About Me

Hi, I'm Chris. I'm old and the internet confuses me. This is the first account I've ever made for a Wiki and I don't typically make account for forums because all the drama associated with Wikis and Forums.

I'm an artist, and currently work out of deviantART for money. You can typically find me by Googling Yamitora1

I've been with Pokémon practically since the beginning. starting with the anime, then moving onto the games.

My Pokémon

I typically catch male Pokémon; its not because of a preference or for prejudice reasons, but because that's what I mostly come across.

Observations of Gen VI

Mega Evolution

So far, it looks like humanoid/bipedal Pokémon are the ones to most likely get Mega Evolutions. Also MegaBlaziken has a X in its design and MegaLucario has a Y in its design. And if you look at Lucario's dreadlocks, they have a resemblance to Yveltal's design. Mewtwo's Mega Evolution also that the Omega Ω symbol in its design.

Pokémon Bank

I don't see anything necessarily bad about Nintendo doing this outside of this now making the possibility of a Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire remake very unlikely.

Still, you have to give Nintendo credit for remaining free this long, and who knows the account you make to set up the Pokémon Bank might be usable for other services with little or no cost extra. Plus, thank of it this way. Its going be about rough estimate $5 a year. On average, a new Pokémon game comes out every 2.5-3.5 years. By the time the next games are upon us, you'll only have had to pay $15 more or less and are ready to transfer all the Pokémon you caught in Gens V and Vi to Gen VII. We all know 7 is a lucky and awesome number, just ask Sony and Square soft about Final Fantasy VII wink wink.

I don't see this as being a one trick pony, and who knows, maybe down the road they'll have a free version of the Pokémon Bank. In the old days there was no such thing as a totally free checking account. Now banks offering this service are a dime a dozen. Sooner or later the service will expand. Who knows, you might be able to use the Pokémon in your bank account to play with in games outside of the handhelds. A Virtual console RPG is likely. Plus, maybe this service will give people with other Pokémon franchise games like Rumble and such new features and perks. I know I and many people are hoping for a Stadium/Collosium type game to hit the Wii U and we all saw the Pokkén Tournament stuff. The bank might allow us to use any of our Pokémon from Gens V and VI in it such games.

Now the one downside to this is any Pokémon caught in gens III and VI will be harder to get to the newer games. Also, once transferred, can you get a Pokémon back onto BW 1&2? In the past transfers to later games were irreversible starting with features like Pal park and whatnot. Also, is there a certain task that is needed to be done to transfer Pokémon into the bank? Because usually you have to beat the game(s) before you get such features. I'd hate for people to prematurely sign up and pay for the bank, and not be able to use it just yet.

My one big fear about this all is what happens to your Pokémon in the event there is a Server crash, a hacking, or your subscription expires. It would be a shame to lose even one Pokémon, so I hope they do regular back ups and provide a guarantee that any Pokémon lost for any reason will be replaced Free of Charge. I know if I get a shinny Charizard, I will be extremely Irate if it were to get lost in some kind of server crash or hacked and taken. Nintendo best provide some kind of safety net, less they crash and burn.
