"Cheating" is doing things outside of the rules of the game. "Hacking" is a specific way to cheat, via messing with the game's code. (Rather loose version of the definition, but you get my gist)
Any hack is still a cheat. This breeding thing is just cheating, it doesn't matter whether you hacked in the parent or got it from, say, a wonder-trading injector.
>>26674006I'm not sure if they do, but it's an easy way for any human to look at a Pokemon and instantly tell that it's hacked.
I don't see why they wouldn't, though. It's easy to keep a small database of every Pokemon and what balls they might be in, and see if they're in an illegitimate ball.
