"Centro Leaks, a prominent leak account, has also posted saying that a separate source tells them these RPGs won't be part of the Nintendo Switch Online subscription, and will instead be paid games on the eShop. They also claim they will be compatible with Pokémon Home, which allows you to transfer your Pokémon to a storage app that can be traded to other games in the series."

"and are easily the best versions of the first-generation games, but fans have gotten a bit weary of going back to the Kanto region after years of perceived favoritism for those original 151 Pokémon. So while there's plenty of excitement about the possibility, some folks are rolling their eyes at the thought that these games might be ported over while plenty of the other games continue missing from the Switch's line-up. Especially if they end up being pricey, standalone games."

Pokémon Day is two weeks away and rumors suggest new Generation X games and possible rereleases of Pokémon FireRed and another Game Boy Advance remake on Switch 2 on February 27. The Game Boy Advance titles originally launched in 2004 as remakes of the Game Boy RPGs that began the franchise. The rumor began with leaker Khu's tweet and was supported by Centro Leaks, which says a source claims the rereleases will be paid eShop titles, not part of Nintendo Switch Online, and will support transfers to Pokémon Home. Fan reaction is mixed, with excitement for Kanto entries and fatigue over repeated returns to the original 151 and concerns about missing ports and pricing.
