I see. I mean, I'm thinking about it more as an adventure, rather than catching precisely the right stats version of your Pokemon. I like this because if you go on a nostalgia trip and I play these games, you won't lose your Pokemon when you transfer them to Sun/Moon. It's the feeling that you're bringing your 'companions' with you, even if they're changing a bit on the way. They'll still be the right species, have the right nickname, and have the same moves, right?
I doubt this feature is about competitive viable Pokemon (especially since IV and natures will be randomized to some extent) and more about the nostalgia and novelty of moving your Gen I Pokemon to newer games.
We already know this isn't true and Missingno and the Mew glitch both still exist.How it's going to work:
- VC version likely has a couple fixes for the worst bugs (missingno could literally corrupt save files)

I hope they add Gold, Silver and Crystal
Does Pokemon Bank only work one way for R/B/Y or will I be able to transfer Pokemon between my Red and Yellow versions on the same 3DS?
Missingno glitch (the most common one) still works. Since that still works, it's very unlikely they actually fixed anything in these releases -- they have been left untouched.

Probably posted already, but the Bank site confirms that RBY pokemon can ONLY be transfferred to Sun and Moon, not to XYORAS.

Well, Yellow now has access to the surfing game normally, and Jynx is no longer black.
But yeah, glitches definitely remain, especially because fixing many of them would require a lot of reworking in places.
I will cry tears of joy.
I own Gold and Silver, brought them in about 2007 but the batteries are dead I think so save's do not save properly.
My boy/girl No Guard Machamp will finally run wild on that punk Conkeldurr in Gen VII.

Won't be banned in random online battle though hehBanned.
Banned.
Will these be transferable starting tonight when they release?
VC releases I mean
So any Pokemon transferred to Bank from Red/Blue/Green/Yellow will need to have the stats that didn't exist in Generation 1 amended to it, a random ability and gender assigned, the proto-ev/iv system will have to be completely recalculated...
It's like Ship of Theseus: Pokemon.
You're not really transferring you Pokemon forward as you are trading it in for a similar creature of the same species.

Does this still work in the VC version?
I'm pretty sure these Pokemon can't be used online because they hae no pentagon.

You can buy eshop credit direct from PayPal-Gifts in $10 or $20 values.How easy is it to buy from the 3DS store? I've never done it before, can I use PayPal?
Maybe a pikachu from the yellow version will have some uniqueness when transferred up?
That'd be nice. It was a shame to see the Notch-Eared Pichu being left behind in HGSS.

You won't be able to upload him to Pokemon Bank I'd wager.This is really cool!
Maybe Missingno is now a legit Pokémon in Gen 7.
