In Pokemon Red and Blue, you're storing your pokemon in Bill's PC, not Bill's highly available georedundant cloud. One brown out and all your critters are gone.

That’s right. Pay no attention to the duplication glitch that occurs if you disconnect your Gameboys after trading one way.

It’s definitely not restoring your totally unique and definitely not artificially reconstructed friend from a read only snapshot due to a glitch in Bill’s transfer code.
