'Pokemon Sun and Moon' latest details: Pokemon Bank and Poke Transporter compatible with latest versions?

(YouTube/Nintendo)'Pokemon Sun' and 'Pokemon Moon' will be released on Nov. 18.

There are a lot of features that will be included in the upcoming "Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon" games. One of the highlights that were recently shown for the games is the Z-Moves and a few have already been revealed for different Pokémon. Players will also have an easier time collecting the creatures with the use of the Pokémon Bank and the Poke Transporter.

Based on the reports from the International Business Times, trainers will not have a hard time obtaining Pokémon for "Pokémon Moon" and "Pokémon Sun" since the software called Pokémon Bank will be getting an update soon. The latest patch for the software will make it compatible for the upcoming versions of the game. The Pokémon Bank is a piece of downloadable software for the Nintendo 3DS which will allow players to store their Pokémon.

Players of "Pokémon Omega Ruby," "Pokémon Alpha Sapphire," "Pokémon X" and "Pokémon Y" may already be familiar with this piece of software since it was first made available for these versions. The interesting feature that the "Pokémon Bank" offers is that it has a storage that can cater up to 3,000 Pokémon.

Another Pokémon application that will get an update is the Poke Transporter. Its purpose is to transfer creatures from virtual console versions of "Pokémon Red," "Pokémon Blue" and "Pokémon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition" to the upcoming games.

Both applications cost $4.99 in total and it is a subscription that is valid for 365 days. However, the Pokémon Bank and the Poke Transporter updates will be available on January 2017, two months after the game is released.

In addition, more Z-moves have been revealed for different Pokémon recently. These special moves can be executed with a Z-Crystal that the Pokémon is carrying and it will respond with the trainer's Z-Ring. One of the cool moves that were showcased recently was Stoked Sparksurfer which can be executed by Raichu. With this move, the Pokémon uses its tail as a surfing board and crashes towards the enemy with its energized body.

Snorlax also has a Z-Move called Pulverizing Pancake where he wakes up from sleep then sprints towards the enemy. After that, he jumps to a high distance that will cause enough damage to crush the enemy. Eevee also has a special move called Extreme Evoboost where it summons and borrows power from its different evolutions. After that, it executes a very deadly move.

"Pokémon Sun" and "Pokémon Moon" are slated to be released on Nov. 18 exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS.
