Seeing all the pokemon I collected since the early generations on my phone anywhere I go is something I dreamed of for a long time. This is brilliant! The only things that could be improved: 1) add an option in the GTS to show all pokemon are offering for a specific pokemon that you have 2) the notification you get in your "room" for getting an achievement only shows on the main screen. In the list of achievements it doesn't show which one you just got

It's nice to be able to use this app from phone or switch but certain functions seem to be locked to what device your using, probably to encourage more downloads of the app. Biggest complaint though is that after several generations were added since the app came out the storage has not seemed to increase from its original, even on the paid version.

While Pokémon HOME serves its purpose as a cross-generational Pokémon storage and transfer tool, its extremely small text and bright backgrounds, coupled with a dearth of accessibility options such as in-app zoom adjustment and a dark theme (which no app in 2025 should lack) make using this app far more difficult than it needs to be. I say this from a standard and a disabled user perspective (as I am vision impaired).
