The Pokémon Global Link has been updated with new regulations, promising stricter checks for hacked or modified Pokémon or save files. People found to be violating the new rules will be punished without warning and are ineligible to compete in events and may even have account access revoked.
How do you feel about the changes? Personally, I’m not a fan of any sort of save modification or Pokémon hacking and think it is a great step forward for the series.

FEATURED DISCUSSION: Windows 10
Like I said before, I don’t condone hacking when it comes to official tournaments or sponsored events and stuff like that.
But those that oppose hacking don’t realize how much of an importance it actually is. This Pokemon fan site, right here, has made several, if not dozens of articles based off of the findings from hackers. Since many of you arrived to this site in the Gen 6 era, the most relatable discoveries are Diancie, Hoopa and Volcanion. Or how about AZ’s Floette? Or the shiny forms of Pokemon that are shiny locked? Or Mega Latios and Latias? This kinda stuff fueled discussions and debates, made this site here very lively. And this news was used in countless other Pokemon fan sites as well. Hacking is such a useful tool to gain information about Pokemon as a whole because a large sum of stuff that we do know has never been given an official announcement or mention
If you want to use the argument that hacking ruins surprises, then I think your first mistake was going to the internet in the first place.
.
Yea, but the information would have came one way or another, we didn’t need hacking to find those things you listed. They would have fueled and discussion and debates just later. Judging by how this place was before, We didnt need those decodings to come out just to make conversation
Don’t really care about hackers. 😛 The Pokémon they “generate” I can breed easily anyway, so there isn’t any disadvantage. Unless people hack stats higher than they are supposed to be, but those Pokémon are easily noticed and aren’t allowed online. Hack if you want, it’s your game.
THIS^
I don’t see the big deal with hacking. Never seen it as a problem as long as they are not harming others let them be.
Generating Pokemon is fine. If they go as far as to start releasing viruses and whatnot to ruin other peoples games, then there is a problem.
Reminder that there is an electric type only tournament coming.

Anyone want a shiny Skrelp or Basculin?
…is it hacked?
*giggles*
I promise they aren’t. I got them myself :p
Has anyone heard anything about Corocoro leaks? It’s that time of the month…
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CL_dDDeUwAAqdNY.png !!!!!!!
Is it real tho? If so: Hyyyype ^___^
No idea! it looks like it’s from Pokemon Get TV!
Hope it’s real I’m dying for new Pokemon right now XD
Already confirmed by Joe Merrick that it’s not a new Pokemon. Sorry.
What is it, then?
(By the way, it’s been way too long)
Wartortle, seen in different angles. 😛
(Yes it has, we’ve had a lot of good times in the past, how are you?)
A lot has happened in a short amount of time. I’m finally driving (with a permit), I’m preparing for my junior year and I’ve been dipping my toes into series like Fallout and Halo. I decided to come back here today because I seriously miss Pokemon. I’m thinking about buying a New 3DS XL this week and maybe Y/Omega Ruby to get right back into it.
It seems like such a short time ago that we were talking when you were a freshman lol. That’s awesome to hear, I’ve been experimenting with some new games as well, namely Tomb Raider and some lesser-known DS titles. I haven’t played Pokemon as often as I used to just because there’s almost nothing to do. :/ But I can’t wait for more information on Gen 6.5/7
I know, time passed quickly for me as well. I have to thank everyone here for being my internet support group during the natural growing pains. But I’ve been by myself at home for months without friends (that’s pretty normal for me), so having you guys back would be a morale boost. I know in my heart of hearts that this place will need moderation once again 😛
No worries, I know that people have different life experiences and things that they have to go through, and I’m sure I’ve told you this before and to others as well but if you ever need someone to talk to or chat with feel free to reach out to me anytime lol. I look forward to everyone coming back soon too. 😛
But seriously though…what is the thing in the picture? It looks like a mix between Seadra and Pidgeotto.
I just told you silly, Wartortle xD
Oh yeah, right! It’s the heavily amputated Wartortle from that one famous anime episode! RIGHT…XD
Spiritomb
I haven’t played Pokemon for what feels like years. We need something new, so I can get back into it. I miss this place.
Same. Want it to go back to how it used to be with discussions everywhere.
It will happen. One thing that Xatus are great at is waiting indefinitely. However, this is getting a LITTLE overboard…
I miss talking with other Pokemon fans and stuff, man. Heck, I even miss the drama a little. I wish they’d announce something.
Then pick up your DS and start playing, chap!
Hello everybody!
I have been stalking this website on and off for about 2 years now, and I’ve finally decided to make an account! 🙂 I’m looking forward to many thrilling discussions with you guys in the future and to share my ideas and thoughts with you as well.
So yeah that’s what I wanted to say and btw my favorite types are electric and water ^_^
Hello there! You’ve obviously caught us during an extreme Pokemon drought, but one day we’ll be booming once again. You probably already know me and my love for Psychic types!
Yeah I’ve noticed but once the major news starts to drop in well be on it again 🙂
Yes I heard you like psychics hehe
Well, one in particular I suppose 😛 But with this new Pokemon talk (the new Zygarde form and what looks like a Generation 7 Pokemon), the brand is still going to thrive in the future. It’s during times like this when the fans like me begin to drift off and do other things that we really don’t want to do. I’ll always be a Pokemon fan!
Me too! And I really want that green little thing to be part of gen 6.5 because I feel that would be a little different and I want more gen 6 Pokemon, like really 72 new Pokemon?
Oh yeah! I haven’t even considered that. The fact that it’s going to be the first two-year gap between games in a long time seems to imply that something big is coming. However, we also haven’t finished the story from X and Y. Maybe it’s Generation 7…WITHIN Kalos! It’s all up to speculation at this point.
Yes I would love to go back to kalos! It’s so pretty and there were a lot of unsolved mysteries in x & y that I would like answered.
And it’s also pokemons 20th birthday next year so maybe they have some sort of a surprise for us or something!
They probably planned it out this way a long time ago. Gen 6 in 2013, ORAS in 2014, break year with Super Mystery Dungeon in 2015, and an extravagant celebration game or games in 2016. Maybe we could even get an NX launch title as well!
Sounds good to me 😀 we can always hope
That one day may be soon! Corocoro leaks in just a few days!
Welcome 🙂 It’s been a little quiet recently due to lack of news, but it should pick up soon.
Thank you I can’t wait!
Hello and Welcome to Pokejungle
You probably know who I am since you’ve been golurking for a while, but I am MenacingCascoon hope you like your stay
Also I lowered your attack
I’m DefensiveBastiodon despite the name. I like water and steel types and holes
What are you, a hobbit?
I’m a Byron
Welcome!
Welcome to the community! We’ve come a long way to be where we are today, in our quaint little home. We always enjoy new members to have discussions with!
Welcome to the PokeJungle family!
Welcome to PJN! I’m usually a pizza slave but in my free time I comment here. Anyway, my fave type is Flying, and I’m always down to competitive battle.
Has anyone else still not found Phione in shuffle? 🙁 Had to have used 50+ hearts already
i am waiting ” it’s happening ” .
Care to explain?
like MenacingCascoon said . i thought every body know wat i mean .
If you are referring to CoroCoro, I doubt anything cool will appear
y u think like this i think the will show the mystery of the little green creature and the giant one so …..and i believe these 2 related to Zygarde which mean new game .
I think the green creature in a gen 7 pokemon, but just a normal pokemon, the only thing special about it is that it is shown in a previous gen.
And I don’t think CoroCoro will just explain anything
i think i was right at least at the first part .
If we’re getting a game reveal, I doubt it will be in corocoro. It’ll probably be announced in a Nintendo Direct.
I think the common consensus is that if we don’t get anything from this CoroCoro then we’re gonna get something in a couple of weeks at Worlds.It seems like everyone is sure that this month is the month that we get an announcement tho. I kind of hope we get something from CoroCoro tho. even if it’s a small thing like a teaser for the true announcement in the coming weeks would b fine. I just hope they don’t ignore the fact that they showed the Pokemon from the movie teaser and say nothing…..it would b the ultimate middle finger lol
P.S. I also hope the leak happens sooner rather than later bc it’s been a while since I’ve actually been awake for the news to break and I miss the feeling of following along. Lately I’ve just been waking up in the morning to the leaks and while that cool I also miss the immediate reaction convorsations which kind of bums me out hahaha
“the ultimate middle finger” like that episode of Pokemon Sunday where they only showed 5 seconds of ORAS footage?
Oh…..right…..that was the worst hahahaha
So, is everyone preparing for the Pikachu Cup? I feel like Stunfisk is going to be used greatly throughout this competition.
it’s it’s happening .
How about those who don’t know that the Pokemon they have traded for is hacked?
I think save modifying is fine if you are doing it for your own single player reasons. If you do ANYTHING on the PSS, or even compete, with a modified save file, you deserve to be banned.
