Pokémon Home is getting a new update this this week to finally add compatibility with Pokémon Legends: Z-A. This feature, which has been highly anticipated since the game’s release in 2025, will allow players to transfer their Pokémon.

It will be possible to import certain Pokémon from older games into Pokémon Legends: Z-A, but only if they are compatible with its Pokédex. However, there is an important limitation to note: transfers are one-way, meaning that a Pokémon sent to Z-A cannot return to the previous games.
This restriction is due to differences in gameplay and mechanics between the games.

The update will be accompanied by a service maintenance period scheduled prior to its rollout: from midnight to 6:00 a.m. UTC on Thursday, April 2.
