Details regarding Pokemon Home have finally been revealed officially. Pokemon Home will be available from February 2020. Pokemon Home, Pokémon HOME is a cloud service for Nintendo Switch and compatible mobile devices designed as a place where all Pokémon can gather.
By linking the same Nintendo Account to both the Nintendo Switch version and the mobile version of Pokémon HOME, players will be able to access the same Pokémon Boxes and trade Pokemon from any time and anywhere.
There are four ways to trade Pokémon using Pokémon HOME on your mobile device.
Wonder Box
Pokémon placed in the Wonder Box can be traded with people around the world before you even know it! The Pokémon placed in the Wonder Box will be traded even when you’re not using Pokémon HOME.
You’ll be able to increase the number of Pokémon you can trade at once by enrolling in a Premium Plan (paid).
GTS
With the GTS, you’ll be able to specify which Pokémon you want to trade and which Pokémon you want to receive and then be matched with a Trainer whose requests meet your criteria. You’ll even be able to request Pokémon that you haven’t yet registered in Pokémon HOME’s National Pokédex!
You’ll be able to increase the number of Pokémon you can trade at once by enrolling in a Premium Plan (paid).
Room Trade
Room Trade lets you create a room and trade Pokémon among the people who join. Each room can hold up to 20 people. To add a little suspense, you won’t know what Pokémon you’ll receive until the trade is complete.
Trading in rooms has no cost, but you’ll only be able to create rooms when enrolled in a Premium Plan (paid).
Friend Trade
Friend Trade allows you to trade your Pokémon with other users who you’ve become friends with in Pokémon HOME. You can add friends using the Add Friend feature in Pokémon HOME.
The features related to adding and managing friends in Pokémon HOME cannot be used by users under the age of 16.
