Re: Game Breaking Pokémon X & Y Bug Affecting Some Gamers in Europe and Japan

There's a sticky thread on Gamefaqs where a lot of users have reported their experiences with the bug. Apparently it happens if you save in the streets in Lumiose city, close the software, open it again and then load your save file. Saving and continuing with your game seems to be ok.

Many are saying it happens near a lamp post and a cab. But another use r said they saved near the studios and their save wasn't corrupted. And it seems to affect both digital and physical. Dunno about regions though. Anyway, just stay safe and don't save in the streets there!

It was free in the last game because transferring pokemon didn't make use of a cloud service then.
For people who don't have friends to trade with, this is a pretty good way to transfer Pokemon from previous games. It's certainly cheaper than a second 3DS and game card.
Nobody said you couldn't hook up with another 3DS system with a second copy of Pokemon, and still transfer your Pokemon for free like it was always done before. But this is a cloud service and servers need maintenance and upkeep.
