Yes, but if I want to fill up my pokedex, that's the only way to do it since I can't connect to Nintendo wi fi. It's no different than typing in cheat codes on some computer game. The only reason they even have a firewall against it is so that people won't use it for wi fi battles, which I wouldn't take part in even if I could access Nintendo wi fi, so my cheating isn't affecting anyone else. I only use ethical cheating anyway.
