They removed it for the moment to supposedly work on it. That's probably the defalt message they put up when they remove a game from the eShop.

You can also go to a store that sells games and buy a download code.....once it comes out.
I guess, I haven't used it or seen how it works yet.PokeChimpo said:
I can't believe there's a delay. I understand they don't want hacked Pokémon, but they've been working on this for a pretty long time, and they seriously couldn't have fixed this problem. Plus some people in Japan already got to use Poketransfer and got all of their old Pokémon, which really isn't fair.

I was under the understanding that the combination of pokebank, and all the new 3ds's and wiius accessing the eshop simply overloaded things, if the servers are having trouble with the excess traffic it's a shame, but at the same time I'm sure they were surprised by the massive upswing in traffic as well.
They may have some glitches that need to be ironed out too. If bank were free completely we would not have any delays. As I said earlier it does not make a whole lot of good sense because if they decide to cancel service in the future we are all screwed for data transfers. They did not even make am in game transfer machine but they made a Poke Miles shop so we know the PGL will shut down in about 2-3 years. They really made a bad move with the app. In roughly 5 years the app will be useless which means 122 Pokemon will no longer be transferable from gen 5 to gen 6 anymore. They dug a hole that they will not be able to get out of. Way to go GAMEFREAK. You messed up big time.
I really don't think they're fibbing about the server overload. I mean that'd be pretty stupid from a business point of view to shut down all of eshop for hacked pokemon. I know they want to fix it, but not to the point where it costs Nintendo money. One day of eshop is probably like hundreds of dollars to be made, so this server error shouldn't last long otherwise, they're missing out on cash. Then again they're probably pretty confident that with the increase of 3DS sales so they'll be back on their feet in no time... so maybe we won't be so lucky... Pokebank being taken down and delayed is hopefully to fix the hack checker, although I'm bummed I won't be able to bring my shiny pokemon by using the "encounter shiny pokemon" code, it aggravates me when I see people getting destroyed by hacked Pokémon online. But if there's a shiny charm in Pokémon X and Y, it won't be a problem, just some time and effort.
Although if y'all wonder trade you might get some Pokebank pokemon! I just got a Cyndaquil from trading one of my Flabebes. It's kind of sucky but it's a sample of how my Cyndaquil will look when I can finally transfer it!

I dont think the eshop is 'over loaded w/ traffic,' as I'm in the middle of downloading Super Mario 3D World. I know it's on the Wii U eshop, but they stated that Nintendo Network as a whole is flooded. So I'm still pretty sure that they delayed it because of hacks making it through.

I was unable to log onto eshop straight through until last night, as were a lot of people over the couple days around Christmas. I'd figure they're bringing back services in a staggered manner while they beef up their servers. I'd like it if they were taking the time to strengthen hack checks, I'm just not holding my breath for it.

What are you talking about? Who said X and Y will be the only Pokémon games in 6th gen? The other 122 will be available when Z/W/X2Y2 or 3rd/4th Gen re-make comes out.
I can confirm the Free Battles are not foolproof. Tried using my obviously hacked Reshiram (perfect ivs, evs, and in a Pokeball? lolnope.), and it had no issue being used in a battle.
Yay for hacks. Not. Already seeing people breeding HA starters and giving them out. As much as Id like an open season next season where all Pokemon are allowed in the VGC, I def dont want to deal with it in Ranked. Yet another ball totally dropped by GF. How hard was it to implement a list of released abilities into the hack check in the program that was live for like 36 hours. Srsly.
Eshop is officially down worldwide. This means it is impossible to go online with a new copy of X/Y.
Edit: Eshop will be back online tomorrow. Around 4 in the morning EST

Phew, downloaded Mario in time!
Ya, I don't see how hard it would have been for them to write in the coding. Snivys, Tepigs, and Oshawoots with hidden abilities don't exist. :/

Ehhhhh? I can't seem to get on right now... well... ummm...
maybe the Wii U eShop works but they kept the 3DS one down so that way they can still make money but get time to figure out how to fix their servers? :S
I really don't know... but I'm gonna stick by my "Nintendo wouldn't shut down eShop just so they can stop hacked Pokemon from going through". They'd just take down Pokebank and delay its release. A big company like that likes to make money and is too busy making money in order to care about hacked Pokemon. I mean they'll try to fix it, but not at the cost of taking a shop down. Like the Museum I work in, refuses to close for snowstorms unless it's REALLY bad.
...but then again maybe the hacking thing is a bigger problem than I thought and Nintendo has made so much money from the Holidays and legitimately wants to fix the hacked pokemon issue and went as far as shutting down the 3DS eshop. Not something I expect from big money making companies though. But that's just my cynical rant being a guy who doesn't make a lot of money...
I'm jealous you're able to go on, I was gonna download it myself today. >.>;
EDIT: Whoops did not see the new page! Huh, so I WASN'T going crazy when I saw the Wii U shop closed. Also... I remember battling on BW2 online and... none of my *removed* Pokemon could battle. I'd get the "your Pokemon are not able to participate" message so I figured they were hack checked. Hahaha but I was just gonna send my shiny derpy rodents and cannon fodder to get killed, I just changed their abilities around a bit like a Patrat (nicknamed KickMyButt) with Drought and a Rattata (nicknamed InTheFace) with Roar. They weren't gonna stand a chance but my opponent would have a hilarious battle on his hand. Or... he'd just be annoyed as hell....
Ahem! Back to the point... dunno why something as simple as recognizing EVs, abilities, and small *removed* errors can't be detected. Or if they came from *removed*. *removed* tells you if your stats are illegal, dunno why the hack check can't...although I really would like a shiny Serperior with Contrary...:X
*[smod]Drohn[/smod]: I removed a few things from your post. Please keep in mind that you shouldn't name/discuss specific hacking software. Talking about hacks is fine as long as you don't mention the specific software/hardware. *

However some of their old Pokemon may have been hacked that went into their X and Y Versions without Nintendo, Game Freak, and Pokémon International having a chance to stop the flow of those hacked Pokemon going through with an online patch that could easily be downloaded on Nintendo's eShop on the 3DS free of charge (hopefully).

Actually yes you can have them transferred. If you know the right people to edit you shiny Pokemon to pass as legit when they are technically not then you can pass them off as legit and transfer them XD. If there is any red data they will not pass. XD.
