Ever wondered how to shuffle your Pokemon collection in Pokemon GO? Swapping out your duplicates or less powerful creatures is a key part of the game. Let’s dive into the specifics of transferring Pokemon.

Transferring a Pokemon in Pokemon GO means sending a Pokemon from your collection back to Professor Willow. In return, you get goodies like Pokemon candies. But how exactly does one do this?

Steps to Transfer a Pokemon

To transfer a Pokemon, first, open your Pokemon GO app and navigate to your Pokemon collection. Find the creature you wish to transfer. It’s a tough choice, but sometimes necessary!

Next, tap on the Pokemon and look for the menu button (it looks like three horizontal lines or sometimes a button with more options). Tap on it, and you’ll see the option to transfer the Pokemon. Confirm your choice, and voila, Professor Willow has a new friend, and you’ve got some precious candy.
