Will there be a PC version of Pokemon HOME?

It would be a great and more accessible way to sort out Pokemon storage without needing to use cumbersome touch controls of Phones, on top of controller controls of Switch family.

    I would like it to be as accessible as possible on as many platforms as possible. However, I suspect they might be concerned that a PC version might be too easily modified by your average user. Not that the smartphone version isn't open to that, nor the app on a modded Switch to someonewho knows what they're doing, but I suspect they think the PC is a particular weak spot.

    Hello @DefaultPerson, thank you for your suggestion for creating a PC port for Pokémon HOME. I will share your suggestion on this with the team!

    I think it could be possible to prevent the users tampering with authentication/online checks to ensure that the data lines up with the data that's being stored on the servers.

    Besides, I would imagine a PC version of HOME would be mostly for managing your Pokemon storage and performing trades with randoms/friends, especially when you have the convenience of desktop Discord and messaging apps.

    Thank you so much! I hope that we all get to see this being a possibility in near future.
