Here's everything you need to know about Pokemon HOME. This in-depth breakdown on the Nintendo Switch and mobile app explains what's possible on each version and explains how to use all the features. This includes transferring Pokemon between games, trade via Wonder Box, GTS, Friend Trade, and Room Trade, viewing the National Dex, earning rewards, customizing your profile, and much more.

Originally scheduled for February 23rd, 2020, Pokemon Asia Top League Kyoto 2020 has been officially cancelled by The Pokemon Company. Six countries across Asia were planned to compete in the Trading Card Game tournament, but due to the Coronavirus outbreak causing issues with travel, the event will have to postponed (hopefully not permanently).

Completing the National Dex has been the dream of many trainers since they were very young. The reward for completing such an honorable task through Pokemon Home might be something very special. Reports have been given from some dedicated Pokemon catchers that upon finishing the National Pokedex, they received an Original Color Magearna through the Mystery Gift menu. However, some have also received a regularly colored one for completing the dex, so speculation has been running wild for why this is happening. It is currently unknown why people are now in possession of the original color, and an official statement has yet to be given by Nintendo or The Pokemon Company. Could this be the intended reward? A glitch? We'll have to wait to find out exactly what is going on with this mysterious Mythical Pokemon.

Tickets for Sonic The Hedgehog are selling out FAST! According to Deadline, the film is estimated to have received a 3-day grossing of $53.99M and a 4-day of $64.3M. This gives our blue friend the record for best video game movie adaptation opening. For comparison, Warner Bros./Legendary Pictures' Detective Pikachu earned $58M at its debut in May 2019.

Paramount's estimates are slightly lower ($50M 3-day and $60M 4-day), but still takes the record over Pokemon either way.

Looks like the whole world is going to be finding out about the new Mythical Pokemon heading to Sword and Shield soon. The official Pokemon Twitter account shared the image above, and told everyone to stay tuned for more info. We should be hearing full details about this one in the near future.

A number of Pokemon GO fans were upset with how ticket pricing was handled for Liverpool's Pokémon Go Safari Zone event. Some players thought there were hidden service fees that shouldn't have been hidden at all, leading them to complain online, as well as contacting the UK Advertising Standards Authority. Niantic has now responded to the issue and fixed things up. You can see Niantic's statement on the error below.

"Previous advertising for Pokémon Gp Safari Zone Liverpool tickets didn't include the service fee and VAT costs. We're updating all ticket listings today. The ticket pricing is now listed as: '£21.60 for Early Access and £14.40 for General Admission. A £3.60 service fee will be added to each order (up to 4 tickets per order). The City Explorer Pass add-on is £9.60. All prices are inclusive of VAT.'"

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX is a remake of the very first Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games (and the demo has been out for a while now) but of course there's more to it than what we've seen so far. We went hands-on with a different story dungeon and some new features not shown in the demo or available in the originals.

Watch for short break-downs and gameplay clips of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX's Rescue Team Camp system, new Rare Qualities, the Pokemon recruiting mechanic, a short boss battle, and more—some of which is completely new to the remake.
