Cant move pokemon from pc to party.

[Alabamaboy]

So today I bought a pokemon to beat Kanto elite four but that was caught in Hoenn so I couldn't move it to my party and when I did this trade I didn't know this was a thing. So now I have a completely useless pokemon in my pc that I paid a lot for. Is there anything I can do?

 

Pokemon I bought is a level 100 Ludicolo

Hi @AlabamaBoy

 

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

I would like to inform you that when you start to play the story of a region, you will be able to use only the Pokémon native of that region, meanwhile all the one native of other regions will be locked in your pc until you have the 8th badge of the region you're playing. For what regard the Pokémon native of regions not unlocked yet, you will have to first to start/complete them.

Therefore, as you're still playing Kanto's story and you have not started yet Hoenn, you will be able to use only Kanto's Pokémon.

With that said, the Pokémon you have bought is native from Hoenn, a region that you have not played yet, and that means that you will be able it only when you will start the Hoenn Region.

 

Do note that we cannot move out the Pokémon from your PC as it is intended to have the Pokémon of the previous and the future regions stuck into your PC while playing a region and it would be unfair to the other players if we would move the pokemon from your pc to your party.

 

Please, let me know if something is unclear and if you have any further questions.

Have a wonderful day!
