I was just wondering. Will there be a pokemon bank on the switch when the new pokemon game comes out?

@DarthSkunk we can't know for sure, but there will most likely be bank support for the Pokémon game on Switch and I wouldn't bet on it being released until 1-3 months after the games are released.

...Unless GameFreak takes the stupid route and limits this game to the first 151 Pokemon. >_>
I doubt it, but at the same time...

well we wont know until the game comes out. I think a fresh start is a good thing even if it starts only with the original pokemon

@DarthSkunk Game Freak hasn't confirmed it. But that was the purpose of Pokemon Bank. We will likely get it when it when the main series game comes out in 2019 - though it is possible that it will remain only tied to the main series games and not support spin offs like the Let's Go titles.

I expect Pokemon Bank to remain a separate cost but maybe I’ll be surprised.

I suspect you are right because Bank is still functional on 3DS.

Also looking at what we know now, I don't expect Bank to release on Switch until after the 2019 game releases. I wont honestly be surprised if Bank does not support the "Let's Go" titles because it seems like Nintendo/Game Freak is trying to keep them as dumbed down as possible because they assume that all new players are too stupid to understand basic game mechanics that most of us understood even as young children... Yes I realize how harsh that sounds and no, I don't hate Let's Go. I just think they are too concerned with making things simple and not supporting Bank seems like another thing they will cut from those games.

I do fully suspect and greatly hope for Bank to come to Switch with the proper 2019 game. Honestly I will be upset if that doesn't happen because that was the main reason I bought into Bank to begin with, because they led us to believe it would be used to support the Pokemon franchise long into the future.

@Heavyarms55 I do agree with you on it will be stupid if they keep the pokemon bank around specially for the main core pokemon games. Many of us would like to keep using it, but spin offs like lets go they shouldnt use the bank for it, since it is a spin off game not a main core rpg
