* The mechanics of [[evolution]] have been changed. If a Pokémon achieves the requirement for an evolution (other than those that use [[Evolution item]]s), it will not evolve immediately, but instead gain the ability to evolve, with the player being able to activate the evolution at any point afterwards (at which point it cannot be canceled with the B Button).

If a Pokémon achieves the requirement for an evolution (other than those that use [[Evolution item]]s), it will not evolve immediately, but instead gain the ability to evolve, with the player being able to activate the evolution at any point afterwards by pressing the X button on it in the menu (at which point it cannot be canceled with the B Button).

** Pokémon that evolved by leveling up but also required some other condition to be met now only require for said other condition to be met, not needing to be leveled up (for example, Pokémon that previously evolved by leveling up with high [[friendship]] are now able to evolve immediately after achieving high friendship). | ** Pokémon that evolved by leveling up but also required some other condition to be met now only require for said other condition to be met, not needing to be leveled up (for example, Pokémon that previously evolved by leveling up with high [[friendship]] are now able to evolve immediately after achieving high friendship). | ||
*** As in [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]], [[:Category:Pokémon that evolve by training in a certain location|Pokémon that evolve in certain locations]] can now also evolve using [[Evolution stone]]s, but unlike in said game, this now applies to {{p|Eevee}} evolving into {{p|Glaceon}} and {{p|Nosepass}} evolving into {{p|Probopass}} as well. | *** As in [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]], [[:Category:Pokémon that evolve by training in a certain location|Pokémon that evolve in certain locations]] can now also evolve using [[Evolution stone]]s, but unlike in said game, this now applies to {{p|Eevee}} evolving into {{p|Glaceon}} and {{p|Nosepass}} evolving into {{p|Probopass}} as well. | ||

As with other games on Nintendo Switch, the game is not compatible with other games of the same generation. The game supports online connectivity and [[Trade|trading]] with other players of Legends: Arceus, but does not include [[Pokémon battle|battles]] between players.

Additionally, when a Pokémon originating from another game first enters this game, its moveset is changed to its four most recent level-up moves by default (though the player can make alterations as of HOME's version 3.0.0, released on May 30, 2023), but its original moves will be restored if it is returned to HOME. The Pokémon will also not have its [[origin mark]] displayed if it was brought from {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. | ||
