The entire point of Pokémon is to build bonds and friendships with your team of colorful creatures you battle with and capture on your adventures through the lands. By naming them, fighting side by side, and watching them evolve, these bonds will start to grow whether you know it or not.

That makes it that much harder to let your trusty companions go whenever a new Pokémon title is released. However, Game Freak realized this problem and worked to create a solution. This led to the creation of Pokémon Home.

Pokémon Home is a cloud storage app designed specifically for moving Pokémon from one game to the next, replacing the old system called the Pokémon Bank. By connecting to the app, you can move your Pokémon from any compatible game, now including Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, forward into future titles.

This feature wasn't available at launch, so some newer players may not know how it works. If you want to make sure you can take your favorite team into future Pokémon titles easily, here's how to transfer Pokémon from Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl into Pokémon Home.

How to transfer Pokémon from Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl into Pokémon Home

With the latest update to the Pokémon Home app, you will be able to now transfer Pokémon from Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl as well as Pokémon Legends: Arceus into all games that support the app. Here's how to do it.

Step 1: Download the Pokémon Home app on your Nintendo Switch.

Step 2: Open the app and choose the Pokémon option.

Step 3: The app will access all the Pokémon save data on your Switch. Select your save data from Pokémon Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl.

Step 4: Choose which Pokémon you want to deposit into Pokémon Home or which Pokémon in Home you want to take out.

Rewards for using Pokémon Home

As a bit of a thank you for using Pokémon Home, anyone who utilizes this app to transfer Pokémon from Pokémon Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl into Home will be rewarded with a few free Pokémon with maximum effort levels. These include:

  • Turtwig
  • Chimchar
  • Piplup
  • Rowlet
  • Cyndaquil
  • Oshwatt

Bear in mind that any Pokémon you move into a game where they didn't normally appear may cause their levels and moves to alter slightly. Don't panic, though, because once you bring them back to a game they do naturally exist in, they will be exactly the same as they were.

How to evolve Duraludon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk
A duraladon about to evolve in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

The Pokémon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk DLC isn't holding back on adding some new monsters to the mix -- or at the very least, new forms of existing ones. As seasoned trainers will know, not all evolutions come naturally, so to speak. This is true for Duraludon, who at first had no evolutions at all, but can now transform into the bridge-like form called Archaludon. None of your usual evolution tricks will work here, and you instead need to take advantage of a new item added in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet The Indigo Disk.

To give your towering dragon a new form, here's how you can evolve Duraludon.

How to start the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Indigo Disk DLC
Cyrano inviting the player to blueberry academy.

The final piece of DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet has launched and will add the final batch of monsters to the game alongside its story content. While there are a limited number of brand new Pokémon, the returning cast, including every previous starter, is enough to get any veteran trainer interested in diving into the new content. The only issue is that this DLC asks quite a bit of you before letting you access it, so we'll make sure you know all the prerequisites before you can attend Blueberry Academy in the Indigo Disk DLC.
How to access the Indigo Disk DLC

If you were hoping to be able to start a new game and go straight to the DLC to take on the game with your favorite started, you will unfortunately be disappointed. Not only do you have to beat the base game's main campaign, up to and including The Way Home. That means beating the Elite Four and the post-game Area Zero content that concludes with you battling your professor in the Great Crater.

How to start The Teal Mask DLC in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

The first of two announced DLC expansions for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet has hit, called The Teal Mask. Both DLCs will introduce new places, items, moves, and, most importantly, Pokémon to catch, train, and befriend. This initial adventure will take your trainer to the Land of Kitakami, but excited trainers might be at a loss for how to actually access the new area and content. Because it's integrated directly into the main game, and not an option you can select from the menu, you will need to know how to reach the DLC. This won't take long, so here's how to access The Teal Mask in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet so you can continue your Pokémon journey.

After purchasing and installing the DLC for your specific version of Pokémon Scarlet or Violet, either load up your save or start a new game. You will need to either play up through, or have a save already past, The First Day of School chapter. Once you are past that point, you will automatically get a call from Jacq telling you about an annual trip to Kitakami that you, as it just so happens, will be chosen to attend.
