Hackers flood Pokemon GTS with profanely-named Pokemon
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 10 Comments
Pokemon games block players from naming their creatures anything offensive under most circumstances. But unfortunately, hackers have circumvented these restrictions and are now flooding the Pokemon Global Trade Station with profanely-named Pokemon.
Fans are trying to improve the situation by doing things like grabbing the poorly-named Pokemon from the GTS, renaming them, and redistributing them online – which requires its own hacking methods ironically enough. Hopefully official action will be taken in the near future.
