I hear some of you complaining about having to pay for the old Pokemon returning, as well as new ones. I understand your complaints especially strongly because the lack of GTS in game is fucking awful and it really shouldn't be exclusively part of Home (if it even is in there). However, as somebody who knows a little bit about the Switch, I can help you out here. Did you know that Sword and Shield have a LAN mode? To enter LAN mode go into options menu and pres L + R + Left Stick. Now, what use does this have for you? There's a way to route LAN through your computer, so you can connect to people all over the world without paying for Nintendo online.

It works for everyone. This way, when the updates comes out you can actually trade for the Pokemon with the only minor pain being setting up the service. I imagine this can also be helpful for piratechads who want to distribute some Pokemon. Personally I wasn't even going to pirate the game until every Pokemon was in, and I'm going to more or less stick by that. However I feel the need to do my part here, for everyone who's got a complaint this should fix most of it.
