When do you think they'll shut it down?

Jan 1 2025 is my assumption. If they were intent on keeping it around for ages they would have somehow kept it accessible for everyone.

They'll do it quietly and conveniently.
My guess is around the time Pokemon is in a slump, because by then it would garner the least amount of attention.
Either next year, or 2026.

End of 2024 or early 2025. I doubt cloud servers really cost that much but they can't monetize it anymore so there's no real incentive to keep it alive for much longer.

i feel like there's a like 2% chance they'll try and find a way to make it so the next game has a transfer feature so they'll probably wait until the end of 2024 - mid 2025

They don't if you own them but they rent from Google.

It hasn't been a year since they shut down the eShop, and they're already planning on shutting down online servers for the DS. There's no doubt in my mind that they'll give Bank a few more months to live before they shut it down too.

As of right now I'm duplicating the National Dex for the third time so I can have a completed Dex for Gen 6, and Gen 7, while the third duplicated Dex gets sent to Pokémon Home, that way I don't have to worry about the previous gens and can complete the Dex for Gen 8, and Gen 9 at my own pace. I just need to complete capturing/breeding the Gen 7 Pokémon and I'm good to go.

Its not like it matters anymore too.
Dexit cuts and all moves being reset going into Gen 9 makes it pretty worthless

Ironic when they were starting Bank they made a speech about how they love that Pokemon became a multi-generational thing and wanted to celebrate it by giving longterm fans a place to store their Pokemon or some crap, only to show they don't actually care when they made its replacement, basically guaranteeing that the older generations will get cut off at some point.

I have a real quick question and this is the closest fitting thread I can find.

Is Home's hack-detection algorithm different from Bank's? I don't care too strongly if it turns out some of my banked Pokémon are hacked, but it's just that I honestly can't tell them apart. Either they're all legit, or what few hacks I have are convincing. I just wanna know if Home has a different way of telling them apart.

Ever since they fixed Bank to not require a subscription, probably never now.
>2023
>can now still bring pokemon from the old games to the newer ones
All those 3DS's and physical pokemon copies still have value, helping maintain the franchise in the consumer's minds

To this day, my biggest gripe is that Poké Transporter only works with Gen 5 games. Would it be really difficult to make it work with Gen 4 games? I have no idea how programming works, but I think it would be simple.

They could have done it if they wanted to.

It works just by reading and editing the save file on the cart, and there is nothing coded in BW1/2 that lets it work there and not on Gen 4.

Gen 5 sold less, and they wanted consumers to buy the remaining gen 5 copies that are required to transport to the newer games. Masuda has been jaded ever since the games that he put the most amount of effort sold the least, so he says fuck you to you.

It hurts a lot to now that this service it's available but I no longer have my 2DS; I could inject my GBA/DS mons I got in emulators into the 3DS games and have them save in Home, but whatever.
At least there are easier ways to get whatever mon nowadays (P.Go, Legends)

you dont like seeing your old Hall of Fame teams from 12 years ago, or that first shiny you found in Emerald that youve kept for 18 years? i would never leave them behind to languish and eventually be erased by time and data corruption.

Does anyone see get bummed out that 20 years of interconnectivity will be gone? Part of what made the games unique is the fact that you could connect R/S/E from 20 years ago to the one you have now via trading up. Sure it can be a hassle but it was nice to know that if you really liked a Pokemon or wanted to collect exclusive ribbons, you could do that and transfer said Pokemon to present games.

It sucks that the time seems to be approaching where all past mons will forever be locked on those handheld systems. Hell, locked to gen 3 and 4. Gen 5 are stuck in their own. Gen 6 and 7 can at least mingle.

Yeah, Home is nice, especially if you took the time to bring up all your old mons, but it feels a bit disjointed without the full dex being in each game.

Yeah, and it feels like I have to rush all my "I'll get to it eventually" projects to get them done before the inevitable shutdown.
If the Home tracker wasn't a thing I wouldn't care as much since my Switch has cfw on it, but I don't want stuff to get blocked from it.

Bring them up now, store them in gen 7, then back up the save multiple times. That's the best advice I can give. NEVER use home or bring them up further. Despite no nat dex in USUM, you can at least own your mons and use them ingame. Keep them there because at least you'll have them

Please understand they just had to force feed you a shitty subscription service to transfer pokemon instead of just letting you transfer pokemon directly from game to game like all the good gens allowed. Pokemon would have never survived without charging 10$ a year for less cloud storage than the media upload limit of a 4chan post.

When the next switch console comes out.
They will open Bank2. And then shut down the original bank.
