Cheat detection #3

Open mm201 opened 10 years ago

Block Pokémon that fail basic validation tests (EVs > 510, illegal movesets, etc., including Classic/Premier Ribbons) and display correct error message.

What if someone made a Pokèmon that was hacked yet still passed all of the checks?

Anti-cheat is a cat & mouse game I can't win and don't want to play. My current plan is actually attainable and still keeps the gameplay fair for non-cheaters.

Edit: To answer your original question, the pokemon will be allowed in no question. Trying to stop them will only lead to better and better "fakes" until they are indistinguishable to even the best of checks.
