Okay, so I picked up a shiny Pokemon from the donation box recently, since I'd been wanting that Pokemon for a long time and I'm trying to get a complete shiny collection. However, it had a few moves that I'm sure it couldn't have learned on its own, so I'm pretty sure it was a hacked one. The problem I have is that I really want that Pokemon, and I don't think I'll have many other chances to get it, but I feel like a cheat having a hacked Pokemon. So I figure my options are this: 1) Keep the Pokemon as is, and live my life with a dirty conscience. 2) Use the move relearner to get rid of the really good moves that it shouldn't have and go on like I just happened to pick up a normal, non-hacked version of the Pokemon. Still a bit of negative karma on my soul, but not as bad. 3) Release the Pokemon, and possibly lose the chance of ever having it again. What do you guys think?

KindSoul類魂: I'll show you the moves, but I don't want to show the Pokemon itself because that might give away who I got it from, and that's what I was trying to avoid at the moment. @guiller Mocky: I'm a firm believer in my right to not snitch. I have nothing against anyone who does, but it's just not my thing. And it's not like he wanted me to trade him something for it, he was just giving it away. I didn't lose anything over it, so I don't want to screw him over if he didn't screw me first. Attachments:

Ooh its ok then. Well since probalby no pokemon until that point knows this combination of moves, so it surely is hacked... Well, use move relearner ^^ Or release it..

Well you didn't do the hacking, and you received it in a way that any donation could have been received. You should feel as guilty about it as receiving a Pidgey in the donation box because you didn't want to spend the time to catch it. If you're going to use it in game, just use a move relearner so it's fair.

That's what I was leaning towards, so I think that's what I'm going to do. And if I do find a way to get a less sketchy one, then I'll just release the one I've got. That way I'll feel clean. Thanks guys!

i think just use move relearner. i had a hacked shiny abra that knew psybeam, flamethrower, hydro cannon, and thunderbolt so i knew it was hacked. i just found it in my box one day(i know how unbelievable that seems but i had a guy who has never even played on a legit version of any game yet staying in my house so who knows?) i released it because i hate hacked pokes
