Unlock Rare Items with Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Home Auctions

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet fans can now transfer their Pokemon into the game using Pokemon Home. In addition, in-game auctions are offering rare items based on acquired Pokemon. Fans have been eagerly awaiting this feature, which allows players to bring older Pokemon to the Paldea region after more than six months since the game's release. While transferring Pokemon from older titles is not a new concept, the process has evolved significantly with the introduction of Pokemon Home. This paid service enables fans to transfer their favorite Pokemon between Nintendo Switch titles and provides a cloud-based space to store up to 6,000 Pokemon. Its predecessor, Pokemon Bank, was a similar service available on the 3DS, which is now no longer accessible to fans due to the termination of the Nintendo eShop service for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS.

Players who have a soft spot for some of the older Pokemon games can now transfer their old friends from the 3DS to the Switch, making it a crucial feature despite the introduction of new Pokemon in recent Switch-exclusive titles. Fans of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have noticed that certain rare items, such as the Adamant Crystal and Lustrous Globe, which allow the Legendary Pokemon Dialga and Palkia to transform into their Origin forms, are now being sold in the game's auctions following the games' recent connectivity with Pokemon Home. The Porto Marinada auction offers the Lustrous Globe, as shown in a post on Reddit by the user reverse_typewriter. Other items that benefit many other Legendary Pokemon obtainable in recent games are also available via this auction, although fans should note that auctions only offer certain items if the associated Legendaries are present in their PC. With Pokemon Home version 3.0.0 now supporting Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, fans can bring their Hisuian Pokemon to a more modern time. However, players can still use Pokemon Home to return these Pokemon to their original games if they wish.

Some Pokemon species are not available in the Gen 9 games due to them not being coded into the modern titles, despite the fact that most species can be moved to Scarlet and Violet without any problems. The removal of the National Pokedex has been a topic of criticism from the community since Pokemon Sword and Shield, but there is still optimism among players that their beloved Pokemon will make a comeback in the future. Nintendo Switch users can play Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
