Transfer shiny Pokemon
One of the more frequently-asked questions already is whether the shiny Pikachu or shiny Eevee can be transferred from Pokemon Let’s Go to Pokemon Go.
Unfortunately, transferring between these two games is a one way street whereby Pokemon can only be transferred from Pokemon Go to Pokemon Let’s Go. This means you won’t be able to use these shiny Pokemon on Pokemon Go.
Moreover, Pokemon transferred from Go to Let’s Go can only be transferred once, therefore they can’t be transferred back.
