What are you gonna do when Pokemon Home finally gets support for Legends ZA? Anything you bring to Kalos will never be able to go to an older game again, and we're just assuming it'll be able to go into newer games going forward.

Personally I think it's retarded that the thing Home was made to do, transfer your Pokemon to and from all the Switch games, suddenly won't work if you put them in their newest game, so unless it literally can't go to any other game like Genesect, I'm not putting shit in there unless you can get a new ribbon for doing something in ZA when the new games come out.

>Make two saves
>Only up one of them

Different game, same shit.
>>
>>58698798
It dont work because the creators dont thing foward. We all know its all becaue they added A NEW LANGUAGE support. And istead of old games going "KK thats not known language pokemon: game shits itself.
>>
I'm just not going to transfer. I'm not even going to get the dlc, I hate Z-A's gameplay that much.
>>
I’m already ribboning up my favorites because we know gen 10 gonna have the same lock
>>
>>58698806
Couldn't they give the older titles a version update to add compatibility? It seems like such a simple fix.
>>
>>58698798
Genesect can go to Sword and Shield btw, just not your copy because you haven’t seen a Genesect yet so it won’t let you move your Go one.
lol
>>
>>58698830
Japan dont do that for some reason. Tons of games are like that.
>>
>>58698833
That's a cool feature. I saw that I couldn't transfer it to Sword, and it is literally the only Pokemon in Home that has this issue.
>>
>>58698830
small indie company please understand
>>
>>58698864
All mythicals from go are like that. It’s annoying. You have to, in some way, encounter them before they can go in any game unless they’ve been traded.
>>
>>58698915
So I'd have to trade it to someone who got the Genesect in their game and have them trade it to me. That's retarded.
>>
>>58698919
That, or more realistically, have someone touch trade you a Genesect in Sword and Shield, then you can freely move it back and forth.
>>
>>58698798
I just plain do not care. There's nothing special about trading up pokemon anymore the way they do it now, it's literally pointless. Just catch a new copy of your favorite in the newest game, shove some bottlecaps down their throat maybe, then move on.
>>
>>58698919
Also to be clear, it’s the Home trade flag. If you trade it to someone else in Home then trade back, it will have no limitations.
>>
>>58698798
>we're just assuming it'll be able to go into newer games going forward
They haven't said that

>>58698806
wait, so is that the reason? That's extremely retarded.
HOME is supposed to keep track of values that are incompatible with older games, a Pokémon caught in SV and sent to SwSh doesn't lose the SV icon or the exact catch location, it's retarded that HOME can't just sent them as "spanish" and save the "spanish-latam" label for when it's moved back to Z-A.

Now if that's the real reason, at least they will be able to be sent to gen 10/champions/etc. Which is marginally less shit
>>
>>58698928
If you care about ribbons I guess. I liked that you could use them as titles in the newer games, and if it's anything like Legends Arceus, there will probably be a few you can get from this game that'll transfer to the new games, assuming said Pokemon can make it over there.
>>
>>58699013
Maybe, maybe not. ZA is incredibly fucked up when it comes to ribbons for some reason. The dataminer guy who posts the most about it was unsure why it was broken in the way it was.
>>
>>58699208
Broken how? Are Pokemon just gonna lose ribbons if they get transferred over to it or something?
>>
>>58699210
Something about how it can't add/recognize ribbons. Like the gift ralts SHOULD have a ribbon but the game can't give it a ribbon, so it won't when it goes to another game. https://x.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1979617582966526401

>>58699218
How perfectly incompetent. You'd think they'd hire someone who knows how to work on video games at this point.
>>
>>58698805
/thread

>>58699000
Yes, it would be trivially easy to add the PLZA language value to the PLZA part of the save, then use that when converting the language value in the base part to maintain compatibility. Game Freak is monumentally lazy and don't want to bother with what would be an unironic five minute fix.
>>
>>58698798
im just gonna put Eternal Floette in my living dex, already have a placehorlder for her
>>
>No Ribbons in ZA
My autism is going to be bothered by not having the friendship ribbon on my ZA mons either way, since many of these Pokemon will be absent in Gen 10. What the fuck were they thinking?
>>
I'm just going to transfer them, I'm not a spergy little child who thought Home meant everything forevermore was going to be cross-compatible (you're clearly very young if you think that was going to happen, they locked everyone from moving back regularly in the days before your birth).
>>
>>58700803
For somebody who isnt a sperg you sure talk like one.
>>
>>58698798
There's no ribbons so I don't care enough to transfer anything to ZA
>>
>>58698830
They can but they wont.
They didn't add new pokeball and ribbon support for SWSH.
And worse, they didn't solve the Spinda issue.

>>58698864
>That's a cool feature.
No, its retarded. I had all mythicals but the cool thing about Go is how it made a lot more accesible.
>>
>>58698798
I’m going to transfer by XY team to ZA.
