Pokebank Question - Vohras - Jul 6, 2016
So with Sun/Moon coming out in a few months, I'm looking to get my first subscription to pokebank. However, I'm curious as to whether I can nickname pokemon that I take out of the bank?

The PokéBank doesn't change a thing, Pokémon can only be renamed in their game of origin.

Any Pokemon that doesn't have the same Trainer ID and Secret ID won't have their name changes, unless you have access to copies of games (XY and ORAS) where you can change the names there, but only for gen 6 Pokemon (with the pentagon). Any Pokemon from gen 5 or below won't have their nicknames changed unless you either use outside methods like powersaves/pkhex to do so, but at that point its considered cheating.
