>FRLG Switch port Home connectivity for October 2026>If you complete the dex for FRLG you will get a celebi in home>Unfortunately not shiny but IS a stable method of getting celebi>You apparently don’t even need to dump your pokemon into Home, it will now somehow detect the pokemon in your game and update the dex for you>Once transferred to another game, FRLG pokemon cannot return to their game of origin>New origin mark: original model GBA icon for gen 3 rerelease pokemon>You might be able to bring the Celebi into FRLG? IdkKinda feels like announcing this on the same day as the bank death announcement is some way to try and soften the blow. Ironically, I still have my Bank Celebi.
>>59503846>Cherish BallEither they made a mockup and forgot that Cherish Ball is not in gen 3 or they are absolutely not allowing that Celebi to actually go into the game.
>>59503933This is the same company that had Poipole in a Beast Ball iirc
>>59503846>If you complete the dex for FRLG you will get a celebi in homeWhere are we getting Mew from, exactly?
>>59504001BDSP
>>59503846>bank shutting downwell fuck. guess i really need to work on getting pksm onto my switch
>>59503933>forgot that Cherish Ball is not in gen 3Anon I...
>>59504001>Where are we getting Mew from, exactly?emerald
>>59504056The official graph has always says Let's Go is a one way transfer but it's not as long as they don't touch another game. It's probably a similar case here.
>>59504064Gen 1 and 2 mons couldn't go from bank back to their games and pretending like this won't be the case for switch era emulation is cope
>>59504067Gen 1 and 2 used a different transfer app while FRLG are going through Home like everything else.
>>59504064there was an asteriks about let's go.
>complete the dexjust the kanto dex? because you cant complete the full gen 3 dex in frlg alone
>>59504056>>59504064They're saying now that you can use HOME's GTS to fill your FRLG dex, which is only possible if it follows the same Let's Go logic
Why can't they turn the Go Safai ball into Safari balls?
>>59504092>They're saying now that you can use HOME's GTS to fill your FRLG dex, which is only possible if it follows the same Let's Go logicserebii shill already clarified that tpci fucked up, japanese is total clear on that point. You can only move your mons to home and that's it.
>>59504093Niantic made them faggy special safari balls with a logo so TECHNICALLY they're a different ball
>>59504001Emerald, it's basically all but confirmed that RSE are getting ports and they'll likely employ the same "give the player the event items after they beat the league" mod that FRLG did.
>>59504094>TPCI confirms we can bring them back to the game and use GTS as long as we don't transfer them to later games>Joe Merrick claims they're wrongThen what the fuck is the point of giving us a non-shiny variant Celebi then? They should have given us a shiny one if they weren't going to let us have it in gen 3
>>59504131you will have it in gen 3 afaik. That's the only way this makes sense. Home reads your save, reads your save file and then deposits a celebi on it. I don't think it will be in home, it will be in gen3
>>59504131Because you can already get Shiny Celebi from hunting it in Virtual Console Crystal. It'll be AFTER Bank closes, thereby cutting off VC Crystal, that they'll consider a game that fits "complete dex, give Shiny Celebi as reward."
>>59504140>I don't think it will be in home, it will be in gen3It's going to be in HOME since you have to redeem the gift from the mobile app
I won't lie anons, I dropped SM and haven't bought a mainline Pokemon game since. What options do I have for storing the most amount of Pokemon from Bank in one game? Or would I have no choice but to split them up across SV/SWSH/BDSP? I'm really not interested in paying for Home's subscription. It's really too bad the latest games have limited national dexes... Spinda, certain shinies like Wishmaker Jirachi, and some SM/USUM legendaries are unobtainable outside of transferring from Home, right? And some can't be transferred to any of the Switch games at all? What a headache.
>>59504344just get pkhex, it's basically a pokemon bank locally. Just hack your 3ds. Why do you even care if you didn't play a pokemon game for like 10 years?
>>59504344>I dropped SMI forgot to say something about it. I really find it sad, that people drop like one of the best gens in the game and then go on and dicksuck shitplaces like sinnoh.
>>59503846>You apparently don’t even need to dump your pokemon into Home, it will now somehow detect the pokemon in your game and update the dex for youHopefully they update the rest of the games to do this, I hate the idea of having to make a whole living dex in every single game
>>59504557Especially in Legends since no breeding.
>>59504344>I'm really not interested in paying for Home's subscription.Unless this is a matter of principles, it's $6 a year.
>>59504433Child your taste is pure shit and you should feel bad about it
>>59503846Let me guess, it will be level 100 so I can't use it for anything but PvP that I don't care about
>>59504823>PVPlol, not even, mythicals are banned in ranked, so there's literally no point to this thing aside from taking up space in your HOME storage
>>59504094>>59504131>Nintendo twitter account referred to the Celebi Event as an 'In-game mystery gift'>Pokemon official site states once a pokemon from FRLG is brought to another game, they will be unable to return to FRLG which implies it will work like the Let's Go games>apparently we can't transfer Celebi or any mon back to FRLG How did they make this shit confusing?
>>59504823it says level 50 right there
>>59504832Still to high level for anything but a last minute team addition just before the Elite 4
>>59504414>>59504433Anon, what? Don't go putting words in my mouth like that. One generation isn't better than another, they're all great, it's just SM had some gameplay elements I didn't like and that was that. I have been wanting to play the Switch mainline games but personally I haven't been too interested in the overall direction the games have been going in lately, so I've passed. Gamefreak isn't catering to me specifically and that's ok. Doesn't help that I was broke as hell up until about two years ago either. That doesn't mean I absolutely don't want to play them though. If the gen 8 or 9 games ever went on sale (not happening) I would be more inclined to buy them.>Why do you even care if you didn't play a pokemon game for like 10 years?There was no real sense of urgency prior to this. If Wind/Waves shapes up to be nice then I would like to try them out and bring my old Pokemon along.>>59504725It's a matter of principles, yes. I didn't pay for Bank when the paid passes were available either. A service as simple as this should be available in its entirety for free.
>>59505025>If the gen 8 or 9 games ever went on sale (not happening) I would be more inclined to buy them.Buy them second hand, it's what I do. At least as long as physical exists, fuck Snoy with a rake
>>59503846>everything else has been a shiny except CelebiWhy though?Does that mean Shiny Celebi is the most popular Mythical Shiny?
>>59505592They are probably saving it for a HOME reward of another game down the line. Regular Celebi "patches" one of the "mythical on demand" holes currently. I suspect WiWa will have Victini and Zarude as a rewards for save files on your Switch
if gba games on the switch 2 can't be transferred back then i won't be able to use frlg mons on the emerald frontier.what the hell is gamefreak smoking?
>>59506165Just get a second switch to trade bro :^)
Why can't FRLG deposit and withdraw like the other games?
>>59504096Niantic wanted to use standard Safari Balls. TPC or GF (unclear whom) dictated they be GO Safari Balls.
>>59506285Laziness I'd say. They will probably shield themselves on: "if it touches other games then it changes the Gen 3 internal data structure yadda yadda" but they can account for these things like they do with differing movesets between games which HOME keeps track. That or they REALLY want to enforce and strangle places each mon can travel, from some twisted idea of control or just to reduce work for themselves. I'm sure they would be delighted if they could limit mons to their origin game and HOME like they are doing with PLZA (and in a way, Champions)
>>59504092>which is only possible if it follows the same Let's Go logicnot really, GO has one way transferring but you can still fill out HOME's GO dex through trading
>>59503933>or they are absolutely not allowing that Celebi to actually go into the game.they would have it just show up as regular pokeball in game, we've already seen this with moving hisui mons into swsh
>>59504131So you can complete your dex in HOME, they dont give a fuck about game dexes now. Games are for catching pokemon and importing pokemon to HOME only.
>>59505592Celebi is one of the few Pokémon completely unobtainable in the Gen 3 games. Mew has an event in Emerald where you can shiny hunt it. The other is Jirachi which is most likely the reward for completing Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald. After that you can complete the entire national dex on Switch without the GameCube games.
>>59505647Hope so, especially if WiWa turn out good (unlikely) since I skipped SwSh
>>59506468Celebi was distributed on the JP Colo bonus disc. My first Celebi is from the 10th Anni Journey Across America event, which was a gen 3 distro. I'm sure Pokemon Center NY had some Celebi distros as well.
>>59506593he means within the games themselves
>>59506468Jirachi and Celebi are found on Pokemon Ranch bonus discs (US and EU/Japan)Mew is Japan only until the Emerald port shows up Ruby and Sapphire port will have the Eon TicketEmerald will have the Old Sea Map, not sure if they will shiny lock Mew and Emerald can also take the Eon Ticket, Aurora Ticket, Mystic Ticket no problemCompleting the Gen 3 Pokedex back in the day was absolute hell
>>59506629the jp colosseum bonus disc is not an "event". you can still obtain it completely legitimately to this day.
>>59507048It amazes me how you think this is just something any motherfucker can obtain easily.
>>59507067it's around 200€ on ebay.i haven't recovered from the expense yet
>>59503846I already have shiny Celebi from GBC but what's the point of this Celebi if you cannot move it over to FRLG?
>>59507191to fill your shiny dex on HOMEFRLG doesn't have a shiny dex like the latest games so it doesn't make a difference if the celebi is shiny or notif you just want to use it ingame, then yeah you can't
