How to get Pokémon transporter without eShop?
To get Pokémon Transporter without eShop, you would have had to download it before the eShop shutdown, as it is no longer available for download, even for free, unless you had acquired it at least once before. The Pokémon Transporter is a useful tool that allows you to transfer your Pokémon from older games to newer ones, but its availability is now limited due to the eShop closure and the requirement for a Premium Plan subscription to Pokémon HOME for transfers from Pokémon Bank.
