For those of you that do NOT know about it, "Pokésav is a Windows application that can edit (“hack") Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum save files. Any aspect of the save files can be changed, including Pokémon (and their movesets) as well as items. Pokésav can also generate Action Replay DS codes to provide the same effects as editing the save file directly."
"Pokésav can save hours of tedious training. For example, instead of having to breed a Pokémon and train it all the way to level 100, with Pokésav you can instantly create a Pokémon of any species, level, or moveset. It is also possible to use Pokésav to edit other aspects of the game such as the items and mystery gifts."
Is this against the rules to use in competitive play (is it cheating)?
"The rules vary from league to league, however it’s impossible to be caught by creating only legit looking Pokémon: hacked Pokémon that can’t be differentiated from authentic Pokémon. In most leagues, however, use of a save editor is considered cheating. If you are not careful, you could get disqualified from a competition.
Being careful means keeping within the acceptable boundaries of the game, and not creating teams that are too outlandish (all shiny, 31 IVs for everything, etc.). It also helps greatly (whenever possible) to create hatched Pokémon instead of wild Pokémon, and to make very few edits to legitimate Pokémon. To be safe, don't change the IVs, hidden values, nature, gender, shininess, class, or ability."
Using this legit checker you can make sure your pokemon are seen as legit by the game. It even tells your if Trash Bits are correct.
Don't think of it as cheating (because it isn't)! Just think of it as a "Time Saver"! Think "Shoddy Battle on DS"!
If you need a Pokemon or two Pokesav'd then I ( and hopefully others ) may be able to help you out once in a while by creating them, then trading them over to you, or by answering any questions about anything.
Note that I (and hopefully any one else) will NEVER hack illegal pokemon. That means no Spiritomb with Wonderguard, No Illegal movesets, No impossible to get stats, etc. Pokesav is meant to save time training, so you can get to battling and advance your skills.

Edit:
The Action Replay DS will NOT work with a Nintendo DSi You must find someone with a DS Lite/DS to use it, or wait for Action Replay DSi to come out.
