Distribution of obvious Hackmons via Giveaways

[Joey0815]

Hey guys,

I'm wondering if it's allowed to use this forum to spread hacked pokemon.
Of course Giveaways are for free and i really love them
But i would like to know wether the pokis are legal or not.

Please don't distribute hacked Pokemon.
For Hack-Checks use serebii.net or Websites like pokewiki

Just my 2Cents
Cheers

I think it's understood that if you plan on using Pokemon in professional play you should always breed/catch it yourself, or face the possibility of bringing a hackmon into play.

As long as the giveaway isn't falsely advertising I don't believe we have any problems here.

Sorry i fixed my post. I don't actually care pokemon are legit or edited/ created with legal stats and nature etc because it is impossible to identify those and more important: they don't destroy the gameplay.
I think it could be nice if giveaway-pokis get a legal/illegal description in future.

I think as long as all the information about the hacked pokemon is true, it is very very hard to see if it is not legit. (For example, if in a Pikachu info it says that he was captured at N´s Palace, its not legit. It need to have the moves the pokemon can learn and in which level did he evolved, etc)

Check this:
Definition
* Legal (Valid) Pokemon are able to exist naturally in the game without the use of external devices.
* Illegal Pokemon are not able to exist naturally in the game without the use of external devices.
* Legitimate (Legit) Pokemon are created without the use of external devices. Because all of these Pokemon are also able to exist naturally in the game, legitimate Pokemon are a subset of legal Pokemon.
