Why can't I transfer Groudon in Pokémon GO? ›

This means you cannot just transfer your 20 extra Groudon from Pokémon Go to Scarlet and Violet, unless you transfer a Groudon from a different game first. (We tested this, as you can see in the lead image.) All the Pokémon from Scarlet and Violet can be moved to Home, but not necessarily to other games.

You can select up to 50 Pokémon at a time to transfer to your Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! or Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee! game. Only the Pokémon you've caught in Pokémon GO that were originally discovered in the Kanto region (as well as their Alolan variants) may be transferred.

No Pokémon GO Trade Backs

This, sadly, can mean that if someone accidentally trades away a beloved buddy, they cannot get it back as the trade cannot be undone or reversed.

Best answer

Just open your main menu with the 'X' button, head over to your 'Pokémon' section, select the Pokémon you wanna swap out from your battle team, and choose 'Move to Boxes' or swap it with another Pokémon in your party. It's just a few clicks away and your team will be all set for your next big adventure!

Trade Them or Turn Them into Candy

One quick solution for duplicate Pokemon is trading them with friends. Not only does this help you clear out your storage, but it's also a fun way to interact with fellow players. Another option is turning your duplicates into Candy by transferring them back to Professor Willow.
