Please pay so we can ensure the service will work properly.

Oh, you thought we'd really buy seperate servers? Lol.

Boom.

 

[LumpOfCole]

I only want a Koffing. Nintendo, pls.

They would obviously put the download for Pokemon Bank on the eShop servers. Pokemon Bank was working fine.

Ahahahahahaha. No. It wasn't.

 

[DaBoss]

No. It wasn't.

Wait, then how did people use it earlier? There are Pokemon Bank Pokemon available on GTS now.

It was possible but it was error coding like crazy.

It took me three hours to transfer four boxes, and that was before the Nintendo Network went really bad.

 

[Dr. Feel Good]

Gives me time to actually play through Pokemon White 2 and start picking up guys who aren't in X and Y. Pretty crazy that despite the breakdown of the Network, some people were still able to get complete Dexes over and have all 718 in X and Y!

Interestingly, the NOA press release for this week's downloads includes Pokémon Bank, but that may have been scheduled. We won't know for sure until tomorrow.

I really hope they don’t post pone this. I have been looking forward to this for way too long.

 

[Busaiku]

Thank goodness I got my Whimsicott.
Just a shame I can't have it in the Pokeball of my choice for a while longer.

 

[HappyBivouac]

This is going to make pokebank pokemon insanely valuable on the gts...

Spoiler

anyone want to hook me up?

 

[MasterSheen]

I was just about to start up Black 2 to organize my Pokemon in preparation for the Bank

sigh

Hopefully its just a short delay until after the holidays.

The problem is the Transporter hack check is the worst one yet. We have things like unreleased abilities and shiny DW Pokémon being allowed through - you don't need an advanced hack check to reject those.

You aren't allowed to use the unreleased HA Pokemon in battles against other people so its pretty much a nonissue.

 

[OMG Aero]

Delay is now official.

 

[Andrefpvs]

Delay is now official.

 

[Oswen]

This is sad, i was looking forward to the bank for this weekend.
Oh well hopefully it wont be too long for the new date, hoping for next Thursday.

Try to hook yourself up. Its not bad, keep spamming certain ones until you get a reasonable offer, get and breed that reasonable offer and build up your collection (diversify offers too if you keep seeing certain ones are a niche *cough* Elmgym *cough*). Starters are fairly common.

Tip on GTS is the Y button opens the filter for "Pokemon you have etc"

This one kinda sounds like it could've been added to the list just for some PR. Then again, I suppose there is a bunch of new 3DS owners excited to try demos. (Though why did they have to remind they're free?)

It is relevant since to get free demos you have to make an NNID (great idea there Nintendo) and so you are adding load that would not have existed otherwise.

The problem is the Transporter hack check is the worst one yet. We have things like unreleased abilities and shiny DW Pokémon being allowed through - you don't need an advanced hack check to reject those.

I think they're going for zero maintenance. Hack check on bank, hidden abilities are legit because they might be released in the future. It should be better but..

I still think the best anti-hack is not to make the most commonly hacked things so elusive.

Damnit, Nintendo.
