Pokémon Pokébank changes discussion thread

[farranpoison]

Did they save replays

please say they did

Asking.

Made an announcement in the BS forums as well.

Perhaps we'll get to see firsthand crap like this.

 

[Agonist]

Wonder if I'll be able to transfer my Rage-glitched Spore/Endeavor Shedinja? After all, the Gen 5 GTS allows me to upload it without issues.

 

[R_N]

...wait. How? When was it released (if it has been)?

a recap
Him: I heard there were Rock Head Tyrantrum on Battle Spot
Me: Are you sure, because that sounds as exaggerated as [other false claims]

 

[EJ190]

Is it possible to get the alternate forms of deerling/sawsbuck/shellos/gastrodon in xy? If you can, what happens if you breed/evolve them?
And what, entei was the only legend to get a new move? None for suicune and raikou?

You can transfer the alternate forms of shellos/deerling to X/Y. I assume Shellos will pass down the female parent's form, while I have no idea about Deerling.

Meloetta gets both Power-Up punch and Dazzling Gleam, because her coverage clearly wasn't ridiculous enough =P

Screw power-up punch, what it needs is BOOMBURST.

 

[EJ190]

I don't know about Deerling, but nothing for Raikou and Suicune. Not like it's new for GF to show favoritism (read: Mega Blaziken and Mega Charizard X AND Y)

Edit: Cress gets Moonblast at level 99.

Yeah i thought so. Gf has this odd love/hate fixation with fire types for some reason.

No love for Grass types. ;_;

Pokebank/mover is still fucked up. Anyone else besides me having the same issues?

Rewrote the OP:

Keep discussion to confirmed new, don't make this a speculation thread as it will derail the thread from the actual purpose.

Discuss!

Whimsicott is pretty much the only thing that is exciting for me. I was really hoping it would get a BST raise but it didn't. :[

I've got some good news and bad news. The bad news is that pokebank is a failurefor stopping hacked pokemon. Nintendo have always been a failure at this. The good news is that we can still use pokedit and pokegen. Fuck yeah. Check this out: http://tay.kotaku.com/pokebank-hilariously-fails-to-stop-hacked-pokemon-1489449874

Legitimately hacked mons were never a concern. It's stuff like unobtainable shinies/abilities and stuff that make Bank worrisome.

Oh Kotaku. *sigh*

 

[Wobblebuns]

Inform if there are any more Pokemon that are able to learn Parting Shot! Oh, Whimsi, if only you had it I'd be abusing the hell out of you. :c

 

[pokeperson12]

Heres another site about it. http://nintendoeverything.com/pokemon-bank-doesnt-stop-hacked-pokemon/

 

[TheTraininator]

So Honedge gets Destiny Bond via Yamask now. Interesting, but is it usable? ...I dunno, seems a little too slow to use it to me.

 

[pokeperson12]

Does anyone here use pokedit. Some may call it cheating, but you can easily make perfectly legit mons (as long as you know your secret id) theyre even random matchup compatible. Theyre definitely able to go through pokebank.

 

[sidakarya]

Then again, things like Contrary Serperior and probably Wondertombs can go through, so...

 

[PrincessDerpy]

They can go through, but can they get online?

 

[sidakarya]

On the GTS (RIP in pieces orz) they certainly do go through! Not sure about rated battles, though. I wouldn't be surprised, if they did.

 

[Anty]

Krikitune gets sticky web at lvl 44 (according to serebi...). It also gets technition PuP and felt stinger (most likely being useless as it has swords dance and bug bite but still. The only problem is that its slow and has no bulk and its attacks aren't great but at least it gets some niche. Krikitot doesnt get it but it learns a tm (infestation)!!

Persion gets play rough at lvl 0. Cherrim gets petal blizzard at lvl50 and dazzling gleam (tm)

My pokedit mon are able to participate in random matchup, so i think theyd be the same in x/y

Was not expecting to see one of my articles all the way over here :P

Lol. But the article is right, but its not a bad thing. Nintendo was never good at banning hackers anyway

Nah, I never faced any in the rating battles last gen.

At least not any that made a competitive difference.
