Pokemon fans now is the time to act fast and download the Pokemon Bank! It has gone through extensive updates and now commits with Pokemon Sun and Moon. This will make for the trouble-free transfer of Pokemon from several copies of Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon which includes the downloadable versions to just one game.

Nintendo revealed through Pokemon Sun and Moon website that this month of January, the "Nintendo 3DS downloadable software Pokemon Bank is expected to receive an update for compatibility with the game".

The new update can be coursed via Nintendo eShop enabling players to transfer captured Pokemon in Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire, X, and Y over to the latest generation. In addition, the Poke Transporter has been updated too to make more room for the original 150 Pokemon that were acquired in the Virtual Console versions of Blue, Red, and Yellow. It is now transferable to Pokemon Bank and then straight on to Sun and Moon, Nintendo Life reported.

In celebration with the update, all subscribers of Pokemon Bank could obtain a Mewnium Z which is a crystal exclusive for Mew to use. Once the player released the Pokemon Bank and acquired the gift, a new Wonder Card will show in his Pokémon Sun or Pokémon Moon game. The player can utilize the Mystery Gift function to get his Mewnium Z.

It is worth noting that this kind of gift is exclusive to players of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon only. It cannot be accessed in Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, Pokémon Omega Ruby, Pokémon X, and Pokémon Y. A player can only obtain just one Mewnium Z even if the Pokemon Bank has been used with numerous games of Pokémon Sun and Moon. Players which possess Pokemon Bank should take advantage of the service by October 2, 2017, to get Mewnium Z.

Upon transfer, there will three max IVs where its characteristics will be riffled and the Pokemon will have its Hidden Ability. Each creature will have a Game Boy mark, suggesting the transfer of a Virtual Console title.

Pokemon Sun and Moon's Pokemon Bank is a waged service for 3DS games and can store up to 3,000 Pokemon. Poke Bank's annual fee is $4.99.
