The fact that you can only trade it
locally, means the detection is server side.
Plus, your statements proves my reference of Diancie and
[email protected] as
unreleased.
So when you meant
technical, you meant they wanted to keep things
legal.
So your *new* option you're handing me on a platter, is the
assumption that they want to keep things legal.
That is indeed plausible, for Diancie.
But your argument is flawed for
[email protected]; they can be discarded.
I know, cause I've just tossed them while testing a modifier code using items.
Despite the flawed argument, I can still accept the option of
them wanting to keep things legal.
(Their sudden desire to keep things legal, however, does raise suspicion.)
That simply means at end of the day, the Pokemon and items will be back when released, so no difference there, right.
Edit: I've added
keeping things legal to my post, as another plausible option, together with
potential lawsuit.
