Pokémon Nursery
The Pokémon Nursery (Japanese: ポケモン預かり屋 Pokémon Caretakers) is a location where Pokémon Trainers drop off their Pokémon under the care of the Nursery helpers.
In the games
Mechanics
The player can leave up to two Pokémon at the Pokémon Nursery, where they may breed to produce Eggs. When the player's Pokémon have made an Egg, the Pokémon Nursery lady outside will cross her arms in order to notify the player that an Egg has been made. If the player's party is full when they attempt to obtain an Egg, they can choose to send it to their PC or swap it with a Pokémon in their party.
Unlike Pokémon Day Care, Pokémon left at a Pokémon Nursery do not gain experience. Retrieving a deposited Pokémon from the Nursery costs $500.
In Generation VIII, if two Pokémon of the same species enter the Nursery, Egg Moves can be passed between them.
Locations
Alola
In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the Pokémon Nursery is located in Paniola Ranch on Akala Island. Its slogan is "Find some Pokémon Eggs!"
The Pokémon Nursery is run by a pair of Pokémon Breeders, two sisters who were inspired by the Pokémon Day Cares in other regions. Upon the player's first visit, the lady inside the Nursery will give the player an Egg containing Eevee.
A lady in the Nursery will tell the player what type a Pokémon's Hidden Power is.
Galar
In Pokémon Sword and Shield, there are two Pokémon Nurseries — one on Galar Route 5 and one in Bridge Field in the Wild Area. Both nurseries' slogan is "You've found the right place to come for all your Pokémon Egg finding needs."
All functions of both Nurseries are handled by the Nursery helper outside the building. Inside the Route 5 Nursery, a female Pokémon Breeder will give them a newly hatched Toxel. The other attendent will offer to explain the mechanics of Pokémon Breeding. The player cannot enter the Wild Area Nursery.
