Do clone Pokémon count as unregistered?

Yes, in games like Pokémon Go, clone Pokémon are treated as unregistered (or new Pokédex entries) because they are distinct forms, even from their originals, costing more Stardust to trade until you've caught one yourself, while in main series games, official clones from events (like movie tie-ins) might be special, but glitches create "illegal" duplicates that can be blocked from online use or trading.

Are cloned Pokémon illegal?

Cloned Pokémon are generally considered "legal" for casual play and most online uses if they're perfect copies of legitimately obtained Pokémon, but they are illegal for competitive tournaments and banned by strict trading communities like Reddit r/pokemontrades wiki because they abuse game glitches, making them illegitimate by definition, even if Nintendo's systems struggle to detect them perfectly. While Nintendo usually targets "hacked" Pokémon (impossible stats/moves), clones of real Pokémon are a grey area, often blocked by newer game updates for trading but usable solo.

Do transferred Pokémon count for Pokédex?

Yes, if you transfer a Pokémon to another game or service like Pokémon HOME, the entry generally stays in your Pokédex, recording that you've "seen" or "caught" that species, even if you no longer own the specific Pokémon. However, for new games (like Scarlet/Violet) receiving Pokémon from HOME, you might need to have seen that species in the new game's region first for the entry to fully count in that game's Pokédex, and some special forms might have specific rules.

Can I trick Pokémon GO into thinking I'm walking?

Yes, you can trick Pokémon Go into thinking you're walking using methods like GPS spoofing apps (iAnyGo, AnyTo) with virtual joysticks or by shaking your phone in a sock, which plays on GPS/Adventure Sync inaccuracies, but these can violate terms of service; official methods focus on using Adventure Sync for real steps, while non-walking tricks use location manipulation or device shaking for buddy candy and egg hatching.

Is it better to purify or evolve first?

For Pokemon Go, it's generally better to Purify first if your goal is saving resources (Stardust/Candy) or getting a 100% IV "hundo" for a Mega Evolution, as purification boosts IVs and level, while Evolving first adds the Shadow form to your Pokedex and keeps it as a powerful Shadow attacker for raids, with the order depending on your specific goal.

Can you legally sell Pokémon fan art?

Technically, selling Pokémon fan art is copyright infringement and illegal without a license from The Pokémon Company (TPCi), as it's a derivative work of their intellectual property (IP). While many large companies (like TPCi) often turn a blind eye to small-scale, non-commercial fan art, selling it for profit crosses a line, even if it's your own unique drawing based on their characters. To sell legally, you'd need a formal licensing agreement, which is difficult for individuals, or create original characters (Fakemon).

Does the sock trick work in Pokemon Go?

Yes, the "sock method" (or pendulum trick) for hatching eggs in Pokémon Go generally still works by simulating movement, leveraging the game's Adventure Sync to track phone motion (not just steps) and add distance, though its effectiveness relies on good phone setup and movement, often involving putting the phone in a long sock and swinging it or attaching it to a rotating object, but always ensure Adventure Sync and health permissions are on.

Does driving count as walking in Pokemon go?

Pokemon Go doesn't count normal driving as walking because it has a speed limit for tracking distance (around 10.5-13 km/h or 6-8 mph), but it can count very slow driving (like in heavy traffic or just moving slowly) or be tricked by GPS spoofing apps, though this isn't recommended. The game uses Adventure Sync to track distance when the app is closed, but it's designed to differentiate between walking and fast travel, often showing your avatar running or biking to indicate no distance earned.

Which is rarer, Hundo or Nundo?

Yes, a Nundo (0% IV) is significantly rarer than a Hundo (100% IV) in Pokémon Go because many common ways to get Pokémon (raids, research, eggs, weather boost) have minimum IV floors (like 10/10/10), preventing Nundos, while Hundos can come from these sources plus trades, making them much more accessible.

Do dynamax IVs matter?

Yes, IVs (Individual Values) matter for Dynamax in Pokémon Go, but less than in PvP; high IVs (especially Attack) boost damage and survivability in raids/Max Battles, but proper leveling, moves, and typing are often more crucial, with 96%+ IVs being a great target for powerful attackers, though low IVs still work if resources are limited. For tanks/healers in Max Battles, Defense/HP IVs are key for survival, while Attack IVs are primary for damage dealers.
