    Just curious if anyone knows if there's an official data rentention period for Pokemon bank?

    I stopped subscribing two years ago when I sold my 3DS, got a new 2DS XL this week and my pokemon bank contents are all still there which I was surprised about. Happy but surprised nonetheless.
     
    I don't think there is a clear-cut policy still, actually. /: People report different things. Some went months and got their mons deleted, others have gone longer and still have theirs. I'd recommend not keeping your subscription inactive for too long if you're worried about losing your stored mons. My sub has been inactive since January iirc? and all of mine are still there. Everything of importance is in my US cartridge though.
