Following the introduction of {{g|HOME}} compatibility, the ability to transfer alpha Pokémon to other [[Generation VIII]] games became available. A consequence of this is an alpha Pokémon can be evolved into a different [[regional form]] (or species) not compatible with Pokémon Legends: Arceus, giving rise to 9 HOME-exclusive alpha forms: the original forms of {{p|Typhlosion}}, {{p|Lilligant}}, {{p|Braviary}}, {{p|Sliggoo}}, {{p|Goodra}}, {{p|Avalugg}}, {{p|Decidueye}}; the Galarian form of {{p|Mr. Mime}}; and {{p|Mr. Rime}}. A 10th HOME-exclusive alpha form became available following the {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}-HOME compatibility update: the original form of {{p|Samurott}}; however, the alpha icon no longer displays for the HOME-exclusive alphas. Instead, an alpha mark is obtained if any alpha is transferred to Scarlet and Violet. All HOME-exclusive alpha forms except the Galarian form of {{p|Mr. Mime}} and {{p|Mr. Rime}} can be transferred and therefore obtain the alpha mark. | Following the introduction of {{g|HOME}} compatibility, the ability to transfer alpha Pokémon to other [[Generation VIII]] games became available.

Before {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} received integration with {{g|HOME}} in HOME v3.0.0, Pokémon originating from {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} or earlier that were then transferred into Legends: Arceus received minimum [[Size and weight variation|heights and weights]] (scalar values of 0, as prior to {{g|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!}} height and weight were not generated as distinct values); following the update, randomized heights and weights will be assigned to them instead, provided they haven't been assigned a size already by being transferred to another [[Generation VIII]] or {{gen|IX}} game. | Before {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} received integration with {{g|HOME}} in HOME v3.0.0, Pokémon originating from {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} or earlier that were then transferred into Legends: Arceus (via {{g|Bank}} and HOME) received minimum [[Size and weight variation|heights and weights]] (scalar values of 0, as prior to {{g|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!}} height and weight were not generated as distinct values); following the update, randomized heights and weights will be assigned to them instead, provided they haven't been assigned a size already by being transferred to another [[Generation VIII]] or {{gen|IX}} game. | ||
Due to how [[Size_and_weight_variation#Pokémon GO|size variation]] functions in [[Pokémon GO]], there is a 1 in 250 chance each to potentially obtain an XXS or XXL Pokémon. When such a Pokémon is transferred to {{g|HOME}} and then into {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, this translates to both height and weight scalar values being set to 0 or 255 respectively for it, i.e. the Pokémon will have the minimum or maximum height and weight possible for that species (or form) in-game. Although 0 and 255 may not be precisely needed to result in the minimum and maximum measurements for a Pokémon, for both height and weight scalar values to be either 0 or 255 natively in Legends: Arceus, the chance is less than 1 in 250 million each. | Due to how [[Size_and_weight_variation#Pokémon GO|size variation]] functions in [[Pokémon GO]], there is a 1 in 250 chance each to potentially obtain an XXS or XXL Pokémon.
