"The use of external devices to alter a player’s Pokémon game is expressly forbidden. Random checks will be performed throughout the tournament to determine whether or not an external device has been used to modify a player’s game or Pokémon. Players found to have games that have been tampered with will be disqualified from the event, regardless of whether the player tampered with his or her game, or received a Pokémon or item that was tampered with by someone other than the player. It is the player’s responsibility to have legal Pokémon. Event officials have the final determination regarding the legality of a Pokémon."

So, my question - what can these checks detect?
Can they check whether parents are hacked, or the pokemon having hacked IVs? Will they check if the items are hacked?
Can they see if it is cloned via AR as opposed to GTS or Emerald Cloning, or something like that?
Can they tell if the cartridge itself has had AR encounters?
