i've never had the means or motivation to transfer pokes between generations, i've always just started each game fresh.

i do still have my old gen 1, 2 and 4 cartridges around somewhere. probably the only ones i'd want to transfer are maybe my mewtwo and my squad of like 8 level 100 squirtles that i have on my Blue save file for some reason.

It's possible to transfer up from HG and SS. It requires a second DS/3DS and a copy of a Gen 5 game- Black, White, Black 2 or White 2. Once you have them in the Gen 5 game, you can transfer them through Pokemon Bank, and you'll be able to use Bank to bring them into the newest games coming out in November.

*Using Pokemon Transporter, which is a separate app that you can download from within Pokemon Bank.

Unfortunately, Gens 1 & 2 are not compatible with any of the games from Gen 3 onward. They changed too many things in Gen 3 to be able to bring older pokemon forward. That's why they made Fire Red and Leaf Green, since it was the only way to get a bunch of Gen I pokemon at the time.
(Because of this, there's a lot of speculation about how the transfer from the VC Gen 1 games to Gen VII will work.)

We're already at 38 totally new ones with 8 Alolan forms.

This is the first time I've ever followed Pokemon release hype so closely. Does The Pokemon Company ever leave some Pokemon as surprises to be found in the game, or will we eventually officially know about all of them prior to release?

Holy poo poo Dudleycrab owns so hard.

At first I was sure it was a mantis shrimp because of the punching theme but given the body shape and the fact that it's clearly a crab I'm going to guess it's supposed to be a Coconut Crab.

Which is equally cool, tbh.

They revealed like 75% of the new Pokemon before X & Y's release.

They revealed literally every single new Mega Evolution before ORAS' release.

We didn't find out about Goodra until a goon got the game early and leaked it a few days before X/Y's launch.
