*** This is due to HOME being unable to correctly handle moveset swapping once Nincada's moveset is copied onto two Pokémon after evolving into {{p|Ninjask}} and {{p|Shedinja}}. (For example, a Nincada from Sword/Shield could be taught the Sword/Shield-exclusive {{m|Round}}, then transferred to Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl and evolved there. The player would now have a Ninjask and Shedinja both with Nincada's Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl level-up moves. Ninjask alone could then be transferred back to Sword/Shield and taught the Sword/Shield-exclusive {{m|Acrobatics}} over Round, then transferred back to Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl. At this point, if the player tries to transfer Shedinja into Sword/Shield for the first time, it should regain Round, not Acrobatics, but HOME's moveset tracker has already replaced Round by Acrobatics in the relevant data. If this Nincada in Sword/Shield is evolved first before being transferred, HOME can correctly track that two different Pokémon have Round in their Sword/Shield movesets.) | *** This is due to HOME being unable to correctly handle moveset swapping once Nincada's moveset is copied onto two Pokémon after evolving into {{p|Ninjask}} and {{p|Shedinja}}.
