Man in Glorious Nippon arrested for selling modified Pokéman Violet save data (www.ign.com)

This dude was selling Pokemans with modified move sets for up to $80 a pop and could now face up to 5 years in prison.

Is this not insane? Or do you think he could face a much less severe sentence and the 5 years prison and $30k just the upper limit for this particular set of crime?

I’m pretty sure you need homebrew to access the save data, so if your switch isn’t exploitable you’re SOL. In that case paying someone to make the mons you want and trade them to you makes sense to me, though no way I’d ever pay $80 for it lol
