Proper now, the precise record of Pokémon set to look in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet remains to be up within the air. The Pokémon specialists at Serebii report that Pokémon Dwelling, Nintendo’s cross-game Pokémon storage service, can solely facilitate transfers to and from Scarlet and Violet for Pokémon which might be already obtainable within the sport. The implication there may be that Pokémon Scarlet and Violet could not help you seize each single Pokémon from each single era.
If Pokémon Scarlet and Violet certainly restrict which Pokémon from prior video games you possibly can import, it is likely to be be harking back to the cacophonous “Dexit” controversy that marred the earlier mainline entries, Pokémon Sword and Defend–a minimum of for some followers. These video games, which got here out in 2019, didn’t embody each prior Pokémon from each prior era, that means some trainers who’ve caught with the collection for each iteration needed to go away behind groups they’ve curated for years (or many years, in some instances).
Representatives for Nintendo didn’t reply to a request for remark.
