With the discontinuation of the Nintendo eShop service for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, the Pokémon Bank service for Nintendo 3DS will become available at no cost to users.
The Nintendo eShop, which persisted across both platforms, currently offers digital game downloads, demos, and other free content.
The Pokémon Bank service provides a giant digital storage facility for all the Pokémon caught across different games and saves.
It’s still sad to think of all the Pokémon that will be left behind as the eShop shutdown rolls out.
