What's the easiest way to get hacked mons on my newest games? I haven't homebrewed my switch but I do have a 3DS. I'd hack my switch but it was a chore to do updates with a homebrewed 3DS.
Can I hack some pokémon on my 3DS, then transfer them to the bank and them to HOME without risking a ban or whatever?
You're good as long as you made a decent Pokémon without any obviously hacked shit.
Their moves will be reset automatically on BDSP and you'll have to reset their moves manually if you want to use them online on SwSh, though.
>Their moves will be reset automatically on BDSP and you'll have to reset their moves manually if you want to use them online on SwSh, though.
What do you mean with this? If I have egg moves that are hard to get I'll lose them?
The hack checker is really basic, there's never risk of a ban unless you go out of your way to do something malicious with your save file like trading bad eggs.
Yes, in SWSH this only applies to ranked battles though, in BDSP transferred moves are auto wiped
Use the hash checker before transferring. Pokegen have that function. It will check the legitimitacy of the mon and autorepair it for you while keeping some parameters such as shininess, IV, etc

Why did they do this? Wouldn't this fuck up legacy pokémon that people have been trying insanely hard to preserve? Like Surf Pikachu and the likes.
How does it even work if I transfer them to SwSh? In ranked battles their moves are replaced by something else?
It's hard to say for sure what the reason is, it might just be a PLA/BDSP only thing since the games are so different, or it might be a streamlined method for balancing movesets in all future games. For SWSH the system was better, if you want to use a transferred Pokemon in ranked you have to manually have an NPC wipe the moveset which gives it a battle ready symbol.
So if I have a pokémon who knows an egg move that's kind of a bitch to teach I'll have to breed a new one?
Or can I go to the move relearner and give them their moves back?
Move relearner won't work for transfers but in gen 8 you can at least copy egg moves by having 2 of the same species in the daycare. That still requires breeding a new one though.
When did you get your Switch?
This is really important
Almost on release.
Eh, EVs were really easy to farm in ORAS. Natures were easy to inherit as well. Would come down to IVs which I'm not sure how easy it is make a new pokémon inherit.
bdsp were not developed by gamefreak and they did not want moveset changes made by ILCA to be legal in VGC, legends is obvious. SV will probably use your SWSH data but future outsourced games will likely always wipe your set.
also worth noting that it isnt truly deleting you pokemons moves because it keeps a copy of them to restore if you go back to a compatible game,
>bdsp were not developed by gamefreak
That obviously didn't affect anything because PLA had the same restrictions as BDSP. Also BDSP basically had no new moves anyway.
IVs are a bit hit and miss; you can have a mon hold a Destiny Knot and it will inherit 5 random IVs from a mix of both parents; there's also the Power items that will guarantee inheritance of the specific stat it's linked to but it's kind of a crapshoot
Surf is a regular TM move now for Pikachu in SWSH
Nigga tell me why already.
>almost on release
So 2017, you can mod it then
Switches from 2018 and forwards cannot be modded without a modchip that doesn't even get produced anymore
If you have a hackable switch, all hacks are temporary unless you go out of your way to install pirated games or homebrew as home menu titles. It's piss easy to drag the sdsetup.com files onto your SD card, slide the jig into the joycon rail, plug in the usb and boot the CFW, then dump/restore whatever saves, reboot and it's clean again.
>moveset changes
Any notable additions? Or access not possible in SWSH like Vespiquen and Roost?
>Wouldn't this fuck up legacy pokémon that people have been trying insanely hard to preserve?
Of course, but why do they have to care at this point? Pokemon fans will buy literally anything.
Just some notable ones:
>Machamp gets Drain Punch and Mach Punch finaly
>Scyther/Scizor get Close Combat
>Eevee gets Calm Mind
>Togekiss gets Moonblast and Calm Mind
>Gardevoir gets Ice Beam, Recover, and Aura Sphere
>Vespiquen gets Recover
>Toxicroak gets Close Combat
>Lucario gets Mach Punch
>Mesprit gets Recover
>Shaymin gets Sleep Powder and Recover
And for mons not in /ss/:
>Gliscor with Spikes
>Empoleon with Roost
>Infernape with Drain Punch
>Nasty Plot Honchkrow
BDSP didn't really add anything new to movepools.
