I set up Homebrew, and used PKHex and genned a couple of legit Pokemon. I went online and on Battle Spot and did a match. I'm not banned. Hopefully it doesn't change.
I think genning legal Pokemon won't get you banned? Can someone confirm?
I'm hearing too much contradictory information, and I'm still scared of using it, because if I get banned, then rip my save file.
Is anyone having success using PKHex now? Some people are, I might try because it looks like you only get banned if you get lots of items.
I'm too scared to try though. Maybe I should wait until this is resolved and the update comes out. Is there a way to take a backup if you get banned so you can restore it?

So I think it's safe to assume that adding perfect IVs and EVs to legit Pokemon are not allowed?
Oh, forgot to mention, I requested Pokemon on r/PokemonCreate that had the same IDs as me, and I'm not banned. It looks like the majority of people are only getting banned from having max items or something.
Someone here states that they were genning legit Pokemon and they were banned in the wave. Being specific, giving a few of their favorite legitly caught Pokémon perfect IVs and making them shiny.
