Have you transferred all of your bros from past gens, or are you going to? While I brought over my team from Platinum, who would otherwise simply have rotted in a game I won't ever finish anyway, I'm hesitant about the rest of them. Within their games, they are special; and whenever I would go back to them, my bros would be waiting for me and get used; but in Y? They would probably just sit in the PC, overshadowed by recent 5–6IV masterrace breeds. Keeping them decentralised also minimises the risk of losing them all. On the other hand, being stuck in the past in rarely-used old games is not a kind fate either, and importing any important Pokémon would allow me to re-play some earlier titles without losing anything.

b-bump Also, two or three months before X/Y came out, I bred a couple of 2–3IV Pokémon in Emerald, hoping to be able to transfer them into Gen VI when Pokébank would be released. Then it turned out that IV breeding in X/Y was easier than ever, the hundreds of eggs I needed to hatch in Hoenn to get a few Pokémon with perfect IVs in the right to spots were obsoleted by an army of 5IV and 6IV monsters. Since my older breeds which I invested so much time into would be worthless in Kalos, I'm considering temporarily storing them in Platinum, wiping my HeartGold save after transferring my bros into B2, and journeying Kanto together with them. Can you trade between Gen IV games before completing the Elive Four?

I've got the Swampert I used in Sapphire, for some reason I seem to have lost the rest of my Sapphire team over time though. Still have my full team from Leaf Green though. My favorite is the Parasect I used named Mr.Mushrum because there wasn't enough space for Mushroom. And yeah, I kinda feel you on not using them, but just having them around is good enough for me. I've been using superior pokemon since Diamond so I don't feel like I'm betraying my old bros for actual competitive pokemon. I just use their descendants from breeding and it's kind of like using my old bros vicariously through these new better pokemon.

>>17865444 I'm also thinking that, all in all, they would probably see a bit more use in Y than in their original games. I've been using my Porygon from Platinum to grind low-level Pokémon in the Battle Chateau, and after teaching it False Swipe my old Scizor has been helpful with catching wild Pokémon for breeding and dex completion. Better than nothing.

How safe are X/Y from data loss/save corruption, by the way?

>>17866619 Pretty safe I'd say, considering they fixed that save glitch a good while back.
