In Let’s go Pikachu can I move my mew to a new game? [duplicate]

I want to make a new game on Let’s Go that only has Psychic Pokémon in my party. I already got my mew out from the pokeball plus though. Is it possible to put mew into Pokémon home, make a new game of Let’s Go on another Nintendo User account on my Switch and then move mew to that new game? I don’t want to buy another pokeball plus to get mew into the new game....

Best Answer

Yes, you are able to move your Mew into your Pokemon Home storage and swap it between different accounts. This is mentioned on Nintendo Support.

When using Pokémon HOME, players can choose to deposit and withdraw Pokémon to and from any compatible save data on that Nintendo Switch system. That means that other players with Pokémon HOME can access Pokémon from your games on Nintendo Switch

This Youtube tutorial does a good job explaining how to do this. Below is a summary:

Open the Pokemon Home app
Choose the profile¹ you want to transfer the Mew from
Select "Let's Go" and move Mew into your Home Storage; save and exit
Return to the main page
Choose the profile you want to transfer the Mew to
Select "Let's Go" and move Mew into the Let's Go storage; save and exit

Note: If your secondary account does not have a premium subscription, you can only access the first box within Pokemon Home. Assuming your primary account has a premium subscription and you place Mew into a box that's not the first one, you will not be able to access it.

Can you transfer Mew to home?

For example, Mew and other Mythicals that you can only get one of in Pok\xe9mon GO are transferrable to HOME. Don't be that one sad story of someone who did this by mistake and now has no Mew in GO. Finally, your Mystery Box will automatically come to you when you transfer a species over.

How do I transfer Mew?

So long as you caught a Mew in one of those games, you can transfer it to your Pok\xe9mon Bank account. From there, you'll need to log into Bank to start the transfer to Home. You'll also need to confirm the transfer by logging into Bank from your 3DS and verify the key.
