PKSM is a mobile Pokémon injector that works directly off a hacked 3DS. I actually have it. Any Pokémon that has the OT PKSM is almost always a generated/injected Pokémon. While in USUM and SuMo it is entirely possible to get a perfect IV Ditto (I’ve done it myself on a Japanese copy of the game just to get a beneficial breeding Ditto, and I will never get back those hours that I ground to obtain it) through the SOS method (and have even gotten a 5IV SHINY Ditto this way). It’s not as hard as it would appear, but believe me it’s not something you can do in a day, that’s for sure. Also, it wouldn’t be necessarily hacked, but injected or generated. With the flood of Pokémon that can be considered hacked (such as how it is possible to trade a Rowlet in a Premier Ball despite the fact it can be obtained normally, and how some Victinis pass the hack checks when shiny, if done right.), you can find legit Pokémon that are impossible to obtain. This is a huge deal when it comes to breeding. The Pokémon hack check online tend to block many Pokémon that are downright impossible. Through testing, I have found many exceptions to this. During the making of Gen 7, Nintendo and Game Freak did not pay much attention to their hack checks. While it does block things like an Arceus with Wonder Guard or a Mawile with Comatose that knows Fire Lash, it isn’t the best. For instance, here’s a list of a few of the things that shouldn’t but does pass the hack checks:
Things that Pass the Hack Checks and Shouldn’t:
-Shiny Hoopa
-Shiny Victini
-Shiny Meloetta
-Hall of Origin Arceus (Shiny and Non-Shiny)
-Shiny Delta Episode Deoxys
-Shiny V-Create Rayquaza
-Shiny Keldeo
-Shiny Mew from the Virtual Console, even if glitched in with the right ID’s, as that Mew is meant to mimic an event that had specific stats that did NOT allow it to be shiny when transfered.
-Any Pokémon edited, but still with legal movesets and stats
-Some mythicals can pass through with changed OT’s even when from events, which include Marshadow, for example.
(The hack checks are really bad. And these can differ from events. For instance, almost any Pokémon from the GF 20th event can pass through the hack checks when shiny, with a modified OT, ribbons, and so on. To add, any “SPECIAL” Pokémon can “usually” be traded when the ribbon is removed. This allows most Pokémon to pass through wondertrade that are from events, like the shiny tapus.)
-Blacephalon, Stakataka, Dusk Lycanroc, Zeraora, pokemon with new items or Z-Crystals/move- Make note that these only apply when a hacker is online, abusing NTR (Which means they are editing their save file while in game, and even allows the trading of Pokémon with Mega Stones and special items and cosmetic value, such as any ribbon not obtained through normal gameplay) and Wonder Trading. These can be a problem in for Sun and Moon players who are using Wonder Trade, as they can receive these Pokémon in the form of a Bad Egg, a Glitchasuar (Placeholder Pokémon for unreserved Pokédex numbers, which can result in having nullified items, abilities, and moves which can A.) Almost always crash your game, B.) Has a small chance of corrupting a save file, and C.) in EXTREMLY rare cases can brick a cartridge (Sorry Cart users, *including myself, but luckily I have the newer games too*), or a Level 0 (?) (This is something I’ve found myself to be in the game, it’s a sort of MissingNo for gen 7, and is different from the ones in Gen 3-6, as it almost always disappears and it’s something I’m currently researching through guess and check hacking and exploiting the metagame
on ALL of your behalf’s. For now, all I know is that it WILL crash your game if it doesn’t disappear when you enter battle with it in your team. Similar to Glitchasaur, it can’t learn any moves unless it is a Pokémon that someone used hacks to backwards transfer somehow. In addition to glitchasaur, I’m still checking whether or not they can be traded through NTR abuse since, except when back-transferred, they take up an unused dex number, and what that means for their base stats, etc,. Alola forms when backtransfered appear as their normal forms).
-Premier Ball Rowlet and it’s family, Dusk Ball/Beast Ball Litten and its family (Though the conditions for Beast Ball Litten and it’s family appears to be different than for others), and as for Primarina, I’m not sure yet, and I’ll be looking more into it. I’ve tried Beast Ball, but I still do not know the beast balls conditions, and have not found the ball in which it can be traded, besides the Poké Ball, that is. The conditions for most of these, as far as I know, is that they need to be breed to pass the hack checks.
This list is FAR from complete.
I do not condone hacking in anyway, I hacked purely with the intention of researching. In the event that one does hack, they can be banned, and I am not responsible in any way. I hope this reaches many people and keeps them informed!
