Pokemon ScarletandVioletplayers can connect their accounts toPokemon Homein the new update version 3.0.0. Having the ability to connect allPokemongames toPokemon Homeis very important for players, as this acts as a safe place for their creatures, as well as allows them to move from game to game.
For example, suppose a player has some Pokemon on Sword and Shield or Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. In that case, they have the ability to connect it toPokemon Homeand be able to transfer some from there into games likeScarletandViolet. This is a cool feature that Nintendo has had for a while now, even giving people the choice to transfer over Pokemon fromPokemon Bank,which is on the 3DS.

How To Connect Scarlet/Violet to Pokemon Home
Players can connect theirPokemon Homeaccount toViolet and Scarlet, where they will actually receive a gift for doing so. When players transfer a Pokemon fromPokemon ScarletandVioletintoPokemon Homefor the very first time, players can receive one of the Paldean starter Pokemon for free. The selection is between Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly, each having Hidden Abilities as Mystery Gifts in the app version ofPokemon Home. They can then be transferred into players' games to be used for breeding or just having a fun time in Paldea.
It’s worth noting thatPokemon ScarletandPokemon Violetplayers will not be able to transfer Pokemon intoPokemon Homeuntil later this year. Initially, the patch was supposed to drop on May 24, butThe Pokemon Company made a mistake and informed fansthat the update would come later.
