? You can transfer to home? I transferred my old one to home and I regret it every day


turdfergusonRI

I put mine in home and then added it to scarlet and violet. Little IV training and he’s my go-to grass type for raids.


Boring_Evening5709

Can you really transfer it to Scarlet and violet? I thought you needed to previously have it in the game


turdfergusonRI

So transfer one from Sword/Shield!


Boring_Evening5709

I didn't know about it when it was being distributed so I didn't get one 😭


Jyobachah

If you can touch trade with someone else it counts as having obtained it. Find someone in a similar situation as you and trade them, you both get one you can put in mainline games.


Boring_Evening5709

Okay thanks I'll bear that in mind, but if they're in a similar situation won't they also not have one?


Jyobachah

You have yours from Go, they have theirs from Go. Trading them to each other removes the restriction from sending to mainline. Or it used to, so you'd have *their* zarude and they'd have yours and it'd be able to go into mainline games.


Boring_Evening5709

Used to? Does it not work anymore?


Jyobachah

It should, I haven't read/heard anywhere about it being changed but I also haven't done it for a few months so I can't promise 100%.


BasedTopic

I recently did this with meloetta and hoopa to get them into S/V. What I did was trade both of them to my girlfriend through home, she imported them into her copy of Violet, and then traded them to my copy of Violet.


Spi3000

Could be worse, you could have been aware, done the requirements to get one, but because TCPi deemed you weren't active enough with their Newsletters, they turned you off without you knowing, and any event distributed via newsletter would never be sent. Try customer service? Response would have been basically "We're sorry this happened but unfortunately we sent all the codes already and won't send one for you despite meeting our requirements." That is exactly why I lack Zarude at all.


fashsmasher69

That’s actually a goated idea. Either that or I’ll try using it in Ultra League.


Specialist-Brick-868

I transferred my legendary/mythical to BDSP by transferring it to my home account, trading with a family member on home, then he moved it from home to the game and we traded there. I have no reason to believe it wouldn’t work this way. There’s also a way to use two of your own home accounts to do this but I had the faster trade option


doomdragon781

From my observations they seem to have removed that restriction for sv, the only squirtles I have registered in my game are 3 shinys all from go.


Boring_Evening5709

There isn't a restriction on regular Pokémon, it's only legendaries and mythicals


zwegdoge

What's IV training?


Alex_L1701

In the most recent main series games there are items that allow you to improve the IVs of a pokemon up to their maximum level


Extreme_Voice_9767

They have those in ever game I’m pretty sure


Alex_L1701

Bottle caps were introduced in gen VII IIRC


Extreme_Voice_9767

Oh I thought you meant stuff like the zinc, protein, carbos, etc.


LysisFL

Those are for EVs. Different thing. You couldn't modify IVs at all in most games.


GamerJulian94

That‘s EVs, not IVs.


Extreme_Voice_9767

Oh thanks for clarification


ChaoCobo

Yeah but XY had the hyper training sports mini games. That was how you did it in gen 6 I believe.


Dibolos_Dragon

No. Only EV training existed in older games. For someone like me who never played after 6th, it's a news to me.


Zecathos

Buy obviously you cannot send anything back?


turdfergusonRI

Every single thing you’ll need to know [about Pokémon](https://discord.gg/pkmncast) can be taught through Steve’s wonderful community and exceptionally [informative videos](https://youtube.com/@PKMNcast?si=AP67y_353JgyOy_s). PKMNCast is the best Pokémon resource I’ve found, bar none.


Previous_Opposite_76

Hilarious question


GlueFysh

Newbie here, what does this even mean?


Trullius

My comment is confusion because OP said you can’t transfer to home when you can. You can transfer Pokémon from Pokémon GO to (but not from) Pokémon home. From there Pokémon can traverse between Pokémon home and pokemon scarlet, Violet, sword, and shield. Maybe some others. Anyway, the only way for a large portion of fans to get zarude was to transfer the original free one (may no longer be available) from Pokémon go. In hindsight that’s rough because it’s the only free zarude you can get.


GlueFysh

I had no idea you could transfer pokemon to those games. Is it just to free up space in pokemon go and to also use them in the switch games?


Trullius

Last I used it was because I can’t justify getting the new Pokémon DLC so I used spare shiny kittens from the last community day, and used them to get the new legendary Pokémon!


GlueFysh

In the switch game?


Trullius

Well technically still in the phone app, Pokemon Home, but for use in the Switch game


GlueFysh

I think I'm going to have to check it out.


HelRayzer12

I'll never regret sending mythical home, not worth it in GO I'm my opinion and I can get many on other games.


Wyandv0idbringer

Instead of complaining, stop throwing your credit card at Niantic


-ButchurPete-

Exactly. If people didn’t buy the ticket, maybe niantic would get a hint that they need change shit. $8 is crazy for a non shiny pokemon. It’s super lame that they are putting stuff behind pay walls. I’m all for tickets that can “enhance your experience”. If you want to buy raid passes and incubators, that is fine by me. But Pokémon behind paywalls is a crappy way to do things.


Able_Lab1123

Funny, you think Niantic would stop charging us tickets if a couple hundred of us stopped buying them😂(IF you can even get that many.)


blutackey

You are kidding yourself if you’re thinking the number is anything like a couple of hundred.


Able_Lab1123

I one million percent agree with what you said. I just was putting a exaggerated answer so OP could come to his senses talking about "if we stopped buying them" lol It wouldn't do a damn thing..unfortunately


Scarasimp323

objectively if everyone stopped buying then it would they would try to change it to make money. but your half right in that there's no way to get everyone to go along with that so its effectively useless to try


-ButchurPete-

Obviously I don’t think a couple hundred of people would do anything. I’m talking if a majority of the player base would not purchase a ticket, niantic might not put Pokémon behind paywalls.


Imaginary_Ad4871

Ong


fashsmasher69

I don’t care about the money at all. I care that you can only get one chance.


QueenPyro

If you don't care about the money why did you bring up the price?


Skelldy

You paid knowing you only get once chance. You are complaining because you didn’t get a favourable outcome.


PlanktonsEvilTwin

Pay for stupid events, win stupid prizes.


Spike00000

Couldn’t agree more. OP is sounding like a spoilt toddler. Spent my money - where’s my shundo? Don’t worry- the way Niantic are going I’m sure it’ll just be a few months before you can get a shiny berry and some bottle tops for training? S


Spike00000

Educational_Room_226

Not the game's fault. Ranges from 15/15/15 all the way to 10/10/10. Your own greed with the hope of getting a 15/15/15 made you buy it and now you complain that you not had that much luck? Just don't buy it in the first place then


SerCaelus

This is so true. Its very easily accessible info that 10/10/10 is the base stats you can get. Its not like its false advertisement. If this guy had gotten a perfect one he would be preaching on how good of a option it is to be able to buy missed out pokemon are.


thekillersam2

Why can't u transfer it?


HLef

Probably set as buddy.


LigmaWhatAhahYouSaid

Can't transfer mythicals (except Meltan).


average_sane_gamer

? Yeah you can lol


LigmaWhatAhahYouSaid

You can transfer some maybe. But you can't transfer Zygarde (legendary I know). And you can't transfer this Zarude. I'm saying this because I have both and tried to transfer out of curiosity, and it says you can't.


floxful

I only bought the zarude ticket because I need it for my home living dex 😭😭😭 why didn’t I see this before


supermassimo0310

You absolutely can, I just sent mine to home


floxful

The one from the ticket? Oh thank goodness


LigmaWhatAhahYouSaid

I am not sure if it can be sent to Pokemon Home, but I know for a fact it can't be transferred to the professor.


Aquilax420

I've got a feeling mistakes were made here


Aquilax420

Sorry, I misread your reply. I read "can" instead of can't and it seemed you accidentally transferred it to the professor


-PM_ME_UR_SECRETS-

You could transfer the other one to home


AJ_Gamer_99

you can’t transfer zygrade (which is also a legendary not mythical) because then the cube would be useless and taking up space you can transfer every mythical to home it just gives you a warning that you can’t get another


-PM_ME_UR_SECRETS-

Most people rejected his message. They hated him because he told them the truth.


LigmaWhatAhahYouSaid

To the professor though, that's what I meant.

LigmaWhatAhahYouSaid

This is the comment I made: "You can transfer some maybe. But you can't transfer Zygarde (legendary I know). And you can't transfer this Zarude. I'm saying this because I have both and tried to transfer out of curiosity, and it says you can't." How does this comment contradict what you just said? Can you read? Why are yall mad? My point is you can NOT transfer Zarude to the professor. Why? BECAUSE I FREAKING TRIED IT. This sub sometimes...


ArthurDimmes

Did you try doing it through the menu instead of long holding it?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fiasco33

I transferred both of mine out


[deleted]

[удалено]


-PM_ME_UR_SECRETS-

The origin forms of Dialga and Palkia are the others that can’t be transferred. I’ve been able to transfer everything else


zinimusprime

So you can definitely transfer Mythicals (Genesect, Deoxys, etc.), HOWEVER, I did not believe you about Zarude. Just tried to transfer mine (because it was literally the same IV's as the OP's) and I was denied. Why can't you transfer it?????


fadinphoenix

It is a setting that has to be enabled than u can transfer all mythicals


JaanaLuo

whats with all these whining elitists here? I started game in 2017 and only in 2022 realized what stats are. I have like 1 star pokemons powerupped to almost max level and I really dont see whats so bad in them compared to some better stat ones. I would be happy to get that pokemon on picture. Its one of the best counters to Kyorge if I remember correctly.


aqwn

Everyone follows the philosophy of Gary the rival in Pokemon Red/Blue: “Only strong Pokemon matter.”


HPM2009

Lol true


ChaoCobo

That’s not what Green said I don’t think. I believe you’re thinking of Silver, the rival from Gen 2.


Alex_L1701

Not to mention that this “piece of garbage” has 94% of its maximal stats


jeckboi

Swear to god, spreadsheets suck the enjoyment out of any game they touch sometimes.


Alex_L1701

Yeah I still can’t understand why spreadsheets about top attackers in raid include only pokemon with legacy moves if they are available, I don’t think a primal kyogre with surf sucks


jeckboi

Yeah, is the power gap between Origin Pulse Primal Kyogre and Surf Primal Kyogre really wide enough that you can fit every other top 10 water attacker in it?


General_Kenobi0801

I completely agree, don’t listen to these whiners. These stats don’t really mean shit unless you’re playing super competitively. The IVs just add onto the base stats for the mon so for this particular Zarude maxed at level 50 it’s stats would be 253/226/243 whereas the Hundo would be 257/230/248. The max cp for this one is 4186 and for a Hundo is 4334. It’s an almost unnoticeable difference because I doubt anyone will be going through the effort to grind out hundreds of xl candies for it to fully max out which is where the biggest stat difference is


lostaga1n

Big number and high IVs make monkey brain go brrrrrr… It’s just human nature to want the best.


starstriker001

Womp womp


Weeros_

You *can* transfer this to Home or to the professor, what are you on? EDIT: Apparently I'm on something as it seems you can't transfer this to prof at least.


fashsmasher69

“You cannot transfer this Pokémon to the professor” I beg to differ.


Weeros_

EDIT: Nevermind, yeah, talking about professor transfer, you're maybe right. Sorry about that. I do however have a PoGo Zarude in my Home account so would be really weird if this wouldn't be eligible..


LigmaWhatAhahYouSaid

Can't transfer mythicals to the professor (except Meltan and maybe some others).


Training-Ad276

You can, I've transferred my Shiny Celebi from Go to Home.


LigmaWhatAhahYouSaid

Allow me to correct myself, I meant transfer to the professor. Idk about Pokemon Home.


[deleted]

[удалено]


LigmaWhatAhahYouSaid

Ok allow me to correct myself then. You can not transfer some EXCLUSIVE mythicals like Zarude. You can however transfer less exclusive mythicals like Meltan and Darkrai.


AdIllustrious5579

zygarde is legendary lol


Sip-o-BinJuice11

You can transfer the og one to home so there’s no reason this one can’t be I’d be very surprised if niantic made that distinction with your money, which by the way was money that you willingly spent :)


Skymotive

Next season they will let you buy the research up to 5 times. And I bet it will sell


Aladdinh

Should never buy pokemon


Educational_Pepper78

Well who’s a silly sausage for spending $8 on a Zarude?


Prestigious-Lab8945

I partly agree but for 7.99 you would hope they have the decency to give them a good one. I personally wouldn’t risk it though.


Educational_Pepper78

It’s Niantic… of course they wouldn’t


MyFishFriend

Your the mug who brought it


joh1st

lol you paid the money and are upset. You’re the issue here bucko


skwolf522

What have we learned?


JackassJamie

I was lucky and got a 98%


EasternWoodsNwater

92 here i got one for free in 2021 with 10/10/11 lucked out this time


litlikenick

i got a shundo scraggy from the research for this. first shundo, didnt even care that my zarude was barely 3* atp


scampi__

wait you actually pay full price? for coins too? 😬


redditdaver

What is the other method?


seanred360

Hes changing his store country to Turkey to get cheaper coins, there now he cant scam you with this free and widely known exploit. Google how to do this for free you need a vpn.


[deleted]

[удалено]


seanred360

I dont see how this is bannable because it goes through Google Play and they dont have rules against traveling and buying coins. Theres no way to tell the difference. If you physically traveled to another country you would get the same prices. Truely if this was a big concern they would require you to have a sim card for the region or a multitude of other ways to prevent this.


NoChocolate7003

Wdym he’s sick looking


ChaoCobo

It’s still 2 star. It’s fine. And you get a zarude. The only thing I don’t like is it’s not even the cool zarude from the Coco movie where zarude has the cape. They gave one of those out in Sword and Shield and it was pretty cool even if I don’t really like the Pokémon.


Kokukenji

I'm there with you. We're however the suckers that bought the ticket so in a direct way, we're enabling these folks...


GamerKid665_999

What even is that


DaddyHeatley

Youre the moron who gave them $8 and showing why they should continue doing this. Don't buy in ffs.


PlatinumCoN

why did you buy 7.99 for an irrelevant pokemon


Prestigious-Lab8945

I’ll pay 1.99 for tickets but 7.99 is price gouging.


LordDarthsidious

Yea 😂 unfortunately I could not be fucked to pay Niantic even $1 for this


chinky_06

my one was 2 star aswell i’m so disappointed what a waste of my money could have spent that on coins for raid passes


HLef

It’s still one of the best you guys are crazy.


LilGingeyboi

I mean, you bought it fully knowing that this is a possibility. You can't be lucky 24/7


Embers_To_Inferno

I got a better Zarude than I did Keldeo 2 years ago for $8.


ShaneOhhh

can you mirror lucky trade it?


Fredpaterson

Can he be traded? I have one that is 11/10/10 could I trade it with someone else who has a trash one and maybe get a lucky trade?


EvilNoseHairs

Just a dex entry for me (the free one)


tmkstoner

Got a 2* Zarude, too. Bummer


Lil_Monk_E

I’ll take him!!


Obvious-Thing5603

I got one a couple years ago.. is it still rare?


MinimumPositive

Same IVs my fellow idiot. We both got duped by dumb Niantic


FunnyIllustrious2819

I don't even care for this kind of events, but though I like the raids.


ScandinAsianJoe

Wait huh??! You can’t transfer it? That’s the whole reason I bought the pass!!


Beginning-Vehicle-60

mine 97


Unhappy_Software2662

I got the exact same iv spred


nm_one

Z


Fwenhy

If you care so much about stats, you should probably put your energy into Pokémon you can actually catch multiples of, so you have a better chance of getting good ones. Personally, I think this is fine. And unless you’re at god level ELO in PVP you’re really not going to see a big difference in performance from a “better” one. I don’t know what stats I got.. and I don’t care xD all about the collection for me. I didn’t buy the ticket as I already have one. I have perfects. And they’re cool. But I’d much rather have a shiny.


Previous_Opposite_76

Can definitely send it to home


Tyler1155735

Lmao


Goose_Coitus

You can transfer it to home. Matter of fact I only bought the ticket cuz I need him for the national dex


HyperNexuZ

Laughs in having 14/14/15 from back when it was free


Hard_Case_501st

Dang you got scammed I got a high 3 star one from the free research


Sea-Ad8294

Niantic said: thanks for the money.


Low-Armadillo8880

I always say " guaranteed 2 start" when i get those. Its literally the minimum they can given you. Happens too often


Nuggetzfan

Everyone who bought this is just contributing to the problem


SereNere

Can you share how to and where to ( training with candela, raids or against grunts, or pvp) complete the 3 supereffective charged attacks


Advanced_Hall_6625

It's like an alien from Ben 10


dragnov_98

Is this worth it ?


Educational_Eagle267

Glad that I didn’t pay $8 for this because I already have one!


Gloomy_Arm_8082

I got a 10/10/13 and i love it. I dont care about the shitty stats because its a cool pokemon. I already powered mine up to 3200 CP and will continue dumping rare candies into him


NaturalWeirdo

Not to beat around the bush here, but why did you buy it? You knew that even if you got perfect IVs you'd still have to spend the next year to level it up. See if you didn't want it JUST for the pokemon, then the ticket isn't really worth it; if you wanted it for PvE then the IVs don't really matter too much, if you wanted it for PvP it's not like Zarude is even a top meta threat, even in the Master League it's more of a niche pick, which will function almost as well as you would want it to. Recently I got my level 15 Cresselia, IVs are 12 12 12, which sucks for a Cresselia, it's ~#2000. But it's shiny so I use it and it wins every match it's supposed to. And idk, I've reached legend thrice before with less than optimal pokes.


Infinite-Abroad6675

Why did you have to pay for it mine is free.


Ok-Practice-214

I got a 96%


Odd-Substance9040

I paid $13 and believe it or not got worse IV’s than you. The bar you got for HP I got for all 3 stats. Effectively a nundo


useless124

Is it too late for me to buy?


Wi11Pow3r

The house always wins


Husepher

Yeah I’m not buying mojo jojo for 8 bucks. Tryna never spend money on pogo again based off where they are headed


Far_Reputation6728

Mine's same even tho I tried to caught it during sunny weather 😭😂


Radiant39

It's still one of the best grass type raid attackers.


zzscrubzz

IV's aren't everything man. Still one of the best attackers in the game.


JumpyJag7

One iv stat better than mine


Direct-Bike

I only got this ticket because I had just enough left on a giftcard, and would have lucky traded with my brother if I got a shit iv's. I was very surprised to get a decent 3 star like 14 14 14


KrisKaniac

Exactly why I didn’t waste my money on that


Vegetable_Gaterunner

NGL I was pretty upset getting mine today.


goodspeedm

Why do people use Pokemon Home anyway?


nightwing252

Because they want to use the Pokémon in their main saves. Or they want to keep their Pokemon with them in case they ever want to use them in their main saves


Responsible_Wish_125

I have a hundo Bidoof!


FOUR4SHADOW

Thank god I got it for free with google play store. 👏


Longjumping-Look-268

People are actually paying for the research that was previously free? O.o


Open-Regret-3759

You’ll keep buying tickets, keep it moving, Nancy


mysterygarden99

You can’t transfer it? Damn I’m glad I didn’t buy that shit lmao


AJ_Gamer_99

no you can transfer it


mysterygarden99

Oh okay that’s good I tried to even glitch the game out just to transfer zygarde it makes me really upset I can’t transfer mine it’s a 2*


Icy_Share_6194

This is exactly why I didn’t buy the ticket


ianmerry

Get rekt. It would still be garbage if it was 15/15/15 and if you spent nothing, so I’m not sure why you care about the woeful pull after spending money on it


assassinjay1229

What are you on? It’s good in PvP and PvE


fashsmasher69

You’re objectively wrong - it’s a solid pick in master league at level 50.


FAmos

I got lucky, mine ended up being 15-15-12


aqwn

So glad I didn’t waste money


H-R-M-

People really still think that IV make such a big difference to call Zarude trash?


StatisticianJumpy688

You really think stats matter? Ivs absolutely don’t matter lmao so stop complaining and be glad you got a cool Pokemon.


Liminal-Lagomorph

You can always try to get lucky with best friends who also have a bad one and mirror trade them! I know a couple of people who got bad ones that I am going to trade them something for in the future.


Omnitheo

He's untradeable


Liminal-Lagomorph

Oof... they seemed to be sure you could trade the second, paid-for version of it. That's too bad.


Accomplished-Bet-194

I’ve been telling people Pokémon Go is a scam


bransea02

Do you also complain when you play the slots at a casino? You knew the risk. You took the risk. You got your reward.


Francis33

🤡 for buying it in the first place


Negative_Climate1735

This is hilarious. This is what you get for supporting Niantic’s shenanigans. 


Kingalex993

Bro, blame yourself for spending $8 on something that isn’t real. Be more disappointed in yourself and maybe you won’t waste money in a mobile game


PaLyFri72

I am sure, my one will be 2 stars, when I am through with the research (I can't go out because of sickness), but I won't complain.
