yupThe exact moment before? Like, you export your save, but don't modify it, nor play the game after that. Enter the game, go online and get banned. If yes, just need to do a "little" hex search if my theory's correct.

Illegal Pokémon can't enter online, not even in Free Battles. I think they even can't in offline battles.I think this is related to
I haven't been banned so far, however, the things I did was hacking over 900 Max Elixirs for my main quest, then 999 rare candies. I've never entered Battle Spot and my GTS/trades have been kept with legit Pokemon only.
- Sudden item amount changes or blatantly obvious editing
- Illegal Pokémon used in Rating Battles
- Editing stuff from the trainer info tab, like money and BP. I believe these trigger another flags in the game that PKHeX does not.
I tried reverting back the Max Elixirs and Rare Candies to a less sketchy amount. Let's see if that triggers a ban... I've been wanting to restart the game anyways
Thank you for the input.I think this is related to

BTW, you can have 999 items in the game legally. I just tried buying a lot of Poke Balls and it reached 999 without issues
Verlis is that you?You can't justify cheating.
Modifying data from pokemon goes against their TOS.
Only Pokémon that can enter online are legit ones. My theory is that your save gets modified as soon as you get online, so if it's correct, we can simply revert what was modified and unban.If i haven't been online with the hacked pokemon i should be good right?
It's 9 a.m. here in MexicoNo, it's your mother.
Now go to bed.
They don't ban your Global Link account, can still link other games and use it normally, and they don't ban your Game Syn ID or TID, because they were already modified but the save continued banned. So nothing online-related was banned.Ah, so you think the save file gets flagged as banned somewhere in the data...
I have a feeling thats not the case
So then by deleting the save you'll get unbanned? Lol wutI thought they were lying with that figure, but since it's starting today and people have noted being banned, well. If anything it's a PSA to backup saves more regularly because these bans I think can be reversed through restoring an older save, and suffering only an older win-loss ratio, to the user, hopefully not substantial. As far as item modding, only thing done is Honey, which is totally feasible to get 999 of that. If the ball item modding is an issue, one can enable a 100% catch cheat. Hacked pokemon, not much of a concern as long as you do it right, at the same time they need to fix the checks because some things are marked illegal when they shouldn't be. I guess now it helps that my main game for doing genning requests does not Game Sync setup, and I hardly go online with the other games, so I think I'm in the clear. I do find it interesting how this brings out all the guests and members in droves, like the banwave a few months ago.

Also, in the ban message, they say the SAVEDATA can't go online.They don't ban your Global Link account, can still link other games and use it normally, and they don't ban your Game Syn ID or TID, because they were already modified but the save continued banned. So nothing online-related was banned.
Nah. That's a few people only. If a post's successful, it has waaaay more viewers than that. (Based on personal experience)So then by deleting the save you'll get unbanned? Lol wut

I though someone tried this with no gain from it. It's tied to the Game ID - To the savefile. Only a new game from 0 can repair this.I'm saying restoring an older unbanned save will do the trick, it sounds very similar to trade/battle bans when you disconnect online at certain points, supposed to stop rage quitting and such, but servers can suck to the point of it being something completely beyond your control. For the sake of confirmation, has anyone done this? Got banned today, restored their save, and now you're unbanned? Serebii noted an error code which the trade/battle bans never did, thus potentially more severe a ban.

Are you sure? Have you tested?
