First of all , you can only trade back and forward between games in the same Generation . So you can only trade between Sun and Moon games Gen 7 , or between X , Y , Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire the Gen 6 games , etc . Then there ' s transferring pokmon from older Gens to the newer ones . This is always oneway only , you cannot transfer those pokmon back to their older games . Up to Gen 6 , all games had a way to transfer pokmon only from the immediately older games . So you could transfer pokmon to Gen 5 from Gen 4 , but not from Gen 3 if you wanted to , you ' d have to do Gen 3 Gen 4 Gen 5 . Gens 1 and 2 are the exception to all this , since you can trade between these two Gens I think ? and you cannot transfer pokmon from Gen 2 to Gen 3 AFAIK . But you can do it from Gen 1 to Gen 7 ! check belowPokmon Bank supposedly changes that , acting as the standard way to transfer pokmon between Gens though still keeping it oneway , mind you . After the January update , with Pokmon Bank you ' ll be able to Transfer pokmon from Gen 5 to Gen 6 or 7 Transfer pokmon from Gen 6 to Gen 7 Transfer pokmon from Gen 1 Virtual Console games to Gen 7 Store and withdraw pokmon from Gen 6 or Gen 7 So , if you wanna transfer pokmon from Gens 3 or 4 , you ' ll have to first transfer them to a Gen 5 game and then to the Pokmon Bank . If you wanna transfer pokmon from a Gen 2 game Gold or Silver , you ' re out of luck , AFAIK . If you wanna transfer pokmon from a Gen 1 Red , Blue or Yellow cartridge , you ' d have to hack your savefile into the Virtual Console version of the game , something I don ' t even know if it ' s possible . Hope I made myself clear enough haha
