*During the [[2023 World Championships]], The Pokémon Company employed different hack check tools to previous events, including checking for hidden values that could indicate whether a Pokémon had been modified. As a result, multiple players had team members removed or were entirely disqualified from the event, with many of these players admitting to "having used third party tools to obtain members of their teams". Some players only had one or two Pokémon identified as illegally modified, so were permitted to continue in the event with those Pokémon removed from their team.<ref>https://twitter.com/vgccorner/status/1689847256944656385</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/TheRandomPinea2/status/1689855619187007488</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/pero_francesco/status/1689883904428355584</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/FedeCampoVGC/status/1689878152993275904</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/oshinokrookodil/status/1689930432031457280</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/TrainerRobVGC/status/1689967981131132928</ref><ref>https://kotaku.com/pokemon-scarlet-violet-world-championship-hack-cheat-1850729929</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/TrainerRobVGC/status/1689995014431297536</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/Kaphotics/status/1692728098410701104 VGC Cheating 2023 via Kaphotics]</ref> | *During the [[2023 World Championships]], The Pokémon Company employed different hack check tools to previous events, including checking for hidden values that could indicate whether a Pokémon had been modified.

** Due to the tournament using Regulation Set D (Pokémon and forms outside the Paldea Pokédex became allowed, except {{p|Walking Wake}} and {{p|Iron Leaves}}), many Pokémon used during the tournament did not originate in Paldea. The new method of detection was related to [[Pokémon HOME]]'s tracker value, as non-Paldea origin Pokémon generated directly into Pokémon Scarlet and Violet would not have any valid data indicating that they had passed through HOME, which would be a requirement for any Pokémon with a [[game of origin]] other than Pokémon Scarlet or Violet, or if it had any traits only obtainable by visiting another HOME compatible game. (For example, an {{p|Ursaluna}} would necessarily have had to pass through HOME and enter {{g|Legends: Arceus}} in order to evolve from {{p|Ursaring}}.) | ** Due to the tournament using Regulation Set D (Pokémon and forms outside the Paldea Pokédex became allowed, except {{p|Walking Wake}} and {{p|Iron Leaves}}), many Pokémon used during the tournament did not originate in Paldea.
