In a trailer uploaded on Pokémon Japan’s official YouTube channel, it was announced that support for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS titles Pokémon Sun & Moon would be coming to the storage application Pokémon Bank, also for the 3DS in January 2017. This is two months after the games’ November launch.
Pokémon Bank allows players to transfer Pokémon from Generation V games to VI and now to VII as well.

this is debatable because i train my 6 team competititve pokemon and transfer it to the new game (i did it on ORAS) because i dont like many of the new pokemon or i want to start and play later competitive with the pokemon i care with in the journey. now they force me to play with the ones on this game. still even if i like them, i wont use them competitively because of evs and ivs. so debatable …
Wont you be able to trade between OR/AS and Su/Mo?
That’s actually the one thing that really disappointed me. I have two Pokemon, which I really wanted to use in my new Alolan teams. They’re not even competitive. They’re just my favourite shinies, which I’ve bred especially to celebrate Sun and Moon. I am not too fond of the new Pokemon tbh. And now I will have to use them anyway.
All those dislikes = everyone who was looking forward to starting their Alola journey with transferred Pokemon 🙁
