Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen Nintendo Switch connectivity with Pokemon Home confirmed

Today, it was announced that the new Nintendo Switch releases of Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen will support Pokemon Home connectivity.

There was previously confusion as to what was happening here. It was technically confirmed when Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen were announced last week, but that news was scrubbed by The Pokemon Company. It seems they were only waiting for the official Pokemon Day announcement.

Note that the Pokemon Home support for Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen won’t be happening immediately. This will be taking place at a later date.

When it’s live, players will be able to bring Pokemon obtained in other entries in the series on adventures with them. Additionally, Pokemon can be sent to Pokemon Champions.
