oh god, even worse than palpark or trading to the game.. we have to do it one at a time!!!! great scott!!!
I do calculate IVs and EVs. I do breed my Pokemon for natures and movesets. My pokemon ARE mindless drones, who just so happen to destroy your beloved Pikachu. They're data, and its a game, get over it.

maybe an online palpark? maybe thats what the online save file is for?
that sounds like it would be true, but it would upset a lot of people that were hoping to be able to store their entire save files online.

Ah, Why Can They not use the Time Capsule again? It would allow for you to transfer pokémon that would not be a updated one with moves and would not be a new pokémon, like the time capsule! It would be great to not use one at a time!? God!

1 at a time? are you kidding me? If they do that once a day crap i'll be really ticked.

I think since they're making it for DS they should just trade with each other normally as if it's a generation 4 game but have generation 5 be a time capsule. i mean if they don't they may as well just make it for the Nintendo 3DS

Since it's a new generation, I can understand the potential lack of trading from B/W to D/P/PT. However, I just don't get why Gamefreak essentially punishes people for being frequent customers (in the case of PalPark limitations). If you want me to "catch 'em all," don't make me want to blow my brains out in the process.

If I want to dump a box worth of my EV'd battle pokemon into the next Gen., I should have that ability.

dude honestly there's going to be like.........591 pokemon or so? By now who the heck would want to catch them all? If this was generation 1 i'd totally try but 591 and no benefits at the end? it's almost impossible. That's jsut me but ya.
they should change the motto thing to "try to catch em all, but we'll just keep making more".

and i agree, there needs to be a real reward for getting them all, not some pointless "diploma"
orange Barney with wings is a prime example of exactly how bad the First Generation's designs really were

Seriously. And some of the Pokemon some people can't even catch in a legit manner, like event Pokemon. So unless they want people to cheat for the full Pokedex...

Even then, as Jerme said, the reward's rather disappointing. Just a diploma, nothing more. If they gave a reward that would make things worthwhile (all the time and effort to catch, breed, raise Pokemon), then it would be better.

I'm another person who's not transferring my old Pokemon to B/W. (I have way too many Pokemon on my Pearl version to even consider it.) But still, the one at a time idea behind this transfer machine is annoying. Even back when trading from R/B/Y to G/S/C, you could trade six Pokemon in total. I'm interested to see what the limits are (one at a time, but unlimited per day; one a day, once a day) and how they are kept in place. And what the reasons are behind this.

Because yeah...this is ridiculous.

Not anymore, they confirmed the final design and it is the exact same.

I bet you that its either Time capsule or you use High Link.

or they have a "advance trade" that knows what gen game there using and stops all 5 gen geting traded.
Could you reword this? The lack of grammar makes it impossible to understand you.

It is already confirmed that you can connect with Generation 4 games, but they have not confirmed HOW we are supposed to. They might reuse the Time Machine gimmick that they had in GSC or they could just use the High Link feature.
