→Limitations: added additional reference for HOME moveset storage issues, performed verifying test myself.
(→Game-specific data and HOME tracker value: corrected misinformation about Contest stats and Sheen being one of the values stored by HOME, and SWSH/PLA not containing values for those parameters. SWSH and Legends Arceus do infact contain parameters for contest stats, they are just not visible ingame. Changed example case to Alpha flag from Legends Arceus.) |

** [[Gigantamax]] Factor {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Eevee}}, and {{p|Meowth}} cannot be transferred to {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} or {{g|Legends: Arceus}}. This is to prevent them from [[evolution|evolving]], as the destination games do not recognize the Gigantamax Factor.<ref>[https://twitter.com/SerebiiNet/status/1526900020011745282?s=20&t=EjiW0CDu0avbVjizmVLcmA @SerebiiNet]</ref> | ** [[Gigantamax]] Factor {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Eevee}}, and {{p|Meowth}} cannot be transferred to {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} or {{g|Legends: Arceus}}.

*** 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.)<ref>https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/pokemon-brilliant-diamond-and-shining-pearl-release-19th-nov-2021.3679043/page-107#post-9223109</ref> | *** 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}}.

** {{p|Spinda}} cannot be transferred between Pokémon HOME and [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]] because of a [[List of glitches (Generation VIII)#Spinda spot pattern glitch|bug]] in the latter game where the bytes of Spinda's [[encryption constant]] are mistakenly read in reverse order. Were transfers to be allowed, Spinda's spot pattern would change on transfer. | ** {{p|Spinda}} cannot be transferred between Pokémon HOME and [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]] because of a [[List of glitches (Generation VIII)#Spinda spot pattern glitch|bug]] in the latter game where the bytes of Spinda's [[encryption constant]] are mistakenly read in reverse order.
