* '''[[Lanette]]'s Pokémon Storage System''' (as seen in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}) is an entirely new Pokémon Storage System, with a graphical user interface and the capacity to store up to 420 Pokémon in 14 Boxes, each of which can hold 30 Pokémon. An added feature is usage of the <sc>start</sc> and <sc>select</sc> button, which respectively move the cursor to go to the Box title and highlight the cursor, giving strict movement of Pokémon. When a Box becomes full, Pokémon will be moved to the next available Box, eliminating the worry of running out of space.

* '''[[Brigette]]'s Pokémon Storage System''' (as seen in [[Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire]]) is based on Lanette's Pokémon Storage System, but with greatly expanded capacity and an improved interface; it can hold up to 1500 Pokémon, and allows the user to move many Pokémon at once.

* '''[[Brigette]]'s Pokémon Storage System''' (as seen beginning in [[Generation VI]]) has Brigette as the head of the [[Pokémon Bank]], an online cloud storage system that features multiple enhancements, such as searching for, sorting, and grouping deposited Pokémon. The storage capacity consists of 100 Boxes, with each Box holding up to 30 Pokémon, for a maximum of 3000 Pokémon held by the service. Boxes can be organized into up to 10 groups, with the player being able to rename each group. An Internet connection is required to download and use the application to the [[Nintendo 3DS]]. In addition, the [[Pokemon Transporter]], an extension of the Pokémon Bank service, permits Pokémon migration from [[Generation V]] to Generation VI. Pokémon from {{game|Black and White|s}} and/or {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}} can be transferred (one-way) to {{game|X and Y|s}}.
* '''Lanette's Pokémon Storage System''' (upgraded by Bill, as seen in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and {{game|Emerald}}) adds the ability to manage [[held item]]s directly from the PC. The amount of Boxes stayed the same as the amount in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, and each Box holds 30 Pokémon.

* '''[[Bebe]]'s Pokémon Storage System''' (as seen in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}) is the same as Lanette's system, but the number of Boxes has been increased from 14 to 18, for a maximum capacity of 540. It was created with help from Bill. It is possibly an upgraded version of Bill's modification of Lanette's system. In Platinum, six more wallpaper designs were added. When the Y button is pressed, the hand turns yellow instead of white, allowing players to simply pick up and drop Pokémon in necessary slots (as opposed to confirming this action every time the A button is pressed). Each Box holds 30 Pokémon.

* '''[[Amanita]]'s Pokémon Storage System''' (as seen in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon Black and White]], and [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]]) has the player start out with eight Boxes capable of holding 240 Pokémon total. When all 8 Boxes have at least one Pokémon in them, the storage capacity will be increased to 16 Boxes, holding 480 Pokémon. When all 16 of those Boxes have at least one Pokémon in them, the capacity will be increased again to a maximum of 24 Boxes, or 720 Pokémon. This allows for quicker save times early on, as [[Saving|save]] data for non-"unlocked" Boxes does not need to be calculated, solving a common complaint about Generation IV's long save times. Each box still holds 30 Pokémon. The other Boxes are also shown on the right, as opposed to the top as they were in HeartGold and SoulSilver. Box names cannot be any [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|censored words]]; in Black and White only, Box names cannot contain more than four numerical characters.

* '''[[Cassius]]' Pokémon Storage System''' (as seen in [[Pokémon X and Y]]) is like Amanita's, but starts with seven Boxes at first. Each time the player places at least one Pokémon in all available Boxes, the storage capacity will increase to 15 Boxes, and then 23, and then finally 30-31 Boxes, holding a maximum of 930 Pokémon. Box names can also now contain the É and é characters. <!-- if there are other differences, I haven't found them -->

Boxes can be organized into up to 10 groups, with the player being able to rename each group. An Internet connection is required to download and use the application to the [[Nintendo 3DS]], as well as an annual fee of $4.99 (United States). In addition, the [[Poké Transporter]], an extension of the Pokémon Bank service, permits Pokémon migration from [[Generation V]] to Generation VI. Pokémon from {{game|Black and White|s}} and/or {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}} can be transferred (one-way) to {{game|X and Y|s}}. [[Poké Miles]] and [[Battle Points]] are awarded to the player, depending on the length of time and amount of Pokémon deposited into Pokémon Bank. The service also acts as a safeguard, such as providing an opportunity to recover deposited Pokémon in the event of lost Pokémon game cartridges.
