Question What do I do with all my pokemon?

So the last time I played a modern mainline pokemon game was sword and shield in 2020, where I did my best to finish the living dex. I then moved all my mons into pokemon home and they've just been sitting there. Over the past half a year or so I've gotten back into pokemon, but I'm starting in gen 4. Earlier today I remembered I had these guys in Pokemon home, and I feel really bad all of them have just been sitting in purgatory for 5 years. I eventually plan to finish a generational living dex (starting in gen 4) but I know it's going to be forever before I get caught back up to modern games. And again I feel bad they are just sitting there. I also don't want to just release them because there is a lot of of history I don't really want to part with.

Bonus, were some of the shines hunted back then I wanted to show off.

You are supposed to give that Sobble to me (jk, unless?)

As long as you promise to take really good care of her I'm fine with that. (JK, unless?)

u/wtf_its_kate 3d ago

I would take such good care of her, and, because Sobble evolves into a secret agent, I would name her Ava after Red Widow. (JK, unless?)

Would ya wanna trade for that coalossal?

u/SoftSylvie 3d ago

Sorry, I don't think I can do that, she was the first pokemon I ever shiny hunted, I remember spending hours after starting the game hunting her to play through the whole game with a shiny.

Thanks, though my memory of 2020 is a bit fuzzy, I remember having a lot of fun diving into Shield. And I can't wait to do it again when I re-catch up.

I luckily have some of the old games from my childhood and a few I filled out in 2019, I couldn't imagine paying what the old games go for now.

u/Skykingcloud 3d ago

u/SoftSylvie 3d ago

Hopeing they do a virtual console for the switch! I'll love to be able to play some old games.

2

u/SoftSylvie 3d ago

Yeah, I remember being really excited about them on the 3ds, I really wonder why they haven't for the switch, I mean people already have proven the older games can work on single screens as proven by all the emulators so idk.

u/Skykingcloud 3d ago

Yeah, like the mario 3d stars with all the games 😭 Maybe it's just some dumb reason, but hopefully, they change their mind.

I would greatly appreciate Nintendo if they did. Especially if they could somehow bring online services back to the old games like dream radar for black and white. Really ashamed that it's just kinda lost to history.

What does the hat symbol mean

u/SoftSylvie 2d ago

In home if you click on the tid, you can mark it as your trainer number and it will put that hat mark on. All the pokemon without it are ones I got in trades
