The arrival of the application to Nintendo Switch, iOS and Android brings compatibility with about thirty creatures from previous generations.
Pokémon HOME is now available on iOS, Android and Nintendo Switch devices. The expected application, which brings with it the National Pokédex, the GTS and the possibility of transferring Pokémon between generations and previous titles, adds a total of 35 new creatures to Pokémon Sword and Shield, which add up to the 400 original species available in the region of Galar; among them, the regional forms Alola and Galar, if any.
In this way, apart from the Galar regional Pokédex, in order to get these new 35 species from the previous seven generations we must transfer them via Pokémon HOME to the Sword and Shield editions; For example, if we already had them in editions like Pokémon Let's GO Pikachu / Eevee or if they were part of our team in the Nintendo 3DS editions (Generations VI and VII), it will be enough to send them to HOME and, once there, send them to Pokémon Sword and Shield (the transfer is irreversible).
Let's meet those 35 new Pokémon compatible with Sword and Shield:
