New Pokémon Bank Details Revealed

Details about Pokémon Bank’s operation have finally come to light. Nintendo posted the above trailer with a brand new Pokémon Bank website. Bridgette, the “creator” of Pokémon Box: Ruby & Sapphire has returned to host the new Bank service. It launches on the Nintendo 3DS eShop on December 27th.

Some new details:

  • Multiple games can use the same account, dependent on your Nintendo Network ID
  • Regardless of region you may use any Pokémon X or Y copy on any 3DS to access Bank
  • Pokémon ARE at risk of being deleted forever if your trial or annual subscription concludes

  1. Whenever I’m doing something important, a passerby challenges me to a battle.
    When I actually do want to battle, they don’t accept

          • I still have my Ruby, Emerald and two Sapphire versions haha. Sapphire is my favorite and i LOVE Kyoger. My personal favorite is Swampert.

          • Yeah the hoenn starters were awesome.
            My favorites in order:
            Kanto
            Hoenn/kalos (both amazing)
            Johto
            Sinnoh
            Unova

          • I had Sapphire and Emerald I dont know what happened to Sapphire but I let my younger brother play my Emerald he left the system out at our aunts place and a neighbor kid stole the game ;_; from gen 3 mudkip and Sceptile are my favorites but I love them all xD

      • yes! even though i may not be the biggest fan of sceptile’s design, people somehow made me like it a bit more XD im just excited to see my favorite pokemon’s model :3

          • Honestly I like grovyle too. And my favorite was togepi and getting fairy type and me getting one with 6 perfect ivs made him more my favorite pokemkn

        • I decided to use him on a whim when I restarted emerald it was the first time I used a grass starter and I was really glad I chose it because I came to appreciate grass types more 🙂 though it seems with every generation its still hard for me to choose a starter xD

  6. GG Jordin, can I ask, were you playing properly?
    Ie: Was that your battle team, moves, items etc?
    Edit: I only ask because that was the debut of my battle team and I would appreciate feedback if you could give any

  7. Pokémon Bank…HURRY UP AND GET RELEASED ALREADY!!! I’ve got a few Pokémon in Y that are waiting to breed with my unobtainable old gen Pokémon in White 2!!!

    Reply
    • i know right! X__X i thought it finally started after all this but nope! >.>
      and that must really suck… dec 27-jan 1st is when you can get a FREE subscription of it … imagine someone who’s grounded or lost their game then at the very last minute, get it back and it’s too late :c

  8. What’s your #1 reason for getting Pokémon Bank? To see unabtainable old gen Pokémon in 3D? Activate in-game events? To take full advantage of the GTS?

    For me, it’s to breed egg moves to Pokémon that I wish to use in my future team, but those egg moves are from Pokémon you can’t catch in XY. 🙁 I really want the bank right now!!!
