As a dedicated Pokémon trainer, I have traveled across different regions, from Unova’s lively cities to Johto’s traditional landscapes.
However, the untamed wilderness of the Hisui region in Pokémon Legends: Arceus is incomparable. The excitement of encountering Pokémon in their natural habitats, observing their behaviors, and adding them to my Pokédex is an unparalleled experience.
This article will discuss transferring Pokémon to Legends: Arceus, including which Pokémon can be transferred and how to do it.
Let’s get started!
What Pokemon can you transfer to Legends Arceus?
In Pokémon Legends🎮: Arceus, players can transfer various Pokémon from previous games through Pokémon Home.

However, not all Pokémon are transferable into Legends Arceus.
Those transferable include Pikachu, Raichu, Snorlax, and more. It’s important to remember that this information may change over time, so staying updated through the official Pokémon website or reliable Pokémon communities is recommended.

Can you transfer a Pokemon from older generations into Arceus?
If you wish to transfer your Pokémon from older games into Arceus, it is possible, but with a condition. Your Pokémon must match the Pokedex of the Hisui region.
You can use Pokemon Home, a subscription service for storing and transferring Pokémon between different games to accomplish this.
You can transfer your older generation Pokemon to Pokemon Home with a subscription fee. From there, you can transfer them to Legends Arceus.
However, not all Pokémon are eligible for transfer due to the game’s setting and narrative limitations🙂.
How to transfer Pokemon to Legends Arceus
To move your Pokémon to Pokémon Legends: Arceus, you’ll rely on Pokémon Home. The process is straightforward🥰:
- If you don’t have Pokémon Home, download it from the Nintendo eShop.
- Make sure that your Pokémon Legends: Arceus game is up-to-date.
- Open Pokémon Home and login to your account.
- Tap the Pokémon button and link your Pokémon Home account to your Nintendo Account.
- A list of games on your Switch will appear. Select Pokémon Legends: Arceus.
- Two boxes will appear, one for Pokémon Home and one for Pokémon Legends Arceus. Here, you can shift Pokémon between them.

If your Pokémon Home boxes are empty, transfer Pokémon from other games into Pokémon Home boxes first, then transfer them to Legends Arceus.
Can Pokemon Transferred to Scarlet and Violet go back to Legends?
When transferring Pokémon from Pokémon HOME to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, it’s important to know the specific rules for each game.
While some transfers are irreversible due to unique stat mechanics, others are more flexible. It’s recommended to check the official guidelines from Pokémon Home or Pokémon Scarlet and Violet for the latest information on transfer rules.
While Hisui-exclusives in Legends: Arceus can be transferred to Paldea in Scarlet/Violet, it’s unclear if they can be transferred back to Legends: Arceus😉.
