The Project Akala Check Team is an independent and unbiased volunteer-run Pokémon Hack Checking service in Generation 8. Our goal is to provide impartial advice regarding the legitimacy of Pokémon, to help make your
community a safer place to trade.
Certain methods used to obtain Pokémon are considered legitimate by some communities and illegitimate by others. As a result, we cannot tell you whether a particular community will approve of your Pokémon, but we will do our best to
explain the circumstances to you. Utlimately, it is your responsibility to review your community's guidelines and apply them to your Pokémon. Please review our verdict key in the "resources" channel in our Discord server.
While we will resolve most doubts and questions, we are unable to disclose our checking methods for some Pokémon ruled as hacked. This information can be used maliciously so we will only give a full explanation if a reliable moderation
team contacts us about a case. The line is usually drawn at what a regular user can see in a Pokémon’s description pages or find in event databases such as ProjectPokemon, Bulbapedia, Serebii, etc.
In order to use our service, we require you to fill out a form that documents most of the details of your Pokémon. You may also be contacted by us if we require more information.
Please make sure to fill out the form carefully!
Any incorrect information can result in incorrect verdicts or delays in processing.
In addition, we also encourage users to look through our blacklisted profiles as Pokémon who match them will not be checked unless whitelisted.
