[53 / 4 / ?]
guys, I don't know if this topic has been discussed already, but I need to share it, I'm really, really mad at GF. So here is the thing: I got a chansey on Blue and taught it tri attack, I was really considering a new fun set to work with it once I transferred her to Sun. I did the transference, trained her, raised her EV's / IV's, she's pretty good. Evolved to Blissey and decided to test a match at the battle spot, free, double, special allowed... I just wanted to have some fun. Guess what? The game didn't allow me to enter the party with blissey because I assume it thinks the tri attack blissey is illegal... I deposited her to check and yes , it was her fault. Now I ask you: what's the point of all this bank/ transporter stuff when legit pokemon with legit moves from its generation cannot be used? I don't know if I'm being noob with this, but I got really upset... has anyone also found any other issue concerning the topic or has any tips to overcome it? Thanks

>>31551040 Gamefreak is pants-on-head retarded and forgot that cross-gen evos exist.
It's not the fact that it knows tri-attack. It's the fact that the legality checker doesn't think a Blissey that originated from Gen 1 should exist. Same goes for all the other cross-gen evos.
We'll just have to wait till they fix all of their mistakes that they made to the online legality checker.

>>31551040 Game Freak didn't think the system through and probably forgot that players will want to evolve their Pokemon after the transporter. Shit sucks because Sun and Moon treats those Pokemon as illegal once they evolve.

>>31551122 >>31551124 yeah I got it... this is too dumb, really, GF sometimes feel like the laziest people in the game industry... but anyway, you're telling me that maybe if I had kept chansey unevolved this wouldn't have happened? I'm twice as mad at my stupidity now... thanks for the explanation anyway

>>31551169 For now just give it some time and they'll fix it. They fucked up a lot of other stuff too, like Rotom formes, certain event pokemon, and HA Island Scan mons that were bred in Alola.

Do they know they fucked up? I see no news site listing the pokebank bugs or anything, really. I expected a shitstorm over this yet no one is talking about

>>31551220 gotta wait for the better then...I hope it'll be fixed soon! I don't know what I was expecting from all this VC transporter shit... Mew glitch is not transferrable, okay I kinda forgive this one, but the rest... there's really nothing so special about these RED BLUE pokémon coming over to Sun and Moon after all, just a nostalgic gimmick for fools like me. They blocked all the nice stuff we were hoping for, like fissure no guard machamp etc really, I'm not even that into competitive battling, I just wanted to play and have some decent fun with nice bro mons...

>>31551040 The real question is why would you want to use Blissey over Chansey?

>>31551264 Japs have been shitposting about it all over twitter and other sites. But I haven't seen really any Western sites talking about all of the bugs associated with the Bank update.

>>31551325 haha so... I'm not a battle pro, first of all, I just like to use some pokémon I like, but the thing is blissey has a little better improvement in SpA compared to chansey's mere 35 and I thought it would go well with tri attack (that's the reason I started this chansey stuff anyway) ... I was trying to run a special offensive oriented blissey for test purposes... just wanted to try new and fun sets, that's why I feel so frustrated...

>>31551325 the real thing is, this tri attack blissey idea would be greater if instead of HAs we got the regular ones.. maybe I'm wrong, but I think a well raised blissey with stab tri attack and serene grace could be really fun to have...

transporter blocked my pay day mewtwo from blue too, but I should know this one wouldn't make it... (though it should because IT'S LEGIT in its game for arceus sake)

so I'll never understand what's the purpose of allowing people to move pokemon from one gen to the other if some of their special moves (the very reason we want them to be transferred to the new games) are considered illegal

>>31551040 I have a Psycho Boost Lugia I got YEARS ago in XD, and now it won't let me use it even in free battles.
Not even VC transport issue, just Gen3 for fucks sake. GF needs to get their shit together here.

>>31551040 I cant put my Groudon with an Earth Ribbon onto the GTS. Same with any other pokemon that have said ribbon. Apparently all GoD pokemon with moves exclusive to that game are banned.
They totally forgot Orre existed. How can one company be so shit in every aspect?

>>31552971 >I cant put my Groudon with an Earth Ribbon onto the GTS This isn't new. Gen6 wouldnt let you do it, and I'm pretty sure gen5 wouldn't either. No idea how much involvemment GF actually had in Collo and XD, but they seem to not count it any more

It's not just with evolution. Whenever you change the moveset of a Pokemon from VC, it automatically makes it illegal for online use. I tested using my untouched Pay Day Pikachu on Battle Spot and Bubble Beam Persian and both worked. Charizard with the standard competitive moveset was denied because Air Slash, Heatwave, and Overheat don't exist in gen one. It's most likely a bug that will be patched.
