1) Is it bad to hack to get a Manaphy Egg?
2) Is it bad to hack to go to Birth Island/Naval Island/Faraway Island?
3) Is it bad to hack to get all TMs/Rare Candies/PokeBalls?
4) Is it bad to hack to Hall of Origin/Newmoon Island/Seabreak Path?
5) Is it bad to hack to hatch eggs fast/infinite money/super exp. gain?

Are any of those legit? Also, I forgot the rest so post them here and let me know if they are legit. Don't post the actual code only its name.

The 5th one commonly results in a corrupted save file, actually. I'm generally fine with the first, but no save file AR code is legit per-say.

So all but the 4th are good to you? Also, are you saying that my game won't be legit if I use those codes on it?

What do you mean, "your game will be legit"? AR doesn't, like, make your game delete. It only has ill effects if you suck at using it.

I know how to use it and it has never messed up my game besides once >.< and I entered a code incorrectly lol. So if I know how to use those codes will my game be bad like have the "black mark" or something?

Well, 3 and 5 will easily get you banned in tournaments, while 1, 2, and 4 are still meant for events/etc.

Well, 1/2/4 don't happen anymore and were for every game except DP which is why I am asking. Also, you think it is a bad idea to hack to get Rare Candies/Infinite 99 TMs/All P-Balls?

Ban me then from all tourneys since I use an AR to get infinite money to buy vitamins for EV training as well as for getting 90 of all TM's for making a move sets.

...Wha? I was being sarcastic though. Of course I'm going to enter tourneys. I don't cheat or make my Pokemon any better or get anything others can't get. I just don't want to plow through the Battle Frontier for points to get a TM like Stone Edge every time.

I'm one who advocates using an AR for items and money. If that's so wrong, then someone just ban me off this website for a rule that's too extreme.

Edit: Another way to put it is what do you do when more than one Pokemon knows a TM like Shadow Claw when you obviously can only get it once? Do you look at everyone's team beforehand to make sure they don't know a TM that is only gained once (but you could possibly get in a trade anyways) or do you ban the use of two Pokemon that both know TM's like Dark Pulse or Overheat?

I think "banning" from tournaments wouldn't make sense when you're a competitive Pokemon gamer who breeds and trains the old fashion way but doesn't have the time or ability otherwise to make the perfect movesets for your team without an AR.

"External Devices" is the term that vgc uses. I'll use that. TL;DR Don't insert it into your ds and you'll be fine.
Yeah. I know how bad it must feel putting all of that effort into training. But, it just doesn't feel right. Like, for example, I got a hacked illegitimate shiny shaymin that was apparently caught in Vidarian Forest. I released it.
