Pokemon VGC participants are encountering disqualifications (DQs) and other penalties during the Pokemon World Championships. Numerous elite players at the event are reporting instances of disqualification or losses due to their use of generated or modified Pokemon in the tournament.
Competitors on the global stage have either had these Pokemon forcibly removed from their teams, resulting in a notable disadvantage in subsequent matches, or they've been entirely excluded from the ongoing competitions.
The occurrences of disqualifications at the Pokemon World Championships have reignited a recurring topic within the realm of competitive Pokemon play—namely, the utilization of Pokemon generated via save-editing software. Despite the illegality of these programs as per VGC regulations, many players have openly admitted to sidestepping the time-consuming process of building a competitive team through the use of such tools.
Enforcement of anti-hack rules, apart from overt cases such as employing Shiny-locked Pokemon, has exhibited notable inconsistency. This recent decision to enforce these regulations at the World Championships instead of implementing them at the onset of the subsequent competitive cycle has sparked debates about fairness.
This is particularly relevant given that numerous players who faced disqualification have invested considerable financial resources, sometimes thousands of dollars, to participate in the Pokemon World Championships held in foreign countries.
Moreover, certain individuals have drawn attention to the escalating costs associated with constructing a competitive team. The prevailing ruleset necessitates the integration of Pokemon from four distinct games—Pokemon Sword and Shield, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, Pokemon Legends: Arceus, and Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
Acquiring an optimal team legally demands the purchase of downloadable content (DLC) in addition to the arduous investment of time, which includes breeding or painstakingly grinding to achieve desirable IVs (individual values) and EVs (effort values) for each Pokemon. Despite recent improvements that have streamlined the process of adjusting a Pokemon's nature and IVs to align with competitive standards, the overall effort is still considered substantial.
