Please Stand By. You Broke The eShop (And Bank)

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.

    • I first put a shiny bergmite that I didn’t need anymore in the GTS and requested Groudon. Once I got a Groudon I deposted it back in for Kyogre. Once I got Kyogre I put it back in for Latios. Once I got Latios I put it back in for Ho-Oh. Once I got Ho-Oh I put it back in… went through all the regi’s… and currently on Azelf which I haven’t received yet

          • i think imma start that right now c:
            what do you suggest i look for first and then chain to? like i know some legendaries are worth more than other ones

          • and its even easier cause you don’t need to get Mew/Jirachi/Celebi (event legendaries like Keldeo etc) to get shiny charm. You only need the regular legendaries found in-game and I’m almost complete with them lol.

            Most GTS’s seem to be seeking Crown Beasts (raikou entei suicune) or Kyogre/Groudon/Rayquaza. I deposited Raikou for Suicune and went to check summary and literally got one 1 second later…

            I dunno what kind of Pokemon you can use to start it off with though. I started it off with a shiny bergmite I didn’t need cause I have a shiny avalugg

          • oohh o.o
            i meant like what do you suggest me to ask for first o: like imma send out a shiny mawile but i dunno which legendary to ask for first XD

          • ask for a 3rd Gen legendary. Their highly saught after. As in Rayquaza/Kyogre/Groudon. With those you can chain through all the legends.
