:house: Pokémon Home: Information

Hey @everyone ! Pokémon Home is set to release in February of 2020, and now we have some information on what's to come! First off, there are two versions: Basic (free) and Premium (paid).

Some of the features that are included in both versions include storage, the GTS (it's returned!), Wonder Box (similar to Wonder/Surprise Trade), Room Trade (trade with a group in a room and randomly get one Pokémon from the pool), and Friend Trade (standard trading). Initially, it will work with Bank (Premium only), Let's Go, and SWSH.

There are also additional things you can do, such as check out National Dex entries, receive Mystery Gifts, check battle data, and exchange Pokémon Home points for Battle Points in your games!

The Basic (free) version has content which will allow you to store up to 30 Pokémon from SWSH and Let's Go, as well as to put 1 Pokémon at a time into the GTS, and up to 3 Pokémon in the Wonder Box. You cannot host a Room Trade but you can participate in one.

The Premium (paid) version has this basic functionality but you can do more with it! You can store up to 6,000 Pokémon (that's 200 boxes!), trade up to 3 Pokémon at a time in the GTS, and trade up to 10 Pokémon in the Wonder Box! You will also have extra features not in the paid version, such as hosting Room Trades, transfer Pokémon from Bank, and use the Judge function to view the IVs from your Pokémon!

The premium version can be purchased for 1 month ($2.99 USD), 3 months ($4.99 USD), or 12 months ($15.99 USD).

There will also be an app for your smartphone that you can use! This will have some similar functionalities to the version on the Switch (transfer from Bank and Judge Pokémon), along with functionalities only for the phone (Trade, Mystery Gifts, and Battle Data).

Note: Some features, such as the friends list function, will be restricted for users under the age of 16.

We hope you're excited for Pokémon Home to arrive!
