When you clone in emerald which one is the real pokemon in the one in box or the one with you?

since you have the pokemon in your party the one in the box is hacked because it just shows up.

p.s. u are curran hill right

I consider the one in the box the real one since it is from the last true saved data. But in reality, they're exactly the same and it doesn't even matter.

 

[charmander rox]

They're both real.

 

[Magic_Umbreon]

Think of the pokémon as split rather than copied. It's sort of like seeing yourself after travelling in a time machine - you are both the same you. That's how it works.

 

[charmander rox]

Yeah, I guess its not a cloning device, its a time traveling device.

I like to think of it like this:

Say you were to step into a device which destroyed you, and created an exact replica of you somewhere else, that's a sort of teleport system, right? It even copies all thought processes, etc. So it is, essentially, you.

Now, let's say you step in and the machine goes faulty. It destroys the you that steps into the machine, but still creates a new you at the other end. Then it also makes a you at the first end, because it thinks the far end hasn't received you.

Both are real, and there's no real way of telling which is more real.

Thankz anyway, I just wanted to know so I could have a unhacked diamond pokedex and still have them on my other game

 

[metricus]

Depends on your definition of unhacked, now, doesn't it? The method is illegitimate, but the Pokemon created in the process aren't in terms of game data.

Well it certainly is in D/P. That goes like this:

10BC: Pikachu
Travel to the year 3000 and pickup Pikachu
Travel back with Pikachu

Blame Dialga.

Wouldn't that cause a Time/Space Distortion though? :tongue:

Better call over Palkia and Dialga to fix it along with the Pixies :tongue:

But seriously, they're both the same as far as I'm concerned.

 

[Dark_Fyre]

they arre the same

It should but remember pokémon are simply binary, they don't remember what has happened and are not dependant on a past or present event occuring.

 

[charmander rox]

Has anyone tested if DP cloning works since the GTS site?

 

[Marril]

I can only hope it doesn't.

 

[Regis_Neo]

So far as I know, it still works. Heck, you can still even request/post Lv 9 or under Palkias and such...

 

[Magic_Umbreon]

Cloning still works
