Pokémon Bank Returns in Japanese eShop

by

Pokémon Bank, the storage solution for Pokémon X & Y that many of us are waiting eagerly for, has returned to the Japanese and Korean 3DS eShops. Unfortunately, still no release plans have been announced for the United States or Europe. An update has also been released for Bank, as well as its companion app PokéTransporter.

Now English speaking fans can look on in envy.

  12. Breeding for IV’s, natures, and egg moves can really be a pain. I’m hoping to get some good battles with you guys this weekend with my very first IV bred team! 🙂

    • so I have a dilemma, I came home from school to find that my mom moved my 3ds and charger, and I haven’t been able to talk to her since, it’s been about 4 hours, so if I get it tonight I will let you know!

    • You’ll find it’s pretty much worth it, and not only because your Pokemon are better. After your first few 5 IV’s, you will find that future projects are easier because you can use male 5 IV’s of another species but same egg group to breed another species (as long as it has genders).

  13. Does anybody know of this really old (yet amazing) cartoon/show called Argai: The prophecy? I watched it when I was little, and only recently found out what it was called in English. Sadly there is no English dub/sub of it. :/

  14. i dont know how to feel about claydol, can tank a special attack but is too slow to use dual screens, sad cause he is sounds great on paper

    • I think for the “first turn” slow isn’t that much of a problem when the opponent is forced to switch. Trying for a second screen will have claydol take a hit though.

      I don’t tend to like faster screen setters though, when they are fainted or severly hurt after putting up one screen, it’s not that great.

      • well claydol right now is 1-1, he set up a light screen that later saved me from my t-tar being OHKO by solarbeam charizard-y but then i wanted to rapid spin agaisnt a mamoswine and he got OHKO by an icicle crash and well he was useless and i lost

        • Since as you said, Claydol is a special wall, I probably shouldn’t expect that as a good test of its abilities. As long as you try to reflect/screen in front of a special sweeper it should be fine. Otherwise there are other double screeners that work like Bronzong.

    • there’s people who have hatched 1000+ egg’s to get a shiny noibat. people who did 1800+ wild encounters just for a shiny pumpkaboo that isn’t even IV’d… it all comes down to luck. and you have to take into consideration that you don’t have the oval or shiny charm which quite actually makes a tremendous difference.

      • I know it comes down, and I don’t have any luck at all, so what is the point of trying to get a shiny that requires luck which I have none of. Until I get that shiny charm I quit masuda methoding. It is very tedious

        • yeah my cousin said the only shiny he’s ever found in the history of his gaming is Shiny Gyarados, and that has a set shiny encounter lol. And he’s much older than I am. So yeah, I dunno.,.. some people get fortunate, like I. I caught a lot of shinies and traded them all for diff ones, I wish I could’ve kept them. I like having pokes with my own ID/OT

          Reply

      • Not only that but so many people have been finding shinies quickly, just look at you (before shiny charm) you found so many shinies
