This is what Sam said in the new blogspot entry. Hopefully that means multiplayer is in the near future. 
"Also if you feel like cloning your pokemon is a good way to pass the time then go ahead, no harm done.
But... what about all the legit fans, all the people that don't want all this hacking and duping and easy exp?
What about all the people that bought Ninja-ja or that donated in the past? Is that all for nothing?
Fans, I got your answer.... Multiplayer!
Multiplayer will be ran all on a server, similar to how MMOs work, so there will be no duping, no free shinies (the shiny rate will return to lower rates in multiplayer), everybody will start from scratch, and if you donated or bought Ninja-ja you will get the following benefits.
You will get beta access to multiplayer (Play before anybody else)
You will get your shiny codes again so that your shiny pikachu, starters, and mew will be added to your multiplayer account, and will be totally legit." |

I dont understand how this is going to work though. Hes basically said start over again. What about the shinies ive spent hours catching! They are just going to waste? Also does that mean theres no point in trying to catch shinies now if they all get reset?

I think he will have a singleplayer and multiplayer version of the game  . So your singleplayer will remain intact, but if you want to play on the server, u'll have to restart. |

If you do play multiplayer, it's just gonna work the same as any other dual-type game. You have a singleplayer campaign, and a multiplayer campaign. They are virtually always separate. |

Yea i get that but then because there has been no fix to prevent hackers then everyone is going to easily have all the shinies by just hacking them?

thats why Sam increased the chance of catching a shiny. Hackers can cheat to get their shines, we can play the game and get it in the same amount of time. ;D

If you mean hacking them on multiplayer, the basic structure that allowed hacking to be so easy has now been redesigned as it had to be. There will be no hacking as you currently know it, at least not for a while. When and if they work out how to do it again, it's very easy for Sam to patch their hacking method and release a forced update to stop it, now. |

Sounds like a good idea, however, hacking will still happen, even in the mutiplayer...

To get into the remote server you need some serious hacking skill. Other than that, you could use packet manipulation but .. Sam will have thought of that. Hackers will have a tough time hitting this multiplayer, like they do on all MMOs. |

I have alot of MMO experience, and yes hackers will find a way, but so will SAM, hackers will find new ways, but so will Sam.
It's a neverending cycle, just don't worry about it, most ppl in this game (or MMO's) don't pay attention to it, and have fun their own way. This is something between them and Sam.

There is also the problem of trolls. You can't stop them because as soon as you strike down one, another takes its place...
