Pokemon HOME 3.1.1 Update

Version 3.1.1 for Pokemon HOME was added on Septermber 27th, 06:00 UTC. This update fixed some errors with the user interface and the application should now work as normal.

Pokemon HOME 3.1.0 Update

Pokemon HOME Undergoing Maintenance

Pokemon HOME will be undergoing maintenance from 0:00 UTC on September 13th until 06:00 UTC on the same day. Players will have staggered log in times which will run until September 14th at 06:00 UTC.

Pokemon HOME Maintenance September 13.png

UPDATE 9/13: As of midnight UTC, the Pokemon HOME maintenance has begun! Maintenance will continue until 6:00 AM UTC, and staggered logins means that some players won't be able to access their HOME Pokemon until 24 hours after that time at the latest, so it might take as long as 5-29 hours after the release of the Teal Mask DLC to get in.

September 13 Ability Data Tracking Update

Pokemon HOME 3.1.0
Fixes issue involving Abilities being reverted between games. Adding compatability to The Teal Mask DLC. Will allow importing of returning Pokemon.

A bug involving the effects of Ability changing items being reverted will be addressed and fixed in the upcoming 3.1.0 patch for Pokemon HOME, as well as allowing compatability with The Teal Mask DLC and importing additional Pokemon.

Ability Reverting Bug

Abilities Being Reverted Between Games

Pokemon Scarlet	→	Pokemon Sword	→	Pokemon Scarlet
Static	→	Ability changed to Lightning Rod using Ability Patch	→	Reverts back to Static

This issue occurs when a Pokemon caught in one game moves to another game via Pokemon Home, and an item is used to change its Ability. This transferred Pokemon will not have its new Ability in other games besides the game where the item was used.

How to Avoid This Issue

Pokemon Scarlet	→	Pokemon Sword
Static Ability changed to Lightning Rod using Ability Patch	→	Lightning Rod

Catching a Pokemon and changing its Ability before transferring it to another game via Pokemon HOME will make it so this issue does not occur.

How to Fix Affected Pokemon

These two methods will ensure that the affected Pokemon will have its new Ability.

Whatever Ability your Pokemon has the first time it is transferred to Pokemon HOME following the 3.1.0 update will be the Ability your Pokemon keeps.

First Method

Deposit your affected Pokemon into Pokemon HOME, then move it to the game where its Ability was changed before the 3.1.0 update, then deposit it back to Pokemon HOME.

Second Method

Before updating to version 3.1.0, keep your Pokemon in the game where its Ability was changed, then deposit it to Pokemon HOME following the 3.1.0 update.

Transferrable Pokemon

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet SV - Kitakami Wildlife

When the 3.1.0 update goes live, trainers will be able to transfer Pokemon from The Teal Mask to Pokemon HOME.

The Teal Mask: DLC Part 1 Release Date and New Pokemon

Transferred Pokemon Moves

A Pokemon's moveset may differ between different Pokemon games as each game has its own move data for each Pokemon. Ability data not being stored in the same way, may likely be a bug or oversight.
