This software allows players of the [[Generation V]] [[core series]] games to migrate Pokémon to [[Generation VI]] games. The service allows one-way transfer of Pokémon from {{game|Black and White|s}} and {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}} to {{game|X and Y|s}}. When one of the [[Nintendo DS]] cartridges is inserted into the system, it will be possible to deposit Pokémon belonging to it on the Pokémon Bank. Then, such choices can be downloaded into a connected [[Generation VI]] game using the Nintendo 3DS.

Only the Pokémon from Box 1 can be transferred, limiting the transfer to up to thirty Pokémon at a time, and the Pokémon transferred to the Bank are moved to a special box, from which they must be moved to either the Bank or the player's Generation VI boxes to allow more Pokémon to be transferred. Any held items will be returned to the bag, or deleted if it is full. Some Pokémon, notably most of the ones obtained through hacking, will be rejected. {{p|Kyurem}} must be in its normal form to be transferred. The names of [[Nickname|unnicknamed]] Pokémon will be rechecked upon transfer, leading into foreign Pokémon to revert to the species name in their origin language if they had obtained a name of another origin by evolution and Pokémon from before Generation V to have their all-uppercase names fixed to proper case. Unlike the [[Pal Park]] and [[Poké Transfer]] before it, Pokémon that know [[HM]] [[move]]s can be tranferred without having to [[Move Deleter|forget]] those moves.
Only the Pokémon from Box 1 can be transferred, and the entire Box must be transferred at once, limiting the transfer to up to thirty Pokémon at a time. The Pokémon transferred to Pokémon Bank are placed in the Transport Box, from which they must be moved to either Pokémon Bank's Boxes or those in the player's Generation VI game to allow more Pokémon to be transferred. Any held items will be returned to the bag, or deleted if it is full.
 
Some Pokémon, notably most of the ones obtained or modified through [[Cheating|external devices]], will be rejected. {{p|Kyurem}} must be in its normal form to be transferred. While legitimately obtainable, {{Shiny}} {{p|Jirachi}} cannot be transferred. Unlike the [[Pal Park]] and [[Poké Transfer]] before it, Pokémon that know [[HM]] [[move]]s can be transferred without having to [[Move Deleter|forget]] those moves.
 
===Modifications to transferred Pokémon===
The names of [[Nickname|unnicknamed]] Pokémon will be rechecked upon transfer, leading into foreign Pokémon to revert to the species name in their origin language if they had obtained a name of another origin by evolution and Pokémon from before Generation V to have their all-uppercase names fixed to proper case. If a Pokémon's nickname contains a word which is prohibited in the Generation VI games, the Pokémon's nickname will be erased, reverting to the default species name.
 
[[Form differences#Basculin|Blue-Striped]] {{p|Basculin}} with the [[Ability]] {{a|Reckless}} will have their Ability changed to {{a|Rock Head}} upon transfer. {{p|Starly}} that have their Hidden Ability flag set (such that they would evolve into Reckless {{p|Staravia}}) will have their Ability changed to Reckless upon transfer.
 
Pokémon obtained in [[Generation III]] that gained an Ability in [[Generation IV]] that would change Ability slot upon [[evolution]] will be permanently locked into their current Ability upon transfer. Female {{p|Azurill}} that would evolve into male {{p|Marill}} will be permanently locked into being female upon transfer.
