Good to know.

Afaik it's always risky to use Savegame-Dumper/Restore Tools for Online Games.
To get genned Pokemon, I used a second Switch (hacked) to edit the savegame offline. After that, I've transfered my genned Mons from the hacked Switch to the legit one using local transfer.

Sad that this happened :/
Probably you can message Nintendo and ask for an unban (or at least for a ban reason).

What's your error code?
If you're lucky maybe it's just a temporary ban.

Does local trading work?? Like for example two modded banned consoles?

Yes, you can trade pokemon via local

The ban megathread mentions under the "types of bans" tab that 2181-4008 is the relevant error code for a temporary ban as of August last year.
Although it's also listed as the error code for receiving a normal switch ban, and says on Nintendo's website that it's permanent.
It couldn't hurt to call up Nintendo and get clarification.

welp you can use lan-play and think nothing of their shitty NSO (basicly paid P2P connections which should be free imo they only use servers for matchmaking)

sadly I'm using shared account, it required online check before I can enter the game

Just curious, did you use CFW and Edizon directly to the nand you're using to go online?

no, I'm go online with clear sysnand

no, I'm go online with clear sysnand

So how exactly did you edit the save files on sysnand? You need CFW to use Edizon.
Editing a save file in emunand for instance should have no effect on your sysnand, and shouldn't get you banned if you're offline.

By any chance did EdiZon crash?

Out of curiosity did you alter your money, watts, or BP while editing your save?

I've edited money, watts, and BP to be max with cheats on EmuNAND. Transferred save on SysNAND since release date and haven't been banned
