what's going on everyone austin john please here and today we're going to be going over
the brand new pokemon go home connectivity for mobile ios android and nintendo switch
at the time of recording they are going to be rolling out these features based on your pokemon
go level when this went live at 5 45 pm eastern standard time on november 10th it's only available
for level 40 players and i unfortunately am only level 36 and cannot do that uh this has officially
updated on both the nintendo switch version so if you open up nintendo switch and pokemon home
you're gonna see something here that says pokemon go where you could transfer pokemon if you open up
the mobile version you're gonna see the same thing now here's the thing we knew that this was going
to cost something to transfer these pokemon and i want to go over that now until you know i have the
availability to you know transfer over my pokemon it's important to know what you can transfer as
soon as this goes live for you right uh thanks to joe merrick who already started listing this first
things first we already knew you cannot transfer over pokemon in costumes so your charmander that's
wearing a cubone skull and your gengar that has the zippers on it those cannot go over
it also says pokemon forms cannot be transferred i'm not too sure exactly what this means and uh
maybe it's things that you know aren't available in the mainline games anyways if we look right
here there's transfer costs so how this works is you're going to have a transporter and the
transporter takes a full week to restore and the transporter has a total of 10 000
energy right and here we go the go transport energy is up to 10 000 with a gain of 60
energy an hour and the costs are as follows so for standard pokemon those are 10 each so in theory
you can transfer over 100 basic pokemon no problem also i hear that it takes one full week in order
for this to fully recharge if it's shiny that adds additional 1990 energy so you can transfer
five shiny pokemon in a week that's it or and then there's also additional fees if they're high cps
which those are negligible in the grand scheme of things if we look at the legendary pokemon here
those are a thousand each should be which means that you could transfer 10 legendary pokemon
a week but if they're shiny that's an additional 9 000 which means that you could transfer one shiny
legendary pokemon a week honestly this seems a little balanced to me same thing goes for mythical
if it's a mythical shiny you could transfer one a week which definitely makes sense because a lot of
these mythical pokemon have never been available in the united states and a lot of countries in
their shiny form legitimately you know and then a lot of them you just haven't been able to get them
unless you had specific events specific places certain times of the year it's been a whole mess
but now that anyone doing these raids has a chance to catch these this does seem a little balanced
and then there's also a whole oh here we go this is what we talked about as far as the forms
cast form in its weather forms when the transfer is over it's just going to be normal form
cherum is going to become its normal form same thing with garatina loses its origin form
uh darmanathan zen mode the golorian zen mode any of the special drives for genesect the pirouette
mellowetta and pokemon that cannot transfer any spinda that makes sense because spinda coding is
weird armored mewtwo makes sense because he's not in the games despite the sword and shield leaks
the clone pokemon from the original pokemon movie any of the special hats the halloween costumes of
bulbasaur charmander squirtle etc squirtle squad squirtle squirtle squad blastoise any of the
party hat pokemon any of the exclusive pokemon go pikachus i do want to note that the cap pikachu's
can be transferred special gengar's camp the special eevees can't the special pichu's can't
you get the idea there's no real pokemon that you didn't expect that couldn't be transferred
that can't be transferred okay so don't worry about that in addition uh now players who are
level 38 can nominate new pokemon stops that's neat but not transfer yet i i think this is gonna
be a fast rollout they just don't want you know everyone who's a low level to start transferring
over their pokemon all at the same time and your secondary accounts and stuff like that
yeah i still don't have the option in settings but my friends like zoe two dots who is level 40 says
that it is live for level 40 players your first time transferring over pokemon from go into home
you are gonna get access to the special gmax mel metal event uh again i'm not that level so can't
do it yet that's gonna be a video for later or tomorrow neat also i i don't know if it's gonna
be like oh now level 39 can now level 38 or if they're just going to be like okay now it's going
to be level 35 and then 30 and then 25 if they're going to jump down more aggressively like that
in regard to the charging you can wait the time which is a full seven days hour to hour for a
full ten thousand energy or you are allowed to charge it and if you do decide to charge it
give me a moment here okay it takes 1 000 coins in order to fully charge the transporter energy
how much does a thousand coins cost i don't think that's cheap i do not think that is cheap
a thousand coins is well for ten dollars you could buy 1200 coins so it's it's about nine
dollars to tran to refill your transporter so either wait a week or you spend 10 bucks uh i
i don't think that they should have given you the option to to speed it up at the same time like
they it makes sense because having that pay wall in place makes it so you don't devalue the pokemon
being in pokemon go and you don't have this as an option to just mass transfer out pokemon
i mean if you have let's go pikachu and evie you could do that with any pokemon in the kanto region
but when you're getting into your chinese legendaries and your shiny mythicals like
i have a shiny genesect and a heatran i don't have a lot i have maybe excluding all my shiny magikarp
excluding all my shiny cantonians i maybe have eight or ten pokemon and
ones that i don't already have in pokemon sword and shield four so i'll be good in
a month and this is in place that way you don't you know transfer out all the pokemon
and now you don't need to buy additional box space in pokemon go it make it makes sense
why they're doing it from a business standpoint you shouldn't see this as a way that they're
trying to make a quick buck off of you this is essentially in place that way you don't leave
pokemon go it makes sense if you're going to be mad at it then you're going to be mad at it
i don't know it's rough there's going to be people that are going to argue at both sides but
i see why they're doing it and you have to at least acknowledge that they do have a good reason
for that to be in place so yeah as of the time of this recording it's not available for players
under level 40. i'm sure in the coming hours and days that's going to change i'm officially late
for dinner now i got to edit this video and get it out to you lovely people well great once the
event officially goes live and you are able to get gmax mel metal and pokemon sword and shield
i am gonna be making up a follow-up video letting you know as far as the level requirements for that
