Talk:Poké Transporter
B/W?
Does anyone know if this will be exclusive to B2/W2 or will it include original B/W? Tacopill (talk) 01:58, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
Stardom
Does anyone know if pokemon that achieve 'cult star' status at Pokestar Studios will keep their entrance sparkle in X/Y? Legionaireb (talk) 18:32, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
- I am not sure that is related to the Poké Transporter. Tacopill (talk) 15:06, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
- I've heard reports that the Pokéstar Studios and N's Pokémon entry animations no longer occur. I don't have a Japanese game though, so I haven't tested this myself. --SnorlaxMonster 16:47, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry if this is old news, but I can confirm that the Pokéstar Studios entry animation is gone. Tested this by sending out my Wynaut against a wild Flabébé. In Black 2, my Wynaut had the animation. In Y, nothing. - unsigned comment from Missingno. Master (talk • contribs) 12:49, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

Names of transferred Pokémon
Something that the article doesn't seem to note yet: Transporter fixes the all-uppercase names of unnicknamed Pokémon from Gen III and IV to proper case. Not sure where to put that without it looking like a random statement, though, so I'll let someone else decide. Soulweaver (talk · edits) 19:01, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
Pokédex trivia
after using Poké Transporter, I discovered that the symbol that marks a completed Pokédex entry, instead of being the Kalos symbol, will be a the National Pokédex symbol (a Pokéball) if, and only if, using Poké Transporter got you the Pokémon species in question, or evolving a Pokémon that was transferred gets you the entry. This symbol can be upgraded to the Kalos symbol by catching or evolving a native-to-Kalos Pokémon of the species, as well as hatching one. I tested this with Aron. I initially got the entry by transfering, then I hatched one that was laid by a Lairon I had. --KinCryos (talk) 22:50, 5 February 2014 (UTC)
- Makes sense, and I confirm. The logo for the National Dex is the red/white Poké Ball, so entries exclusive to it would be marked as such...wait, I just went over to Pokédex, someone stated that the National Dex icon is the combo of the three regional Dex icons... --TruePikachu (talk) 23:52, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
Pokédex Completion
Does anyone happen to know how the Pokédex in XY is marked with regard to imports from Bank? Specifically, I know the somewhere in the line, the Dex gets marked as Caught, but I don't know if the game or if Bank does it, and if Bank does, what conditions need to be met (transferred to XY by save, was in an XY box during the "transaction" (could be removed later in the same transaction), was in full Bank system, etc). Hopefully (for Ninty and our game carts) it is one of the two latter possibilities, because then one could do mass Dex filling in a single transaction, reducing both server load and flash writes (to either SD, cart, or NAND(?)). --TruePikachu (talk) 23:48, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you're referring to. I finished my dex today, so I could potentially answer your question but...I don't understand. ★Jo the Marten★ ಠ_ಠ♥ 23:52, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

Arceus
In my own experience, which is backed up by the experiences of those on external forums, the TRU Arceus cannot be transferred. Me, Hurray! (talk) 15:22, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
- I'd actually like to see a list started on the Transporter page for 'legit' Pokémon that can't be transferred. I can already confirm that any Shaymin or Darkrai caught from Japanese Diamond/Pearl (via the surf-into-the-void bug) won't go through since they aren't tagged with "fateful encounter". I've read that Azure Flute Arceus won't go either. I know all those are technically 'cheated' but it'd be good to know. One non-cheated that I'm yet to confirm myself but that I've heard is blocked is the Gen3 Mystery Mew that they handed out at TRU back in 2006. I'm gonna test the Journey Across America Celebi and all of the event ticket Pokémon from Gen3 soon for myself, since I have access to them. They're all still in my Gen3 games, though, so I need to set aside some time to do a lot of transferring. There's plenty of others I'd like to get confirmed, too, like pretty much all event handouts (since TRU Arceus won't transfer, which is a BIG disappointment).Shugo (talk) 08:34, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
- I just checked both the Arceus I have in my X version. One of them was actually from my Diamond version which I got through use of the Azure Flute. My other was obtained in White through the PGL promotion. I honestly haven't had any issues transferring Pokémon at all. My Azure Flute Arceus is the only "hacked" Pokémon that I've ever transferred. The rest are banished to my Diamond version, never to be removed. ★Jo the Marten★ ಠ_ಠ♥ 08:47, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
