The Pokécheats GTS is not functional and there are no plans to actively update the site. Other features of the site, such as the Pokémon DB, still have varying degrees of functionality. The site and the forums are kept open for mostly nostalgia and archival reasons and we would recommend using other resources for modern Pokémon hacking.

Pokémon Sword and Shield were revealed as the 8th generation of Pokémon on the Nintendo Switch. These games will take place in the Galar region, with the starters, Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble unveiled. The games are planned to come out some time in late 2019.


Check out the trailer over here:

The Galar region seems to be based upon Great Britain, with gym battles and random encounters in grass returning. What are your thoughts on the new generation? Feel free to post on the forum thread to share your thoughts and opinions on this announcement.

Happy Worldwide Pokémon Sun and Moon Release Day (RIP EU)!
