6th Gen Pokemon Bank and Transfer.

they said 5 dollar per year? O.o

Hmm, that's what I recall as well. Personally, I think $5 a month is very pricy, as that works out to be $60 dollars a year, which is the same price as the game here. $5 a year sounds on the other hand sounds very reasonable and if that is the case I will definitely purchase.
 
I'm getting myself a little confused with the release date of Pokémon Bank - I'm certain that it's coming out in December, but a lot of people and websites are telling me that it'll have a simultaneous release date alongside Pokémon X & Pokémon Y.

Any clarification available here guys? :P​
 
Oh, so it's going to be released on the December 25th, huh? That sounds like a fair amount of time. A little late, though since the games are going to be released in 20 days or so. I plan on getting it; but I just might not, haha xD

yep Artemis,
plus I don't have another DS console to transfer IV - V
so I hope someone send this to gamefreak making a way or at least wouldn't acquire another console just to transfer pokemon from IV - VI

The Gen V games were made with the 3DS in mind. They can interface with the 3DS in different ways that Gen IV games couldn't. For example, Gen V games can use WPA2 WiFi when used in a 3DS, while Gen IV games can not.
 
I have another question if you will guys.

If a Pokémon is able to be deposited into the GTS without any problems, could we then assume then that it would be able to be transferred into the Pokémon Bank without any foreseeable issues?

I would assume that it's ability to be able to be accepted into GTS means its legitimacy is adequate enough for both the GTS and the Pokémon Bank? Am I right?]​

I assumed that they were going to update there hack-checkers.

I know I've seen some weird stuff uploaded in Diamond/Pearl GTS (such as a Sealeo with the appearance of a Mew), in which google-searching told me that it was hacks. I didn't use the GTS in other games, so I don't know how proficient the GTS is at blocking hacks. I know that recently Gamefreak has become better at stopping hacks from entering online battles, which is why I made the above assumption.

Oh okay. Thanks. Has anyone else got any opinion on this as well - just so I can get a broad idea? :)​

Same here.
Hopefully they'll also get rid of the low level legendaries which aren't obtainable, same with Pokemon that evolve at higher levels...as it makes the GTS come off as Global Troll Station instead of Global Trade Station...
 
I hope the Pokemon Bank will Solve the "One Save Slot Problem"

Imagine beating the Elite four, catching all the new mons, uploading them into the Bank. Then Start a new Game and download all you old pokemon.

You get to start a new adventure using any pokemon you have, and keep all of the pokemon you collected before.
 
@ Snowpoint My thoughts exactly after realizing that we could deposit them all and withdraw them later. At long as the Bank doesn't rely on some code from a save file or anything like that which can be erased when deleting an old file...
 
I think it'd be neat if you could have an eShop version of X/Y and a physical copy of a Gen V game, put the Gen V game in, and just directly transfer them.
 
Sorry for being off topic, but how does transferring work between Gen IV and Gen V? I never did it before, and I'm wondering how they transferred it from a DS game to another DS game without them being in the same system.

Transferring requires two DS consoles—one with Diamond/Pearl/Platinum/HeartGold/SoulSilver inserted (the source DS), and one with Black/White/Black 2/White 2 inserted (the target DS). In the 5th generation games, after you get the National Dex, you can access a feature called the Poké Transporter, which is basically a mini game that downloads onto the source DS and lets you transfer the Pokémon, six at a time, across into the target games.

Pokémon Bank works with one 3DS, because the software in question isn't on a game card. Useful. Hopefully it doesn't jam an unnecessary mini game in-between transfers.

Get this: Pokémon Bank pretty much means Pokémon all the way from 10 years ago when Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire were out will be able to travel into X & Y! This is chilling.

I know right...it's so nice that those of us who played RSE( and FrLG) will be able to keep our Pokemon to now and possibly further :3
 
I have a question about the bank system.
When used for the transfer process, does anyone know if it will allow Held items?
Like, the Transfer system between 4 and 5 doesn't allow held items...
Will this one?
 
I think only items like Blazikenite will be able to be on bank.
 
I'm looking forward to this, koff~

It'll mean I don't have to release tons of Pokemon! I can keep all of my Koffing and others hatched from breeding. It'll also be easier to get all the Pokemon Exclusives I think. It'll also make it easier for people to go through the games, grab the legendaries and upload them, and start a new game. It'll also make challenges a bit easier. I've seen that some of them require you to hack the game in order to play them properly. Hopefully this will put the cloning and hacking issue to rest. I just hope it doesn't cost much, koff~
