Hold on, you can sell made up pokemon that are slightly edited for $84 a pop?

What?

You can buy jpegs for 100k and sell them for 84 bucks too

Urls of Jpegs lol. Not the actual image.

$84! Has the price gone up recently? LOL

He's selling modified game save files it sounds like. No Pokémon were hurt or genetically modified in this man's pursuit of profit.

Ah so he was commiting temporal anomalies and risking a subspace collapse from tampering with multiversal duplication.

5 years in prison sounds too lenient (/j)

In the Pokémon universe? Happens like once a week.

A random kid will probably stop them by accident or something.

I'm thinking he was probably selling saves with all the Pokémon plus all the Pokémon in shiny and a complete story. I did this with every single Pokémon game prior to switch and put them all on my Pokémon home when they were discontinuing pokebank, but only the ones that are able to be caught legit that way.
