A Pokemon's viability in battle shouldn't be the deciding factor on whether or not it's worth transferring them, the novelty of moving a particular Pokemon you had a good adventure with up from an old game to the modern system is inherently cool and worth preserving, and I think anyone who disagrees with that is a soulless bootlicker and they've yet to give me reason to think otherwise.
That being said, it fucking sucks that literally the only thing left to do with your Pokemon now is battle with them online, as we've lost every single non-battle related piece of gameplay, and even lost battle related ones with the total removal of facilities. There's straight up nothing to fucking do in these games anymore besides PvP, which is already dominated by the overtuned, busted Gen 9 Pokemon, and Raids, which barely work, are flooded with children running their Charizards and Clowncrocs and anything that's not Raidcat/Miraidon/Rape Ape is a waste of time anyway.
I'm gonna get my shiny Petlil and make it an H-Lilligant, and then do literally nothing else until the DLC drops.
Transferring is a worthwhile mechanic, but these games aren't worth transferring to. They're barren and empty and Home doesn't fix that.
