After it ends, Pokemon caught in FRLG can move to HOME and into other Pokemon titles, one way only. Both the Switch and smartphone apps move to ver. 4.1.0, and the Premium Plan storage cap rises from 6,000 to 9,000 at the same fee.","whyItMatters":"The maintenance turns the February 27 Switch release of FireRed and LeafGreen into a working transfer source for HOME, which is the practical step that lets two-decade-old save data feed current Pokemon games.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe Switch port of FireRed and LeafGreen arrived on February 27, and the HOME link was decided alongside it. The October 7 window is the part that makes the link usable: for six hours, every HOME function goes offline on both the Switch and smartphone versions while the app moves to ver. 4.1.0.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo details change how players should prepare. Transfers are one way, so anything sent out of FRLG cannot come back. And FRLG Pokedex registration carries over to the linked HOME Pokedexes, so Pokemon a player wants to keep in FRLG do not need to be sent over to finish that dex. Completing the FRLG-compatible dex in the smartphone version yields a Celebi with the Original Trainer name Mitsurin.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Pokemon HOME's transfer into other titles is one way only. FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon can leave those games but never return, so the link is an exit, not a round trip.","twitterPost":"The FireRed and LeafGreen link is one way only.
