Deleting it just feels sorta... wrong. Pokemon Bank: http://www.pokemonbank.com/en-us/ It's been a thing for a couple years now, I'm surprised you haven't heard of it! It does exactly what you want, you can transfer pokemon from your game and withdraw them to any other game for like $5 per year. I think it's for XY and ORAS only, though you can deposit pokemon from Gen V.

They'll probably just Time Machine it and go "hey these moves are illegal in Gen 3 onwards, you gotta remove them" when you try to transfer stuff to Gen 7.

Kelp Plankton posted:Does anyone have a list of Pokemon who could learn moves in R/B/Y that they couldn't afterwards? Is there anything potentially weird or really good to be snagged from Gen 1? I don't know about level up changes, but there are a few TMs that never got carried over. I don't know if I'd call any of them 'really good' though; the list has been picked over in other gens for things to give to move tutors. All that's really left are Horn Drill and Fissure as maybe-good, and then maybe possibly Mimic, and then, uh, Pay Day?

so with pokemon bank compatability, any chance of online trades/battles with gen 1? being able to battle online with gen 1 would make it the greatest Pokemon game ever.

Which suggests that the code to convert them will be in Sun/Moon but Sun/Moon will be compatible with XORYAS.

If it was this much work to get the R/B/Y pokemon working in the new games, so much so that they're not converted by Pokemon Bank itself but by Sun/Moon, anyone feel like the odds of Gold/Silver/Crystal VC releases in the future are pretty likely?

So Nintendo should have chosen a better phrase to announce sun and moon because now I have people on facebook who think the phrase "it all comes together for a brand new adventure" means to confirm that sun and moon will have every region in it. I'm now angry because someone called me retarded because it so obviously does. I was so happy before that, the direct was awesome

Seeing as how Sun = Red and Moon = Blue, I wonder if this means Sun and Moon will be in Kanto again.

Diamonds are white and shiny like the Sun and the Moon = pearl, so DPPt remake confirmed.  No wait the Sun is gold and the Moon is silver, looks like we're going back to Johto!

GonSmithe posted:No. Great Pokemon and great endgame, terrible leveling curve and pokemon to catch as you go. I had some hard nostalgia for them when I bought it and I don't think I ever played completely through my copy of SS.I love XY so definitely go to that after White. But there are so many legendaries I don't have. I might just play through to catch them. Ugh

Brother Entropy posted:real talk i'm actually a little disappointed we're not getting a Z, x&y had some real flaws that could've been improved in a third version I just think it's weird they built up all this hype for Zygarde and had Z's featured prominently in a lot of promotional material, only for that to all mean absolutely nothing. Plus all the cool places that you couldn't go into that will forever just be pointless, like the Power Plant. Dabir posted:Which suggests that the code to convert them will be in Sun/Moon but Sun/Moon will be compatible with XORYAS. Yeah it sounds like you can eventually send R/B/Y Pokemon to ORAS and X/Y, just that they have to be sent to Sun/Moon first.

Hold the phone. Did we ever get game news about Zygarde's forms? like, did a model ever show up or was it all just anime art and screens? I'm trying to remember but all I can recall is that it was announced alongside Ash Greninja, so now i'm thinking that it was never even intended to be used in the games since the whole percentage thing wouldn't translate well. Z is Anime Exclusive?
