Just reminding people about the upcoming Pokemon Bank free trial:
Most relevant thing? This free trial period is your only free chance to transfer Pokemon from your older games (well, Black/White & Black 2/White 2) to Pokemon X & Y. So don't miss out, because it'll be pay-only from January 31st onwards.
The main feature of Pokémon Bank is the possibility of players depositing up to 3000 Pokémon from the games in an online cloud. The referred cloud will work as a PC, and will have 100 boxes capable of carrying, like in a normal PC, 30 Pokémon each. It will feature search options allowing the player to locate deposited Pokémon.
Brigette (the host of Pokémon Box Ruby and Sapphire, a game that primarily serves as a mass Pokémon storage utility) maintains the Pokémon Bank service. She gives the player 100 Poké Miles when Pokémon are deposited into Pokémon Bank.

After the download of Pokémon Bank, it is possible to use a separately downloaded app, the Poké Transporter, to transfer Pokémon from Generation V games to the cloud. After this, it is possible to complete such migration by simply downloading them to the Generation VI game.
Additionally, the migration of certain Pokémon from Generation V via Pokémon Bank will trigger the availability of certain items within Pokémon X and Y. The transfer of Kyurem and Genesect allows the DNA Splicers and the Drives, respectively, to become available within X and Y.
