Old Pokemon General(RIP)

Sounds awesome!

I'm frankly not surprised. People give away weak Pokemon and ask for level 7 Xerneas' and Yveltals.

People are cray

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

Well, I've seen a lot of people ask for lvl 7 Reshirams, Zekroms, Genesects, Keldeos, Meloettas, etc.

****oron lol

it did that automatically I didn't put that in O_O

Yeah, people are just kinda stupid in the GTS

 

[xxkaylabby]

i'm so excited for the new pokemon x and y

 

[Jizg]

so how do you guys feel knowing migration is highly unlikely for X and Y?

There're 3 months left and no confirmation on it...the last thing they said was that it was "being worked on" and the game should basically be done at this point.

Would be pretty upset, spent a ton of time breeding/EV training/grinding my team up and would be pretty annoyed if i couldn't continue to use that team. But i guess it wouldn't be too big of a deal.

I definitely wouldn't say it's "highly unlikely" as there's capability to connect 3DS software with the DS games (via the Dream Radar). True, we won't be able to do it directly like in the past from the GBA or from DS to DS, but I guarantee they'll create some sort of software to allow migration post-game. The last time Pokemon didn't allow for trading between past games in Gen III, most people got extremely pissed off and some people even quit the series. I'd be absolutely shocked and disappointed if Gamefreak did this again.

I don't think they will though; the capability is definitely there as we've seen with the Dream Radar. My guess is they'll create some sort of new Pokemon Box-esque software for the 3DS to allow for migration to Gen VI.

I hope we don't have it :/

They would be making a huge mistake if they didn't allow us to transfer our Pokemon to X/Y. Just as bad as the mistake to bring animal tracks into NL.

 

[Jizg]

If they do then how are they going to rework hidden power?

New fairy type addition means they have to add in new IVs.

What was the way they transferred from D/P/P to B/W(2)? I don't remember how they did that one.....

I don't remember what it was called but it involved using DS download play. There was some building that allowed you to catch your old Pokemon via a minigame.

I've mentioned this a few times but nobody other than you seems to have agreed.
you've mentioned already a point I was going to bring up, thank you. They would have to rework hidden power because of the new types. I figure they're going to make everyone start over, which isn't a big deal. It'll help with the GTS too.

That way we won't have any level 1-9 legendary pokemon people can use to break the system with. I'm really rather hoping they don't have any sort of carry-over for this reason.

 

[Jizg]

Whos to say people wont be requesting level 1 Yvetals though :/

If there will be level 1 Yvetals.
Hopefully they were smart enough to realize having level one legendaries was a bad idea. Otherwise they need to put a filter on the GTS to not let you trade 1-9 legendaries.

I have Pokemon all the way back from Emerald. That would be like 8 or so years of my life wasted raising and training them. I would be absolutely furious if they didn't include a way for me to transfer my Pokemon over. I would probably quit Pokemon if that happens.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

They should put a automatic level-switcher on the GTS so people can't go below level 50 Or whatever level they will be for Yveltals and Xerneas.

So far of Gen VI I'm liking Froakie best, as you can tell by my avatar.
