'''Transferring''' is a process in which Pokémon are sent from a game in one [[generation]] to a game in another, usually later, generation. The exact process usually differs for different generations. Transfers differ from [[trade|trading]] in that they are usually only one-way. | '''Transferring''' is a process in which Pokémon are sent from a game in one [[generation]] to a game in another, usually later, generation.

The [[Nintendo DS]]'s [[dual-slot mode]] allows Pokémon to be transferred from [[Generation III]] games to [[Generation IV]] games. When a Generation IV game is started with a Generation III game in the console's Game Pak Slot, if [[Pal Park]] has been visited in the game, the option to "Migrate from [game]" will be available on the [[main menu]]. (Due to the removal of the Game Pak Slot for the [[Nintendo DSi]], Pokémon cannot be transferred to Generation IV on DSi consoles.) | The [[Nintendo DS]]'s [[dual-slot mode]] allows Pokémon to be transferred from [[Generation III]] games to [[Generation IV]] games.
