Sadly, some fan-favorite Pokemon such as Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Chimchar are not eligible to come to the Paldea region at the time of writing. While the transfer list is limited to the aforementioned Pokemon inPokemon Homeversion 3.0,The Hidden Treasure of Area ZeroDLCwill add more Pokemon from previous generations toPokemon Scarlet and Violetfor trainers to catch in the wild upon release. Whether this means the list of transferrable Pokemon fromPokemon Homewill change in response or not remains to be seen.
