Gen 6: Previous Generation Transfer Exclusive Checklist

[MarkTreeRNG]

The following is an attempt to catalogue various elements of the Gen 6 Pokémon games that will be inaccessible should Pokémon Bank shutdown in the future. CFW non-withstanding of course.

Pokéball legality is not being touched on, given the vast resources which already exist for this element.

 

For Hidden Abilities; added notes where Gen 5 has continued accessibility without Dream World where possible, and also Gen 7 alternative methods. Evolutionary lines represented by a single Pokémon.
