Are Event Pokemon the same as just officially hacked Pokemon?

Dec. 9, 2020

I was a bit iffy on posting this, but let me explain.

So, when Nintendo releases an event Pokémon, the simply do not find the perfect mon to clone and give away. No. They make it.

They make the mon with the IVs, Shininess, OT, TID, SID, and Moveset, the same way hackers do when hacking Pokemon.

So, aren’t event mons just officially hacked Pokémon? They make the Pokémon, not obtain it randomly, so it’s technically hacked, but an official hack, right?

I’m just srdftgdhjkj like aren’t event mons the same as glorified, official hacked mons?

It depends on how you look at it. Some may say they’re not hacked Pokemon, because Game Freak made them, and anything Game Freak makes must be legitimate. Others may say that they are hacked, as they were specifically created, and not randomly encountered or anything. I believe the more popular consensus is that they are not hacked, as logically, why should they be considered that way? The creators of Pokemon made them.

Hope I helped!
