Pokémon Pokébank changes discussion thread

[Ryuuki]

I still can't get into the JP Eshop, lol. Keeps erroring.

Can NA/EU people? Or any other JP people having the same problem as me?

It's dead here in EU too ^^ I'm playing my new game called "The waiting game" from Nintendo

 

[farranpoison]

Everyone is having this problem, no doubt. Yesterday was Christmas.

Just wanted to make sure the problem wasn't on my end.

Well, I transferred my Serperior and some other mons I wanted to try out like Frillish and Eelektross before bank went down, so I guess I can wait to transfer my other mons.

Serperior most important

 

[skies]

Apparently, Gens 1-3 are for download in the E-Shop as Virtual Console! Anyways, back on topic: Maybe they're letting Contrary Serperior pass because the game has been programmed to withstand them, as they might have a release of them?


Also, I know we shouldn't discuss the thing itself, but does anybody know when E-Shop is no longer dead and what time tomorrow bank is released?

Don't believe everything you see on 4chan.

That's one of the two things I've ever believed there, been there for a year :P It seemed legit, they might have photoshopped it, but there was picture proof.

If they were up there, at all, there would be announcements for this. More than one person would have seen them, too.

e: Also there are no GBA games at all for anyone not an ambassador so

Ooh, well that sucks. Maybe in the future I guess?

Wide Guard Honedge Breeding Chain:
Mantine/Tirtouga/Alomomola -> Mudkip -> Turtwig -> Paras -> Dwebble -> Honedge

Replace Honedge with basically any mineral Pokemon

The Wide Guard breeding chain is really kind of beautiful in how ridiculous it is

 

[Haydn V.]

If people are interested in getting pokebank mons early, I've been wonder trading my breeding rejects with some success. So far I've gotten a feebas, a chimchar, and a castform.

When I finally get my 31/x/31/31/31/31 female Snivy I'll start trying new moves on it, but it's getting one in the first place that's a pain...

Anyone want to offer some suggestions?

Think of the most worthless moves you could add to the movepool and try those out

Also, Belch. Python and all

Could you possibly check if it gets Baby-Doll Eyes (Eevee), Boomburst (Exlpoud) [lol], Moonblast (Sylveon), Petal Blizzard (Venusaur), Play Rough (Persian), or Venom Drench (Seviper). That's all the top of my head from new moves and the Pokemon in Field/Grass.

 

[El Coqui]

What are the biggest changes to occur? Im not reading through 12pgs and the OP is not updating when new info comes about

 

[Retro64]

Nintendo has just confirmed the delay to Pokebank. Well this sucks.

Has anyone info on Aeroblast Tornadus? I only found posts on this that were still inconclusive.

Wyvern used Judgement. It's not very effective...
Nintedo used Delay Pokebank. It's super effective!
Wyvern is confused. Wyvern Fainted

Aeroblast was a rumor passed around based off of nothing, and it was not found in Tornadus's level up movepool this generation.

 

[El Coqui]

can I just make a point of saying im crying Cresslia, the Great Wall, is not a fairy type lol

 

[Missingno. Master]

Sacred Fire Entei

Moonblast Cress to a lesser extent

Edit: Oh, and Koffing + Snivy got screwed out of egg moves

Wait, Koffing got screwed in the Egg moves department too? I mean, I knew they screwed it out of the Sludge Wave TM and Gunk Shot by leveling up, but did it really get nothing noteworthy in the way of new Egg moves? No Recover? No Crunch? No elemental fangs? They didn't pull a Psyduck and make it only get Sludge Wave as an Egg move? Gimme something here. :(

 

[skies]

Buneary can now learn Baby-Doll Eyes, I don't know at what level, mine was in the day care and I took it out and it had it.

 

[Terminate421]

I'm currently breeding a good Piplup, I really hope Empoleon can finally learn Roost considering it's a PENGUIN which still IS A BIRD

EDIT: Piplup does not. Will try again when he is Empoleon.

Our favorite undead blue/pink jellyfish gets Dazzling Gleam

 

[Missingno. Master]

Just Belch as lvl up and Infestation as TM :(

Ah. Well, fuck.

Our favorite undead blue/pink jellyfish gets Dazzling Gleam

Ooh. That plus its two STAB types give it flawless coverage right there.

 

[Adonzo]

I've updated the OP with a few more relevant changes. No one cares about Fell Stinger Genesect.

EDIT: Added DG Jellicent, Grassy Terrain is bad
