Trainers will be able to transfer their Pokemon to the upcoming Sword and Shield with the announcement of Pokemon Home!

That’s right, you’ll be able to transfer your favorite Pokemon to the upcoming Sword and Shield with the announcement of Pokemon Home. Pokemon Home, which is set to operate as a hub for your Pokemon from all games, will serve as the new source for transferring Pokemon from older games to the newer installments. The beauty of Pokemon Home is how far it reaches! Trainers will not only be able to transfer Pokemon from Let’s Go to their new game, but from just about every past game; Pokemon Go!, Let’s Go, 3DS titles, and Pokebank!

While there is no set release date, we expect to hear more June 5th on the Nintendo Direct for Pokemon Sword and Shield.
