Are there any benefits or gifts from transferring older generations Pokemon to the newer ones?

I can't remember correctly but I read somewhere that if you traded Pokemon from Gold or Silver from Virtual Console to Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon you were able to get a full set of the johto poke balls (Apricorn).

Aside from that, is there any other benefit from transferring Pokemon from older generation (Pokemon RBY/GSC from the virtual Console, and Pokemon RSE/FRLG/DPP/HGSS/BW/B2W2/XY/ORAS) to Gen 7 games(USUM)?

By this I mean anything, like a certificate, an item, a PC Wallpaper, something obtained for taking the time to transfer your old mons.

Edit: It would be nice to also know if there is anything to be obtained from transferring Gen 3-5 to Gen 6 games, but my main interest is from Gen 7, since they are the only ones where you can get Pokemon from all generations.



Best Answer

As far as i know you get the jhoto pokeballs without trading from Virtual Console G/S/C. In the GAME FREAK building in Heahea City if you talk to a guy (don't remember who) and you have a jhoto starter in your team you get the pokeballs but only once per game. For benefits i guess its all about how you see it. You can mess around with the egg you get that has the high shiny chance and get all baby pokemon shiny. Also only Virtual Crystal has the celebi event where you can shiny hunt Celebi.

What happens if you trade a Gen 2 Pokémon to Gen 1?

When linked up to a Generation I game, the trade will happen as it did in Generation I, and the Generation II game will act as if it is a Generation I game. If the Pok\xe9mon traded from the Generation I game changes its type during the trade (except Magnemite and Magneton), the trade is immediately cancelled.
