Transferring Pokémon – Pokémon GO Guide

As you catch more Pokémon, you may transfer some of them to Professor Willow to free up your Pokémon storage. You’ll receive Candy in exchange for transferring a Pokémon, but be careful: you can’t get Pokémon back after you’ve transferred them. To transfer a Pokémon:

  • In Map View, tap the Main Menu button.
  • Tap the Pokémon button.
  • Select a Pokémon from your list.
  • Tap the Menu button and select Transfer.
  •  To transfer multiple Pokémon at once:

  • In Map View, tap the Main Menu button.
  • Tap the Pokémon button.
  • Locate a Pokémon you’d like to transfer. Tap and hold until the Pokémon is selected.
  • Tap any other Pokémon you’d like to transfer. 
  • To transfer the selected Pokémon, tap the Transfer button.
  •  Note: You cannot transfer your Buddy Pokémon, favorite Pokémon, or Pokémon currently defending to Gyms.
