Earlier this month The Pokémon Company revealed subscribers to Pokémon Bank would be able to claim the final evolutions of the Johto region starter Pokémon between the 27th February and 30th November 2015.
The launch day for this promotion has now arrived, with users of the service able to claim a Level 50 Meganium, Typhlosion and Feraligatr.
As previously explained:
Meganium will come with the Hidden Ability Leaf Guard. Leaf Guard protects the Pokémon from status conditions when the sunlight is harsh or extremely harsh, and this Meganium knows Sunny Day—so it can change the weather to take advantage of its own Hidden Ability.
Typhlosion will have the Hidden Ability Flash Fire, which boosts the power of Fire-type moves by 50% and prevents this Pokémon from taking damage if hit with a Fire-type move. This Typhlosion knows Overheat, Flamethrower, and Flame Charge, maximising the advantage Flash Fire provides.
Feraligatr possesses the Hidden Ability Sheer Force, which eliminates the additional effects of moves used by the Pokémon, while increasing the move's power by 30%. This Feraligatr already knows three moves that have additional effects. Thanks to Sheer Force, it can deal major damage with these moves.
On boot up, players will be required to use the Pokémon Link in either Pokémon X & Y or Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire after receiving the three starters from the Bank.
If you’re not already a user of Pokemon Bank, make sure you sign up between now and November for $4.99 / £4.49 / €4.99 respectively if you would like to claim these classic starter Pokémon. In addition to this, you'll also be able to store up to 3000 'mon 'in the cloud' online.
Let us know in the comments if you've claimed Meganium, Typhlosion and Feraligatr in this limited-time offer.

Great! Finally Sheer Force Feraligatr. Going to try it ASAP :3
All shall fear my Flash Fire Tyflosion! Mwahahaha!!
Time to get Pokemon Bank because I got to have the starter pokemon from my favorite Pokemon generation.
cool, didnt know this was happening but i already have pokébank. hopefully get at least one female this time, all my unova starters were male
Well at least something is available from nintendo for a loyal fan. F'N GOLD AMIIBO MARIO!!!!
I went into the bank, and I'm not able to get them. They just don't show up.
EDIT: Got it, I'm just an Idiot and forgot to clear out my Pokemon Link.
@Rapwned I'm having the same issue. How exactly so you clear out your link?
@Rhino47 On the screen where you select your game, there should be an option at the bottom saying "Pokémon Link". Select it, receive whatever gift is in it, and go back into Pokémon Bank afterwards. Hope this helps!
Sweet! I totally forgot I had a Bank sub... Looks like it's time to dust it off!
Now why did I thought when I saw "Meganium" that I for a second I thought this was saying Mega-Meganium, Typhlosion, and Feragliatr announced. Almost jumped from my seat XD
Definitely getting that Sheer Force Feraligatr once I'm back from school.
@foodmetaphors
You can breed HA's from Male parents now, in gen 6. It takes longer, but its still possible.
@JellySplat oh i know. im going to breed them either way but i also keep my event pokes since they come in those Cherish balls and id prefer they be female
@foodmetaphors
Gotcha! Just a preference I see. Cool, Well good luck getting females! I forgot to check if mine were males or not, but if I do get any females, I'd be happy to trade.
Awesome. I got them!
@JellySplat thanks for the offer... turns out these aren't even event pokes, even though the unova ones were... they come in regular pokéballs and your own OT... so yeah I'm probably just gonna breed and release or something lol
@Rapwned Ahhh, thanks a bunch!
You have to enter pokemon bank boxes and save when you leave.
If you dont save you can't get pokes in game which you choose when you choose to use with poke bank.
I have same issue because i dont save when i leave boxes.
Then you can use pokemon link option.
If you dont save when you leave pokemon bank boxes nothing bad happen,
you only have to get to boxes again and save when leave.
You got time until 30 November to do that.
Hope this help.
