August 18 Pokemon Presents: Everything We Learned
In Hearthome City's Amity Square, you can walk around with up to 6 of your party Pokemon. You can take photos while strolling the park. The photos are saved to your Album in Pokemon HOME, provided that you have an account.
It is confirmed that Pokemon HOME will allow us to transfer Pokemon from Sword & Shield to Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl. Pokemon native to Sinnoh that are caught in Sword & Shield will be able to make the transfer via Pokemon HOME.
Sword and Shield Compatibility
Pokemon Legends: Arceus will also receive support from Pokemon HOME in 2022, which could mean transferring Pokemon between the 2 games will be possible.
Since Legends: Arceus takes place in the early Sinnoh region (Hisui), we can transfer Pokemon to and from BDSP and Legends: Arceus.
