    I can't believe it's taken me 20 years since I started playing Pokemon to associate the Bad Egg gotten from cheating to bad egg, which means dishonest. Like, I just never made the connection and just thought it was random I'd get an egg as a glitched byproduct of my old GameShark ways. This whole time it was GameFreak calling me out 😂

    I can not believe that you could just bring that straight up to HOME. I figured it'd get as far as Gen 5 but I wonder if its because when its transferred upwards, the met Route data is lost/simplified so Bank/Home can't check if its cheated because it doesn't have a reference if it should be caught where it was or not. Either or crazy video and I can't believe some people would go that far to get a shiny Pokemon. lol
