as far as saying don't contact support for at least a week or two, because they all know a ban wave just happened and that you're almost certainly not innocent.

    Gaming Has anyone gotten banned from playing Pokemon Moon online?

    In my case nothing, which is why I laughed off the idea of being banned as any form of punishment for me (if I did get banned). My 3DS is pretty strictly an offline and local multiplayer gaming system, so yeah a ban from nintendo online services isn't much of a hit at all.

    Just wait a reasonable amount of time and come up with a believable cover story if the worst scenario arises and they're permanent. But one thing is for sure they aren't gonna believe you easily right now, immediately after the ban wave.

    If your ticket isn't legit then when it's almost done it'll just say an error has occurred and throw out all the downloaded data.

    Santa is real and the world's governments are reptilian puppets, enMTW told me so.

    Written by that exact same guy nobody believes because of his terrible reputation for false information in the jailbreak community? We've already had conflicting reports of "confirmed temporary/permanent" by representatives on the phone by far more reliable sources, this tells us nothing.

    Gaming Has anyone gotten banned from playing Pokemon Moon online?

    If I read these reports right that means it's likely you were just hit with the temporary automatically handled ban that'll be lifted after around 15 days or so.

    If the bans end up being permanent I think your best bet is waiting a little while and then calling & playing dumb, after the surge of initial pirates calling and feigning innocence subsides and it's more feasible that you're just a victim of some hostile seller of a banned console.

    Gaming Has anyone gotten banned from playing Pokemon Moon online?

    Well others have said that phone representatives have confirmed that the ban is just the standard 15 days, and your logic just doesn't fit in with what we've seen so far.

    That quote is just word for word the quote handed to Kotaku/Polygon and says nothing about a permaban, and has the usual vague wording that PR teams use standard so as to not give away too much info to the people trying to squeeze out of punishment. You try to make it sound like the bans don't...
