Pokémon Bank updated to work with Pokémon Sun and Moon

Nintendo has updated the Pokémon Bank 3DS app to work with Pokémon Sun and Moon.

Those who use the Pokémon swapping system — and are paying the annual fee of $4.99 USD — will also gain access to a Z-Crystal for Mew as part of the app’s update.

This means the application, which lets you upload, store and transfer Pokémon, will now work with Pokémon Sun, Moon, X, Y, White, White 2, Black, Black 2 and the Virtual Console titles Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow. The Poké Transporter, bundled with the Pokémon Bank, will need to be used in some instances.

The bonus Z-Crystal will only work with Sun and Moon. More information can be found here.

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
