    Yeah, this may be the case, but it probably isn't. If it was me, I'd treat this like an "Official Announcement" similar to when they announced Pokebank was re-released in Japan. Also, this is indeed their first announcement of the day to mention Pokebank's release in EU. Therefore, I don't see it being release later today. Maybe tomorrow, but Thursday seems logical, as it is apparently the day the eShop gets updated. Also, it doesn't say they are releasing Pokebank right now, it just mentioned that Pokebank has been released in some countries, not that they're currently working on it.

    actually they mentioned Europe when they said where it was announced today on the official Pokemon twitter page

    does anyone know when the European, australian, japanese and korean eshops update for games every week? do you think they release pokebank on those days? if so that might be the case for the U.S.

    I don't see how it's hyperbole saying that they left out the western hemisphere.

    Yeah, I mean, saying that Nintendo are giving the middle finger to North America just because they didn't get Pokémon Bank on the same day as Europe did sounds very reasonable to me!

    • Now I'll totally be sad if I don't wake up tomorrow without Pokebank waiting on me! lol It's normal for Japan to get things before America, but now it's just like American players tongues are drooling since not only does Japan have it, but Europe and Australia.

    Guess I'll hop back to gen V to get my stuff ready for transferring in anticipation. :)

    So I've just loaded up Black and noticed a lack of Pokemon. I then loaded up HeartGold and found a goldmine of pokemon sitting in the boxes. Is it confirmed that I'll have to transfer each pokemon 1 by 1 from HG to Black before I can upload them to the bank for X/Y?

    If so, this is going to be a painful process! ><

    • Yeah, I feel ya. I'm not a big fan of the transfer method from gen IV to V. That game can take a while to get a handle on. Even with the wait we've had with Pokebank, at least we won't have to throw Pokeballs at our own Pokemon again and we can mass move. Big plus!

    • Um question.
    did pokemon again fail at blocking hacked pokemon?
    cause in my black 2 game, I really wanted a Chikorita. so I got 1 off of Pokecheck.org (Sorry. love Chikoritas to much)
    then while I was transferring all my pokemon to my Y game, I accidently transferred the same Chikorita. and it turned out alright in my Pokemon Y PC box :\
    I'm really confused.

    Not all Pokemon on Pokecheck where hacked in the first place, many of them where caught ingame legitemately and then transfered to Pokecheck in order for Backups and stuff. But you are right with hacked Pokemon. I've tested it on one that I made myself using Pokegen and it got through easily (probably because I tried to make it as legal as possible).
    There will never be a hackcheck that blocks them all, because as such checks improve so do hackers and their methods.

    • My face is exploding from the anticipation.

    Not to mention I'm already worked up by various varieties of stupid people for various reasons already. I should probably take a chill pill before I get a full blown ****myself attack.

    I just used both Poke Transporter and Bank and they are working. Maybe you should try again now?

    I'll try again in half an hour, have to do some work today. Maybe it's just cause I'm from a s****y country and Nintendo doesn't like me.

    In theory, yes, you should be able to get them back. Haven't tried the app in-person though, so I can't exactly confirm it. :P As SamStyle said, you might need to get your hands on National Dex before you're able to do this sort of things.
