About pokemon regarding pokebank and transfering.

So, I know that we'll be able to transfer pokemon over from ORAS and X&Y, but I've heard that we'll be able to transfer pokemon from the the virtual counsel games Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow. My question is how will that be possible? It confuses me how the pokemon will get natures and IVs and genders and stuff like that.

  • Yeah, I'm guessing it will be randomized.

  • It appears Game Freak was stumped on that very thing for quite some time considering they still haven't updated Pokemon Bank and they won't until January.

  • At least for IVs and EVs, there's probably a formaula they can use to convert them. For IVs, they can probably do something like (IV*2)+1 The rest will probably be randomized, but who knows. I really want to look into how they do it once the update launches.

  • Randomized, huh? I have like 10 Jynx in my Yellow file that know Metronome and I'm hoping that one will have either timid or modest. Hm... I wonder how the game will react to glitched level 1/143 pokemon I have. Level 1 Slowbro I have will probably stay the same and the 143 Marowak I have will probably be brought down to 100.

  • I know ^.^ I have a lv 149 Mewtwo lol. I hope people can transfer over a Kangaskan with Fly (Glitch)

  • Glitches will probably end up being blocked. Just like when transferring from Gen 5, problematic pokemon would remain in Box 1 and you would get the message "Attention! Some of the pokemon in your box could not be transferred."

  • What was the problem in generation 5?

  • My friend had that probly when she tried transfering some Pokemon to her Pokémon Y game from Pokemon white which was odd. I know my friend does not h@cked since I am close friends with her. Anyways my friend does not have her gen 5 game anymore. I feel really bad for my friend since she really wanted to tranfer most Pokemon.

  • That part is too bad. I was looking forward to finally getting a Mew by transferring it from Red, but nope! I guess my wonderful adventures will continue...

    Yeahs0
  • She did tranfer the once she could transfer though. Maybe ones she got were from a random online trade and not legit. That's strange since I know that in Gen 5 there were checkers that's preventing from trading those kind of Pokémon. Back when I was playing gen 5, I would get a message that you can't trade for this Pokémon of some sort.
