If—like me—you're trying to make a Living Dex, this is the way to store all of your Pokémon in one place. Besides that, I'm unsure of why anyone would deposit their little guys in here. In theory, it's cool to have a space to store all of your Pokémon across every generation (1–7 on a 3DS with Pokémon Bank and the rest on Switch), especially since that hasn't always been the case. Without the guarantee that players will be able to bring those Pokémon into future games, though, Pokémon JAIL feels like a more apt title.
 To rub salt in the wound, it's a pretty flimsy subscription service without much to it. PNGs instead of models for the Pokémon, limited information when it could have been more encyclopedic (like a Pokédex), and nothing to do on the side like breeding, EV training, Poké Pelago, etc... not that they really promised anything like that, but HOME feels like soulless software that could have been much more interesting.
