==Features==
===Pokémon storage===
Pokémon HOME allows two-way transfer to and from the [[Pokémon Storage System]] in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] and [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]] using the Nintendo Switch version. Only Pokémon that can be obtained in each game can be transferred to those games. Any Pokémon caught in or transferred to Sword and Shield cannot be transferred to Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. It also allows one-way transfer of Pokémon from the [[Nintendo 3DS]] core series games through [[Pokémon Bank]] using either version with a Premium Plan. One-way transfers from [[Pokémon GO]] will be made available in the future.


==Premium Prices==
Up to 30 Pokémon can be deposited, which increases to 6,000 Pokémon with a Premium Plan. The [[Judge]] function is available in either version with a Premium Plan.
 
===Trading===
Pokémon can be traded using the mobile phone version. There are four types of trades:
 
* '''Wonder Box''' (Japanese: '''ミラクルボックス''' ''Miracle Box''): Up to 3 Pokémon (10 Pokémon with a Premium Plan) can be deposited for trade at once. Like [[Wonder Trade]]s and [[Surprise Trade]]s, they will be traded at random for other Pokémon.
* '''[[Global Trade System|GTS]]''': One Pokémon (3 Pokémon with a Premium Plan) can be deposited for trade at once, in exchange for a requested Pokémon.
* '''Room Trade''' (Japanese: '''グループ交換''' ''Group Exchange''): Players can join a room of up to 20 people to exchange Pokémon among them. Players can also host a room with a Premium Plan.
* '''Friend Trade''' (Japanese: '''フレンド交換''' ''Friend Exchange''): Players can trade Pokémon with friends registered in Pokémon HOME.
 
===National Pokédex===
Pokémon HOME features a [[National Pokédex]] that records information on Pokémon that have been deposited in the Boxes in Pokémon HOME. Users can view basic information and Pokédex entries from the [[Generation VI]], {{gen|VII}}, and {{gen|VIII}} core series games of Pokémon they have registered. Pokédex entries from other languages and alternate [[form]]s of Pokémon can also be registered.
 
The mobile app version of Pokémon HOME also allows players to view the possible [[move]]s and {{Abilities}} a Pokémon can have.
 
===Mystery Gifts===
{{main|Mystery Gift}}
Gifts for Pokémon Sword and Shield as well as Pokémon HOME itself can be received using the mobile app. Pokémon received can be deposited directly into the Boxes in Pokémon HOME.
 
===Your Room===
Players can customize their profile using stickers obtained by completing Challenges. In the mobile app, players can also view Battle Data and News, replacing the Rankings, Distribution Regulations, and Event Calendar features of the Pokémon Global Link.
 
Pokémon HOME Points replace [[Poké Mile]]s as a currency. 1 [[Battle Point]] is equivalent to 30 points, which can be transferred in the Nintendo Switch version.
