A real task from the Rescue Plan
Every recommendation in RescueMon comes from a documented, sourced rescue rule — never a guess. Here's one real example:
Secure a Spinda in Pokémon HOME via Pokémon Bank
Spinda
A Spinda transferred from Pokémon Bank to Pokémon HOME cannot be moved to Pokémon Brilliant Diamond or Pokémon Shining Pearl. Conversely, a Spinda caught in those games cannot be deposited in Pokémon HOME.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is ending?
Pokémon Bank service ends on February 26, 2027 at 03:00 UTC. After that date, transferring Pokémon from Pokémon Bank to Pokémon HOME is no longer possible.
Why should I act now?
Once Pokémon Bank closes, some transfer paths end permanently — there is no way to move certain Pokémon into Pokémon HOME afterward. Checking now, while Bank access still works, is the only way to find out what's affected.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. RescueMon has no backend or account system. Your answers and task progress are saved only in this browser's local storage and are never sent anywhere.
Can I continue later?
Yes. Your progress is saved automatically on this device, so you can close the tab and come back anytime before the shutdown.
Is RescueMon free?
Yes. RescueMon is free to use, with no account or subscription required.
