While your Pokémon on the original Game Boy cartridges are unfortunately off limits (unless, of course, you’ve been playing the Virtual Console versions) it’s possible to take Pokémon from the Game Boy Advance all the way through to Sword, Shield, Legends: Arceus, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

Though Pokémon Home is designed to easily work with Pokémon Go and the Nintendo Switch Pokémon games, it can also support Pokémon from previous generations with careful planning thanks to Pokémon Bank. Pokémon Home is the latest version of an online deposit box for your Pokémon - a service started many years ago on the Game Boy Color with Pokémon Silver and Gold's Time Capsule, through to the most recent predecessor in Pokémon Bank on the 3DS.
