Question

Is there a way to transfer Pokemon from other gens to X/Y like in gen 5, or do I have to use pokebank?

Answer 1

It can only transfer Pokemon from Gen V to Gen VI.

However, you can migrate Pokemon from Gen III to Gen IV, then migrate that Pokemon from Gen IV to Gen V, and then migrate that Pokemon from Gen V to Gen VI, respectively.

And you can only transfer Pokemon through the PokeTransfer and PokeBank and shtuff, which is available as Nintendo 3DS Applications.

Hope I helped. :)
