>paying $5 a year for less than 1MB of cloud storage

Surely nobody is this stupid, right?

I understand using it during the trial period to transfer all your Gen V stuff, but why would anyone actually pay for this shit?

So you can start a new game without losing all your pokemon?

You'll be sorry when the day comes and you lose your Pokemon X/Y cartridge in a fire, earthquake, tsunami, tornado, or hurricane and all your best pokebros are dead and not safe in the clouds.

Sorry other people choose how to spend their money differently than you do. You couldn't eat a meal at Burger King for less than $5.

I plan on using the free trial to see how it is, but I'll probably pay the $5 so I can keep importing AR'd Pokemon form Black so I don't have to waste time breeding up parents for IVs and egg moves in X. All those perfect Dittos and other parents will make breeding piss-easy with the Destiny Knot, won't even need to bother with Pokegen this time around.

Did you ever honestly expect them to do that? Been this way since day 1, they want you to buy both versions and/or trade and actually interact with other human beings.

They aren't gonna be copied dude, you only get ONE pokemon that you can store in the cloud or the cartridge. Are you really gonna leave all your mons on their servers? I was planning on keeping mine with the cart, so I can play locally.

That's because Burger King is expensive. You can get two breakfast burritos as a meal at McDonalds for $5. Not taking anyone's side here, just saying.

I think his point was that it isn't very cost effective considering you can get about a gig of storage at that rate.

However, I disagree that its that big of an issue. I'd be shocked if people could come close to filling it without breeding rejects (but why put them in there?)

$5 a year is $0.42 per month, $0.02 each day aprox. I love pokemon, is a good deal and I can afford it.
Still, they should had done something like "free accounts" letting you pass, like, 1 box or so. That way, everybody would have been abled to transfer their 'mons and shit, but this is Gamefreak we're talking about, they never gonna have all their bases covered. Gonna dump my friends there!

Of course I'm going to pay them to get the full pokedex online and have my ingame boxes for breeding.

Not gonna bother. I had ranch, it was super useful for filling the dex, getting Mew and storing useless eggs (D/P Egg nature trick) and mons. But without egg nature trick this gen and without getting anything extra from it, I don't think it's worth it.

actually, isnt the size of a pokemon about 250 bytes now? rounded up?

that would mean it's about 8mb.

but the amount of storage is irrelevant.
