How to link Pokémon GO to Pokémon Home
The first thing you need to set up before you can transfer to and from Pokémon Home through Pokémon GO is to link the two accounts together. Currently this is limited to level 40 players only, but expect this to spill over to lower level trainers soon. When you're ready, just open Pokémon GO and tap the Poké Ball symbol, then select Settings. Near the Bottom is a new Pokémon Home option. Select this and sign in using your Nintendo Account and the two will be linked. You are now ready to start trading them.
How to transfer from Pokémon GO to Pokémon Home
Now that the two are linked, sending creatures from Pokémon GO to Pokémon Home is easy. It is managed in the same section of the Settings menu. Choose to send Pokémon home and the GO Transporter screen will appear. This shows you how much energy you have available. Simply scroll through your available Pokémon and choose the one you want to send home.
To complete the process, you must then open Pokémon Home and accept the transfer. And here's how to send to Pokémon Home from Pokémon GO. But you probably still have more questions, like how to get more carrier energy.
How to get more GO Trasporter energy
There are only two options for getting more power to do all of those GO to Home transfers. Carrier energy will be used with every Pokémon sent home, but will automatically recharge over time. However, if you don't have long to wait or are just impatient, you can pay 1000 coins to fill the meter from low to high and get another full transfer. But which of your vast collection should you avoid?
Which Pokémon can be sent from GO to Home
Almost all of your Pokémon can be sent from GO to Home, but some will be tweaked to make the change. Purified and Lucky Pokémon will lose this status, so you should probably avoid this. In addition, the following changes will be made to the transport process: Origin Giratina Form will be changed to Modified Form, Sunshine Cherrim will become Overcasy, and the different weather versions of Castform will become a standard form.
Can you transfer from GO to your home?
Currently, the process is just one way, sending Pokémon from GO to Home. However, that could always change down the road. Keep an eye out for updates, but don't expect changes anytime soon. This appears to be something that would cause huge problems with competitive PvP and the overall feel of Pokémon GO, so it might never get added.
