Remember Pokémon Bank, the 3DS app that lets you transfer your old Pokémon to Pokémon X&Y? Well, it’s now released on the eShop! Wait, what’s that you say? The eShop is down? Pokémon Bank isn’t on the eShop? Ohh, I see now! Apparantly too many people bought a 3DS and Wii U as Christmas presents and the network went down from everyone wanting to download their system updates and digital games. Nintendo didn’t think the Wii U would actually sell, so I guess they took no preparations.
Luckily we’re all going to be paying $5 a year so we have reliable Bank servers, so Pokémon Bank should go live the moment the eShop goes back up, right? Nope. As the eShop servers went down, they took the online storage servers of Bank with them. Even if you had downloaded the game, it still wouldn’t work. So much for seperate, reliable servers. Just hope the $5 goes to development of RSE remakes instead of a new sportscar for each Gamefreak executive. Pokémon Bank has now got the tentative release date of To be determined which is not of much help. Still, I’d expect it in the next week or two, once the Christmas/New Year’s rush cools down.
Hope you all had a nice, exhausting Christmas, like I had! I also hope you don’t have to study like I do! I’m going to tackle Organic Chemistry for a while, see you soon. I also didn’t forget about PJM, an update will go live in the coming days.

Any news on PB yet?
I’m one of those who got a 3ds on Christmas. Sorry for contributing to this mess. I didn’t mean to.
How dare YOU! XD
HELLO
Hi!
I’m not getting Pokémon Bank, so it didn’t really affect me :p
EARTHEN WANT TO BRING OLD POKEMON TO KALOS
Everyone migrated safely?
Japanese master race… (Jk)
Nintendo needs to get better servers………………and more organized……
Are you friends with Rhianna?
Is that an ingame name or a friend code name?
You’re the monster under her bed…
oh hahaha now i feel dumb XD
What
Or servers at all for mh3U on 3ds
Somehow I feel like the servers were not the issue with PB. I think it’s a ruse so they can fix their filters for PokéTransfer.
I got a cascoon, it looks just like a ball with eyes. And no mouth. Without spikes. Not moving.
touch it on the summary screen
I’m scared it will swallow me up
HOLY THATS COOL
Wat
Checks it’s pulse
Touch it… touch the butt
YESS so if its going to come up as soon as the eshop comes back up then this gives me hope!! I thought they took it down cause of hackers or something. YESS I’m excited again lol, really hope its soon.
I really hope that’s the reason
The eShop’s up for me .-.
WITCHCRAFT!
Well your DP says you’re the witch.
Guilty.
is bank on there?
I don’t know, I’m not getting it :p
lmao!!
Hai ha ha!
Hai!
Y U DO THIS TO ME
Greetings from Cancun!
Greetings from Santa Barbara!
Greetings from Hyrule!
I LOVE SANTA BARBRA! did u go to state street?
The house my family is renting is on Almeda Padre Serra which is literally 2 streets away from State St. XD
but aside from nintendo servers getting shut down, why the heck is game sync always shut down. I swear I can never save my game file without it giving me an error cause of game sync.
I think they forgot about game sync
yeah apparently so. and random but Croconaw is adorable in this game, I always fancied the middle evolutions of the all the starters more,
It’s cause they the ones you spend more time with in the story
You spend more time with the final stage than any other stage.
Overall but in the story I feel like you spend more time with the middle stage
I guess
I never liked Servine. His feet were almost nonexistent.
OMG YES!! Servine & Grovyle >>>
I bet Nintendo has REALLY mixed feelings for this. I mean like they sold a TON of 3ds’s and Wii u’s but now their network is crashing. I have no idea how i would feel in this situation either lol
I would feel like my priority is to fix the servers so that all those kids who received 3DS’ and Wii U’s for gifts don’t do anything that will get them on the naughty list…
Like going on a rampage because they cant go online in pokemon x and y
Something like that…
djja!
yes bby
I was up until 6 in the morning playing ACNL with Jordin. BUT, I fell asleep during it :'( He wanted me to visit hit museum, I feel awful 🙁
Can i join u guys?? 😀 lets go back to the club in my town!! and to the island so we can get moar stuffs! ill set the time to 10:00pm so we can get sharks.
YES! But wait until Jordin is up 🙂
Btw, can I visit your town to buy a watering can and/or axe? 🙂
NO! 😀 Jk u can lol
I’ll turn my game on in 5 minutes if you’re ready 😀
Actually wait! I just got up myself xD I need to do the morning chores!
I wish we could play online in mario paty island tour..
It really annoys me that with each Mario Party game that comes out, we still don’t have online play.
And the mini games in island tour are awesome too…. maybe wii u lol. but they BETTER BRING BACK NORMAL STARS
I would like to come with you guys 🙁
You have ACNL?
Got it on launch day.
Then you can join too 😛 No destroying my town though, or I disconnect.
…
I made a bigger flower bed and so did Jordin 😀 Don’t touch and don’t run. Jordin even put Don’t Run signs xD
We had a funeral for sophie… it was sad. I planted a palm from the island in her honor. stll cryin
You poor bby :'( I’m so sorry :'( I’ll bring an apple tree 🙂
yay. Sophie wuld be so proud. :,D
Wow I never realised how many people here have ACNL!

u drty drty ho
I’ll come in a few hours. Want to progress in a link between worlds. I won’t greif I’ve been effected by it way to much. Those perfect cherry trees never got a chance to bear fruit…
My eShop works….
Pokebank time?
When I tried to search for it, it just said “Available at your local retailer” and had no download available
🙁 Well I can’t get it till jew years eve anyway.
*New XD
I thought you were making a Jew joke.
For all we know, it couldn’t be up until February
Then it will be a good birthday present. Now I’ve got my iron fist Chimchar I’m not that bothered.
Playing ALBW. Just met Ravio for the first time; he’s adorable!
HE INVADED MY HOME
And gave you a smelly bracket.
AND TOOK MY MONEY
I stuck on the final boss
On a scale of 1 to 10 how tough is it. I assume he’s the bad guy who controls drawings but don’t spoil it for me if it isn’t.
8-9 I’m just a bit slow with the sheild and he nearly kills me before the final stage
Oooh so its a multi stage boss just like Giriham, Ganon/dorf erc. Well I’ve only just started so I have a while to go yet.
It will be a huge Suprise 😉
And bellum, don’t forget bellum
ME TOO! I can’t figure out how to get the Pegasus Boots.
I’ve only just started so I have the power bracket and the Captains sword :O
You’ll see how the Power Bracelet plays into the story very soon.
I GOT GALVANTULA ON WT
You do know you could get them before Pokebank,right?
I just realised ;-;
>.<' I've chosen Chespin 3 times, 2 were female, all 3 with 22 hp…. none with right nature 🙁
on my X I chose Chespin I got a Naughty nature and I thought I’d keep it since it was fitting with Ches”Naught”. And on my Y that I just begun I picked Fennekin, female, nicknamed Hermione, and she is Modest 🙂
opposites! 😀 (I chose Fennekin on X, Chespin in Y)
Froakie in X ftw.
They should, at least, give us the Celebi…
or Jirachi
Or victini…
Or Mew
Or just all of them
FAIRIES, FAIRIES EVERYWHERE
Or PokéBank…
Or Manaphy
Ya know what? They should at best confirm Diancie, Volcanion or Hoppa!
My Torterra just grew to lvl 36… I wonder if its going to evolve.
Torterras don’t evolve… sorry to burst your bubble.
lol yeah my joke went over your head cause Grotle evolves at like lvl 30 or 32 or something and most starters evolve at 36 so I was poking fun at it.
Oh. jajaja
Y U blame it on me Dae ;(
love the new av!
Thanks ya! 😀
Are we still even having a tournament, or….???
Maybe. I think it’s like a 20% chance. But I’m not positive.
Argh “Grotle” is too similar to “Grovyle”
Grotle is a long forgotten Pokemon.
it is 🙁 lol
just like Lumineon
I love Lumineon 😀
me too… i wanted it to become fairy/water and gain some popularity but they snubbed it. Maractus is also a forgotten pokemon
Dat cry doe >>>>>
I haven’t forgot my Grotle
I honestly forget it exists sometimes, but that is with a lot of middle stage evolutions that you just don’t really think about.
like quilava.
What about Crocanaw?
ill never forget croconaw because it looked like an egg
Monferno is awesome…you get it before the Oreburgh gym and own by using Mach Punch! The memories…
for Prinplup I just used bubble and bubblebeam lol
i never forgot my johto starters lol
emboars middle evolution…
That one I remember, somehow.
Super Mario 3D World is still out of stock, yet A GAMING HEADSET has no problem replenishing its stock!
Koffing gets Toxic Spikes as an Egg Move
Yamask gets Toxic Spikes as an Egg Move
Tepig gets Sucker Punch as an Egg Move
YESS!!!!!
Hai Regi can you breed your Tentacruel for me? I’m trying to get rapid spin tentacruel
Not now breeding chinchar at the momemnt :/
When you can if possible also want a dragonbreath treecko with timid nature? I’m trying to breed one
sucker punch is great for emboar.
cofagrigus will pretty much get a GUARANTEE toxic spikes in atleast twice
hex+toxic spikes= so much win
ghost type = no rapid spin
JESUS…. im off to train one after i masuda treecko lmao
mandibuzz defog says hi:3 but still thats another bonus
which I have :3
jealousy at 100% lol i want to masuda one with perfect IVs but i am stuck with my gastrodon
Does Oshawott get any egg moves?
Haven’t found any yet! I’ll update as soon as I find something
Please let me know! 😀
tailow gets boomburst o.o
