A friend of mine shockingly got a shiny flawless Ditto on Wonder Trade yesterday. Everything is fine and dandy... until we noticed it's at Level 100.
Does the IV judge tell you the Pokemon's original IVs or it will tell you that Hyper Trained stats are "Best"?
(He got a perfect Rowlet from it so it seems those IVs are genuinely perfect, though)
Plausible deniability my friend~ Me and my totally legit 6 IV ditto that I got via gts are laughing all the way to the bank! Innocently, of course.
Using the offsprings of that Ditto online, even if it is hacked, won't lead to any problems so you can rest easy about that. Feel free to use it however and how much you'd like if your moral compass is fine with it.
Why would this be an issue?
Hi. Quoting you all for the sake of clarifying this all.
The dittos is hacked without a doubt unless you can trace the OT to someone who's caught a legitimate Ditto and is giving them away.
Do not use hacked Pokemon as parents. Hacked parents have led to innocent people getting into trouble from people using their offspring, most notably the famous Dream Ball Aegislash fiasco. We don't allow people to trade Pokemon generated through third party devices on Smogon or any Pokemon resulting from their existence. If we figure out you've been using hacked Pokemon as parents, you'll be wifi blacklisted.
To address Nighty's question, discussion on this sort of stuff simply isn't allowed on Smogon. Pretty much don't discuss hacked Pokemon unless you're explaining to someone why something is hacked.
I would only use Pokemon that you find on wonder trade for breeding that are obvious breeding spitbacks.
Tried to make everything as cut and dry as possible here. Hope I don't come off as an overly stern jerk, this is just reciting Smogon's decade old policies on this stuff.
