Awesome
This game is awesome but how do you get more Pokémon than 2?
The best game
When I first got this game I was mad cause I could trade at all. Then I connected it to my Nintendo switch and then I could trade Pokémon and it was the best thing I could possibly get. I got a shiny Ursaluna for a Vivllion. Isn’t that the best?!? So I have been using it. I definitely recommend it.
Pokémon go
Can you make it so I can transfer Pokémon to Pokémon Go
Add More Pokémon slots to the default plan
Really useful but why do I have to pay $$ to keep more than 30 Pokémon just make an update to the app where you get 100 Pokémon by default instead of just 30 without having to pay $$ I understand that the paid subscription to the service will have to offer more slots to keep Pokémon maybe 12,000 Pokémon stored
It killed my grandpa
He cried and died his pikachu died I’m happy he is pikachu gone
Not interested
There’s not that much to offer and if you don’t have a Pokémon app there’s nothing to do with it. You need to make it more interesting and have more activities. You need to put more things in it.😒
Greedy as EA, just as shady
I am so, SO sick of being price gouged by this company. Literally charging you for space to store Pokémon after 20–what a joke. Anything to force you into their stupid “Premium” plan (yeah, because if there’s one thing I think of when I look at a stupid empty box to put stuff in, it’s the word “Premium”). Pokémon is an iconic franchise, but unlike Mario, Zelda, etc, the company acts with no class whatsoever. They are NEVER above the fray. If there’s a buck to be made, they’ll find a way to price gouge. While other legendary franchises have some sense of decorum, Pokemon continues to act like the 2-bit sheister with a booth outside of the circus tent, trying to hustle passerby’s into a game of ring toss. They are the carnival barker of the gaming world.
Dosnt work
The app wont load for my phone i have downloaded this app 2 times and it wont work
Very good, but a few things:
1. You need to be able to filter to shiny in the GTS. I’ve been looking for a shiny Swoobat for a while, and the odds that someone would put a shiny if it’s not a filter are very low. 2. You should be able to make offers, for example, someone puts up a level 45 shiny Furfrou, and they ask for a Zacian. You then tap the offer button and send your offer, and they can accept or decline. With this, you should also be able to just put Pokémon up for offer. 3. You should be able to mass trade. Although this would be messy, if you have a friend who wants to trade more than one Pokémon to you at once, you should be able to trade multiple for one, one for multiple, or multiple for multiple. This would make obtaining legendaries and shinies from trade much easier. 4. You should be able to commission people to get a certain Pokémon for you. Now, this may lead to problems, but I think the idea of a system where you can ask someone to get a specific Pokémon is cool. You would fill out specifics, such as how long they’re allowed to take to get it, and, if it’s in multiple games, specify what game you want it from. Anyone who has the game/s that you can obtain it from can click on the request and accept it. A Pokémon would be put up as payment, which would stay in the original owner’s inventory until the request is fulfilled. The person getting the Pokémon would catch or find the requested Pokémon within the timeframe, and then, once they transferred it to Pokémon Home, go to the request and tap Send. The Pokémon would be sent to the one who requested it, and the person who got it would be given their Pokémon automatically. This would make trading for a specific Pokémon easier, as instead of the risk of trying super hard to get the requested trade and then going back to the GTS to find the Pokémon not there, you’d secure the opportunity and have a while to get it before the deadline comes and the request is put back up for another person to accept. Also, after a failed request, you should have a waiting time of a day or something before you can accept another, that way trolls would be less frequent.
“A place where all your Pokémon can gather” is misleading and inaccurate…
When I first found out about this, it was because I had picked up Pokémon GO and was able to get a Mystery Box that lets me catch Meltan to my heart’s content. That’s really nice but what it’s for is storing your Pokémon… unfortunately it doesn’t hook up to anything from the earlier generations anymore. So that’s… 20 years… 2 DECADES… worth of progress that I can’t get off my cartridges now because the service, Pokémon Bank, no longer can be acquired unless you already had it. So for a returning player, like myself, Pokémon Home is unfortunately not very useful unless Nintendo decides to allow us to link it up to our older game titles like Black & White and earlier where I have 2 decades worth of progress and Pokémon that I can’t bring with me now to Violet or future titles. TL;DR I’ll update my rating when Home allows me to link up with the majority of the games because as of now (May 13, 2023), Home only connects with a minority of titles and isn’t truly a “place where all your Pokémon can gather.”
