In [[Pokémon GO]], the player can choose to '''transfer''' a Pokémon to [[Professor Willow]].

When a Pokémon is transferred to the professor, the player will also receive a [[candy]] for that Pokémon's species.


==={{g|Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee|s}}===
Transferring Pokémon to a [[Nintendo Switch]] title has basically the same effect on a player's account as transferring to Willow, except 100 [[Trainer level|XP]] is also awarded on top of candy for every transaction.
Releasing is replaced with transferring to Professor Oak who will give you candy in exchange. The game's starter Pokémon and anything in the party can't be transferred.
 
===Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu and Let's Go, Eevee!===
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], releasing Pokémon is also called transferring, like in Pokémon GO. A player can transfer up to 30 Pokémon at once to [[Professor Oak]], who will award one stat-specific candy (of varying sizes) for each Pokémon transferred, each candy's stat corresponding to what that Pokémon may yield if caught in the wild. For every 50 Pokémon of a common species the player transfers, Professor Oak will award a candy specific to that Pokémon's species. After every transfer, Professor Oak will tell the player the total number of Pokémon he or she has sent over.
 
The player's [[Partner Pokémon (game)|starter Pokémon]] and any [[party]] Pokémon cannot be transferred.
