I’m doing Gen 3-5 to Gen 6-7 now and it’s already a kafkaesque nightmare. For some reason you need two separate apps, an internet connection, an tool that normally costs money (free this month only) and you can only transfer one box at a time. It only reads one specific box in BWB2W2, and since I have Black (and not B2W2), I have to move Pokémon one by one into this box. For each new box, you have to remove and insert both games again so you’re basically constantly going back and forth between multiple apps, changing which game is in the 3DS, and which Pokémon box you are looking at. It almost makes me want to go back to having to play mini games to transfer my Pokémon.

16:50 the reason you can't transfer back is not due to flags, but because each pokemon in your storage is it's own individual file, with each game they upgrade the version of the pokemon's file, so when you've transferred to bank it's upgraded to the gen 7 version and thus the older game won't be able to read it's data anymore.

You can move Pokemon between XY and ORAS as long as they don't learn any moves/items exclusive to ORAS. Same thing applies to S/M. You can't transfer exclusive Pokemon, moves, or items in S/M to Gen 6... But you can move a Gen 6 Pokemon to and from Gen 6 and 7 as long as they don't get an exclusive move/item. The files only get changed (upgraded in your words, which isn't necessarily true) when you transfer them to Home, hence why the move is permanent.

Don't forget that Pokemon bank is now inaccessible unless you had it before nintendo shut down the 3ds store, Hate nintendo sometimes fml

A few errors: - Bank doesn't automatically have a free month when you download/use it for the first time; it only had a free month after its launch and after Home's launch. Outside of these times there is no trial period and you have to pay to use it. - Home doesn't have any free-month trial or promotion; it just has a "Basic" plan and a "Premium" plan. Basic is always one box only and doesn't allow Bank transferring (though it does allow Let's Go transferring and SwSh transferring). Premium is $3/month or $16/year and gives you 200 boxes and Bank transferring. - Nintendo Switch Online is not required to use Home.

Yeah, in general, I think that it is easier to just buy the new game and trade with other players

Raphnet also sells his N64 to PC USB controller converter. It's main purpose is to connect your N64 controller to a PC, but with his drivers and tools, you can read anything from the controller's expansion pak directly to the computer, including the N64 Transfer Pak. So, if you already have the N64 Transfer Pak (came with Pokemon Stadium) and a controller with your First Generation game, you can use this adapter to dump your save file to your PC. AND you have an N64 controller for your computer! :)

I got a headache just remembering how pain-staking it was when I first transfered my gen 4 Pokémon all the way up to to Bank all the way back in 2014. Really, I checked my old DS saves and I realized I didn't move all of them precisely because of how obnoxious the whole process is.

Seeing the game prices from a year ago compared to today hurts my soul

14:39 omg so many memories as a kid (like 11 or 12 years old) I was doing stuff on that website on my computer and then pokemon appeared on my game: Munna, dreams, berries, minigames, a customizable house (I think) . So much love and so many feels. I miss those times 😢💕

For those worried about Hidden Abilties from Dream World there is a solution. There are ability capsules in sword and shield but there is a caveat, a lot of gen 2-4-5 can't be transferred because of Dexit. So a lot of pokemon got left out.

Congratz on 200K subs, thank you for all the helpfull guides and intresting challenges^^.

I subscribed because you earned that one guy, I have done all of this transferring I am a seasoned pokemon vet and it's not a easy process but you are right this is exactly how the "legal" way is to do all the transferring up from the older versions withought cheating or trading from foreign countries to get legendaries that aren't available to US

You can get another manaphy in ranger, you have to wipe the save and replay the entire game though. It is entirely possible to get multiple manaphy's from one game.

I appreciate that they let us do this and the flavor text of the Pokémon traveling through time and space to be with us is cool but I’d rather just catch the Pokémon I want in the newer games and give it the same nickname I gave it in the original game. For example, I had a Bulbasaur named Coldsaur in Fire Red but Professor Sexymore just straight up gives you a Kanto starter in XY so I just chose Bulbasaur and also named it Coldsaur then headcannoned it being the same Bulbasaur I had in Fire Red lol. Having your own headcannons in Pokémon is always fun, plus this way is just more convenient for me. The only problem is the new one might not share the same things like gender, nature, IV’s, capture location, flavor text, etc. And it’s harder if it’s rarer or a shiny, but depending on how you play the game, most of those things can be pretty negligible and they’re usually just things you check out once then never look at again. I did hear that you can change IV’s and natures in swsh though so at least those 2 things can be fixed. I can usually just get all the Pokémon I want in the newer games, and if not, I’ll just wait for a distribution event or trade it or cheat it in or something or I can just distract myself with the new ones lol. The only reason I would transfer a Pokémon form an old game is for the sentimental value/attachment/nostalgia/bragging rights/experience/collection/novelty of it. That being said, I love that we can do this! It really makes the games feel much more connected and sort of harmonic??? in a way. I don’t know of any video game franchises that are as intertwined and interconnected as this one. Heck, I might just transfer my old black 2 team to Pokémon Home. The idea of showing off my Pokémon to my friends on my phone is pretty appealing to me. Awesome video as always btw

literallu just did this with my shiny living dex from 3 years ago lol

I did all this last year while Ribbon Mastering a Farfetch'd (actually inspired in part by your Forretress video, lol) and seeing the whole process laid out again makes me kind of worried for the future: For all the previous generations, the transfer methods are future-proofed; even though it was 2019, I could still connect my GBA to my Gamecube, or send Pokemon from one DS to the other, or whatever. As long as hardware like batteries or anything don't fail on me, I could go do it all over again right now, and do it anytime I want for years down the road. But in gen 6 with Pokemon Bank, even though I will admit it's extremely convenient, it's also a service that could end sometime in the future, similar to the Wii Shop's closure making Pokemon Ranch unavailable. We don't really know how long the service will exist, and it's quite likely they simply won't provide any other method once it does. I dunno, something about that makes me feel sad. I have to wonder if maybe they could have made Bank a downloadable program with a one-time purchase fee or something instead.

Is it weird to say I have been waiting for this video

Very good explanation. Lucky for me, I did this as the years went by so now I just have to move from Bank to Home. So many Pokemon can't be transferred into Sword and Shield though, that's disappointing but at least they will all be in one place.

Thanks JohnDaddy for a new video

AFAIK, you can indeed transfer data from the GBC and GBA using the GBC link cable as you can boot GB/C games into the GBA and trade or battle without issues. The reason you cannot transfer Pokémon from Gen 1-2 to Gen 3 games is the size and structure of the Pokémon "files". Best regards!

Yeah that video discouraged me quite hard... For quite some time I wanted to do "generational living dexes", so one with the Gen 3, one with the Gen 4 and so on. I do have almost everything needed but transferring them up is going to kill me. Oh and Im gonna catch EVERYTHING with regular Pokéballs and deliberately wont use Colosseum for the Johto starters as the icing on this fucked up cake

Just a regular living dex (without trading online) is much more of a challenge than it looks. You end up realizing there are random Pokemon you never cared about (Nosepass in my case) that the only way you can access is through swarms or the Johto Safari Zone or some other convoluted obscure method. So you go to the ends of the earth and back for a rock with a big nose that you never wanted in the first place.

@@StarkMaximum Its not necessarily hard just... tedious. Only using the main games and regular Pokéballs is on me, but the stupid catching games for transfering up in Gen 4&5 are gonna be a pain in the ass.

You can get the Johto starters using Island Scan in Gen 7 IIRC

You won't be able to do it legitly for Gen 3. How will you get a legitimate Deoxys/Jirachi/Mew without hacking the game in Gen 3?

I specificly bought White to transfer my Mons from Emerald to Sun when it released. That was a nightmare

Congrats on 200k!

I clicked on this randomly and realized I actually have had a copy of Pokemon Box sitting on my shelf for years. I had no idea it was worth $300. Thanks for the heads up!

I'd wait, Home has been messing up a lot of people's Pokemon. It wiped all my Hidden Abilities back to normal abilities during my transfer.

Jesse McFarland-Ward the parent Pokémon needs the hidden ability so if he breeds from a normal it’s not possible

The alternative version of going from gen 1/2 hard cartridges to gen 8/home is to have ez carts for gba and gbc, with sds and load emulators in. Use a Mega Memory cartridge to back up your real game, load that save on the emulator card, pull that sd, load the mons sorted in am editor on pc and ensure they have reasonable g3+ stats/abilities/ivs, important them to a g3 emulator's save, put that on an sd and to a gba cartridge and either then trade to real g3 copied or just send them to gen 4 directly the normal way

Congrats on 200K!

2024 prices just entered the chat

I don’t have nearly enough gens to do that.

Im so glad I have all my old consoles and my old games , and get to do this all for free now 🙌🏻

Congrats on 200k! 😄

now how long will pokemon bank last? im gonna have to start my collect them all journey soon because i can't see bank lasting too much longer...

After collecting every game in the mainline franchise I can't mention how frustrating it is that I can't transfer from the original physical copies of GSC. One of the carts has a shiny mew and yet I can't transfer it.

Amazing video John

Congrats on 200k

I did the whole process. In fact, this is how I first learned about Johnstone's KZread page. His original "how easy is it to transfer" videos were very helpful in getting my entire collection to Gen 7. While I had a lot of the games already, I will admit I spent probably a good 400-500 bucks to get all the games I wanted. And I spent a year (alongside a full time job) getting every single Pokemon. I played through Red/Gold/Emerald/LeafGreen/Platinum/HeartGold/Black/White2/X/OmegaRuby/Sun/UltraMoon/Let'sGoPikachu to get all 807 Pokemon and some PKGO to get Meltan/Melmetal. Seriously. It took me a year. Biggest frustrations were definitely trying to catch all the 1% encounters in Gen 2, all the unskippable cutscenes in Gen 7 and the sheer number of Pokemon in Gen 5.

actually another large reason for not being able to transfer from gen 2 to gen 3 is due to the overhaul of the dv (now iv) system

Thanks for the video, now I can transfer my Pokémon Crystal shiny Smoochum to Pokémon Sword and Shining Pearl. Thanks bro!

Great video. You covered the process of transferring Pokemon from Gen 3 all the way to Pokemon Home accurately, however you actually can't transfer all Pokemon to Sword and Shield from Home as there is no National Dex available in those games. You can only transfer those listed in the Galar dex. Apologies if someone already mentioned this.

I should mention that some of what he said about Pokémon HOME was incorrect: The service does NOT have a free trial, and instead has a free “basic” plan that has the same features as he said. Also, there is no restriction on what systems can use HOME.

The metallic rose DS I believe is the chrome one, it had a chrome top and only 2000 were made. If not the dude is on some goofy town.
