When a Pokémon is transferred, its location becomes simply the name of the region it was caught rather than the exact location it was caught. A Pokémon caught in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|HeartGold or SoulSilver}} will have its location listed as Johto, regardless of whether it was caught in [[Kanto]], the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], or the [[Pokéwalker]]. In Generation VI, the level obtained at is changed to the level arrived at, and the date obtained becomes the date it was transported to [[Pokémon Bank]]; in Generation VII, no met level or date obtained is displayed for Pokémon obtained in previous generations.

To determine the met location in Generation VI and VII, Poké Transporter only reads the data of the game the Pokémon was originally generated in, rather than its met location in the Generation V game. This sets any Pokémon created in FireRed or LeafGreen to [[Kanto]]; HeartGold or SoulSilver to [[Johto]]; Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald to [[Hoenn]]; Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum to [[Sinnoh]]; Black, White, Black 2, and White 2 to [[Unova]], and Colosseum or XD to "[[Orre|distant land]]". (Pokémon obtained from [[Wonder Card]]s are treated as being created in the game they were received in.) A Pokémon whose {{pkmn|Egg}} was obtained in a game based in one region and traded to another region before it was hatched will display the name of the region it was generated in, rather than the one it was hatched in; this means that a Pokémon generated in Platinum but hatched in SoulSilver would have the OT and ID of the SoulSilver player but list that it was met in Sinnoh.

In Generation I, the original Trainer of Pokémon from [[in-game trade]]s uses a control character that displays Trainer in the games' language (e.g. TRAINER in English). Transported Pokémon have this OT converted to regular capitalization and any abbreviations expanded.
