Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Hit Pokémon HOME Next Week

The Pokémon Company's compatibility update linking Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen with Pokémon HOME arrives next week, following last month's announcement.

Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen will become compatible with Pokémon HOME next week, The Pokémon Company has confirmed. The update lets players move creatures from the Game Boy Advance titles into the cloud storage service.

The news follows last month's announcement, when The Pokémon Company said the two games would be linked with Pokémon HOME in October 2026. That window is now closing to a matter of days.

FireRed and LeafGreen originally launched on the Game Boy Advance as enhanced remakes of the first-generation Pokémon games. Bringing them into Pokémon HOME extends the storage service's reach further back into the series' history.

Nintendo Life reported the compatibility timing. Players who have kept saves from the GBA era will soon have a route to carry those Pokémon forward.
