Pokémon Champions connects to Pokémon HOME. You can bring in Pokémon from your other games, from Pokémon Legends: Z-A to Pokémon GO, as long as they are among the Pokémon available in Champions.

What You Need to Know

  • Only Pokémon that are in Pokémon Champions can be sent there from HOME.
  • Pokémon obtained in Champions (recruited or received as gifts) cannot be sent to HOME.
  • A Pokémon that knows moves unavailable in Champions must learn others through training.
  • Training done in Champions is not kept in HOME. If the Pokémon later comes back to Champions, it returns to the state it was in before leaving.
  • If a Pokémon changes form between two stays, its training in Champions is canceled.
Pokémon HOME links Champions to your other games.

Exclusive forms

Some forms can only be obtained by transferring them from HOME: Eternal Floette, Vivillon patterns, Furfrou trims.
