How to Transfer Old Pokemon to Nintendo Switch (2024 update)

[@andrewl7148]

You can transfer red yellow blue but its extremely convoluted and difficult there is a video showing how, its probably not worth it though

[@ralphralph1346]

pksm (fanmade pokemon save managar) can transfer pokemon from gen 1 to 7 quite easily and then you can transfer it to bank, then home and then scarlet and violet

@@ralphralph1346 how can you do it???

[@ralphralph1346]

@@dimitrisbatzios6042 its pretty simple, if you have a 3ds, hack it and install pksm on it and then you can use it to transfer pokemon between saves and once you have it on gen 7 use bank to take the pokemon to home (you need to be fast im pretty sure banks being shut down relatively soon)

[@killerwolff3048]

​@dimitrisbatzios6042 usually it's copying the save from the cartridge over to virtual console version on 3ds

[@Hardivh]

You just need one DS Fat/Lite and one 2ds/3ds to do everything (GBA onwards)

[@zeromechdragon700]

Yay, I can still do ribbon master anhilape and a few other ribbon masters ty so much for video.

I have always transferred Pokémon with my old grey gamboy to gamboy color. I have that cord that allows you to do that.

Sorry for my bad English
Right now i am buying a nintendo ds and a 3ds console
I don’t know if the 3ds has pokebank inside
Will I be able to trade pokemon like you do in the video? Or its too late ?

[@brienemembrere6528]

@@alexdanci4216, pokebank is still active right now so you can still transfer from 3DS to Switch as long as you have it installed. I believe you can also install it through modding your 3ds as well, there will be video tutorials in youtube about modding.

​@@brienemembrere6528 how does pokebank work on a modded 3ds? i am going to buy a 3ds console and a pokemon white 2
after modding the console and installing the pokebank app, do i need an account os something like that?

[@killuaz7004]

Why we cant sends iur pokemon to pokemon hom forever ?! They must guide us to way to do that in future 😡

[@Chainsawman447]

They will probably make remake or put the old pokemon game on the eshop

[@ralphralph1346]

@@Chainsawman447 lets go pikachu and eevee are remakes of gen 1 iirc so they wont make a remake or put them on the eshop any time soon

[@codyjohnson8113]

Could you buy a 3ds with bank and transporter already on it and still use it? Can you even setup a new account on it?

[@ralphralph1346]

@@codyjohnson8113 You could buy one with them already on it, you couldn't setup a new account though (I think)

[@Chainsawman447]

@@codyjohnson8113 yes but you would rather homebrew it

[@tydevinci]

If I have bank I can still transfer from bank to home ?

Really? I thought Pokémon bank shut down after May

[@Rons-Fansubs]

@@creeper4481 The servers are still up for that, though I still suggest getting every Pokémon and the shinies up to Gen 7, cause it's only a matter of time.

It's unfortunate now it's gone

[@xHavki]

Didn't Pokemon bank and poke transporter shut down in april of this year?

[@brienemembrere6528]

It is still currently working.

[@zeromechdragon700]

eShop services but it stays active indefinitely if you had a paid membership before closing down.

[@casperbeats3214]

I modded and region changed a new 3Ds but whenever I open pokemon bank I just get an error and can’t access it, anyone knows how to fix that?

[@brienemembrere6528]

What does the error say? Sometimes it's the internet connection.
