Nintendo recently announced the almost-complete closure of 3DS and Wii U online services on April 8 – and just about every single game is losing online functionality on that day. Pokemon Bank, however, is the exception. It won’t remain open forever, but eventually Nintendo will cut the cord on all of its online services. When that happens, Pokemon Bank will become unusable and it will be impossible to transfer Pokemon from previous generations to the Switch.

More than a few Pokemon can only be Shiny on Game Boy Advance, DS, and 3DS titles – on Switch, there’s no way to Shiny hunt any of these Pokemon (at least, not yet). Today, we’re going over a list of Pokemon whose Shiny forms will become unobtainable once Pokemon Bank closes. Again, we’re not entirely sure when this will be, but if you’re looking to save some cool Shiny Pokemon now might be a good time to start hunting.

The new Tera Raid Battle for 7 Star Empoleon is currently live in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and we’ve put together a new guide on how to take it down.

Empoleon knows Surf, Flash Cannon, Grass Knot, and Ice Beam as its normal moves. It’s Tera Ice, and it also uses Snowscape, Blizzard, and Iron Defense as additional moves during the battle. Empoleon is available to battle from now until February 4, and then again from February 9 to 11. If you don’t have any Pokemon ready for this wave, feel free to check out our guide and prepare your counter for the next wave.

Today, we’re talking all about coaches in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet – how to invite them, the benefits of doing so, and the Pokemon each coach offers to trade you on their third visit.

Coach trainers are a mechanic new to Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Indigo Disk DLC. Blueberry Academy is the home of the League Club Room, a special area that lets you extend invites to Gym Leaders, Elite Four members, and teachers from the base game. Once you’ve invited one of these coach trainers, you can battle them and eventually trade Pokemon with them after sending multiple invites.

Our coverage of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Legendary Pokemon continues today with a Reshiram location guide, including its exact location on the Paldean map plus instructions on how to spawn it in the Indigo Disk DLC.

Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem make up the Tao trio, which first appeared in Pokemon Black and White. This time around, neither Reshiram nor Zekrom are version exclusives. That means you can get all three Legendary Pokemon regardless of whether you’re playing Scarlet or Violet.

If you’re trying to figure out where to find Kyurem in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet as part of the Indigo Disk DLC, we’ve put together a Kyurem location guide here for you.

Kyurem, along with Reshiram and Zekrom, is a member of the Tao trio introduced in Generation V. Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem were once one being. Whereas Reshiram represents truth and Zekrom represents ideals, Kyurem represents neither — it’s sort of the “leftovers” of the original dragon. If you’re looking to catch Kyurem in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, you’ve come to the right place.
