6th Gen Pokemon Bank

[AuroraBeam]

The only reason I want bank any more is so I can restart my game, and at this point I'm not very excited to do so. Maybe eventually, so really I have tons of time to wait for Bank. I still check every day, though.

That's why I really want it now. I've never restarted a game because I could never have got rid of all my pokemon. Now I really want to restart it and actually complete everything and still waiting :(

news! Nintendo said they released the bank and are watching player's experiences to insure it working and all that. So I wouldn't expect a North America or European release until February. They did apologize for lack of news, but a time frame of what they're planning would have been nice.

^I think we already knew this news lol. ^__^ I hope we get it soon if it does really well in Japan.

Tbh, the longer I wait the less I'm waiting for Pokemon Bank. By this time, i'm already getting all of my Pokemon I had in B&W into XY, so Pokemon Bank is getting kinda useless for me now.

How?? are you getting Pokemon from B&W into X&Y.

Porbably through trades. I'd assume that's what he means.

It would be funny if Pokemon Bank is released on the 27th cause then it would be exactly one month after they were supposed to be released. I'm thinking it's coming soon considering it was released again in Japan and other parts in Asia and from what I'm hearing it's so far had no problems. So based on that we should hopefully get it either by the end of this week or near the beginning of February.

It's not possible to trade from the gen V games and X and Y. While wireless communication is possible between the DS and 3DS, you can't trade between BW/B2W2 and X& Y. Though what LilJz probably means is through the GTS, he was able to get all the Pokemon he obtained in BW, just not the exact ones on his copy of the games.

I hope it comes out on the 27, that would be really cool since it would be my birthday!

that was their latest news 'update', pretty much them apologizing for not telling us anything.

Found this from another 3DS forum that they got from Twitters:

Nintendo UK ‏@NintendoUK
Hi Pokémon fans, sorry it's taken until now before we could give you an update on Pokémon Bank
Pokémon Bank & Poké Transporter services have now resumed operation in various Asian territories incl. Japan
We'll be closely monitoring players' experiences as we prepare for the European release
Once again we want to apologise for the delay, and thank you for your patience and your interest

That was like 3 days ago, nothing new

Kinda figured, but for those who haven't seen it.

 

[I.T.]

WHY CAN'T I LIVE IN JAPAN? WHY CAN'T NINTENDO JUST TELL US A FREAKEN RELEASE DATE FOR THIS. STOP MAKING FOLKS WONDERING WHEN THIS **** WILL RELEASE. I'M TIRED OF THIS SHHH! ...needed to get that out of my system.

No, I'm getting them through trades from here on PC or Wonder Trade. Although they're not MY Pokemon, I can breed them and level them up which I love doing.

 

[Sydian]

I'm two away from a complete Dex, so my need for Bank is slowly dwindling. I mean, I guess it'll be nice to transfer some stuff for keeps, like legendaries since I just get their Dex entries and trade back, but yeah. I'm basically at the point of not caring.

That 3000 years picture is hilarious! Nobody knows much but I kinda hope they let hacked Pokemon in because my friend has an older game that is hacked to get any Pokémon, so I'm hoping so he can get me a Mew! I know it sound weird that I want hacked Pokémon in but Its very hard to get Mew without hacking or getting an older game and transferring up, which can also take awhile. Pretty much I do and don't want hacked Pokémon at the same time.

Well, if by hacked you mean crazy (with Wonder Guard,etc), then I can almost guarantee you that the poke will not go through, as the programs security will probably be on-par or even better than Previous Gens. Therefore, I do believe that legit pokes (pokemon that have correct abilities,etc, but are hacked/edited) will be capable of breaking through the system, as they virtually aren't much different than RNGed or Cloned pokes, or even legal pokes for that matter

I still have yet to get it... want it so bad!

POKEMON BANK IS BACK!!!! Only in Japan though :<


"Pokemon Bank" and "Poke Transporter" have reappeared on the eShop digital stores in Japan and other Asian territories. Nintendo is going to monitor the "players' experiences" in preparation for a western release.

No date is set for the rest of the world yet.
