Random question about capture board....

[sptkira]

A friend of mine has expressed interest in getting a 3ds capture board for the upcoming pokemon games, but was wondering on if they would get banned from the official pokemon tournaments if they brought their 3ds w/ capture board... I didn't know how to respond and thought i'd ask here...

Tournaments only ban cheating devices and flash carts. Why would they ban a modified console to record gameplay?

Judges can also ban someone for any reason before for the tournement at their discretion before it starts. So a judge could see the board as a potential cheating device.

Didn't someone from an official Pokémon regionals tournament come here asking to buy/rent some capture boards a while back? I doubt that the judges would ban you from entering the tournament if you explained to them what it did.

If all else fails, could borrow another 3DS from someone exclusively for the tournament.

i would say there would be more chance of them asking to borrow it than ban it
