It's been a lot of fun for us to watch your trades come through, and we really appreciate the helpful feedback that has allowed us to identify and fix a number of pesky bugs!
A few people have been messaging us with questions, so we thought it would be helpful to put together the ultimate guide to Swoosh. We've included a step-by-step tutorial, an explanation of the special features and answers to our most frequently asked questions.
Please take the time to read our guide to ensure you're getting the most out of Swoosh.

SWOOSH TUTORIAL
We’ve done our best to ensure that Swoosh is simple and easy to use!
STEP 1: Open Swoosh and tap the + button in the bottom right corner.
STEP 2: Create your Pokemon according to your exact specifications.
STEP 3: Tap the tick button in the bottom right corner.
STEP 4: Choose a nickname for your Pokemon, or leave it blank if you want to keep the original name. Tap ‘Save’.
STEP 5: Tap your Pokemon to select it, and then tap ‘Upload Now’. This will cost 100 coins.
STEP 6: Enter your in-game username (make sure it’s exactly correct, or we won’t be able to find you!) and tap through the instructions.
STEP 7: Wait for the link code to appear on your screen. Grab your Switch and go to Y-COMM.
STEP 8: On your Switch, press the + button to connect to the internet. Then select ‘Link Trade’, ‘Set Link Code’ and enter the link code that we give you.
STEP 9: We will connect and complete the trade!
We also have a simple tutorial video on YouTube - watch it here!
SPECIAL FEATURES
Shiny Pokemon
To make a shiny Pokemon, tap the star next to the Pokemon’s name.
Tap the star twice to make an ultra-shiny Pokemon, which are even rarer than regular shinies!
Please note that shiny Mew can only legally be Japanese, so it will come through with a Japanese name.
Gigantamax Pokemon
Only certain Pokemon can Gigantamax. If a Pokemon is able to Gigantamax, there will be lightning strikes next to its name in Swoosh. Tap those, and it will make it Gigantamax!
Please note that Melmetal cannot currently Gigantamax - once it can, we will update Swoosh!
Event Pokemon
You can create Event Pokemon with Swoosh! If you create it correctly, the Pokemon will have the correct stamps and ribbons once traded. We recommend uploading a PKX file if you need to create specific Event Pokemon - this feature will be available very soon.
Dynamax Level
Use the Dynamax bars at the bottom of the screen to customise the Dynamax level of your Pokemon. Simply tap them, and the white bars will show the level.
Please note that Legendary Pokemon cannot currently Dynamax.
Pokeball
Tap the Pokeball icon to select your Pokeball. If you select an illegal Pokeball, we will change it to a regular Pokeball.
Nickname
You can nickname your Pokemon if you wish! Once you have finished creating it, tap the tick button in the bottom right corner. This will bring up the option to give your Pokemon a nickname.
OT Name
Swoosh can learn your OT name and make it seem as though the Pokemon has been bred by you! You will need to complete a couple of trades with Swoosh first, then tap 'OT Name' and your OT name should appear. This is a Patreon-exclusive feature that we are really excited about!
PKX
This feature is not currently available, but is coming soon and will be Patreon exclusive! We will let you know when it is ready.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why did my trade time out?
If you made sure you were connected to the internet and entered the link code correctly, your trade still could have timed out if your internet connection was unstable or if you opened an in-game menu while waiting to connect. Please ensure that you are using a reliable wifi network and do not open any in-game menus while waiting for us, and make sure that your in-game username was typed into Swoosh correctly.
Otherwise, please message us at celadonswoosh@gmail.com and we will look into this for you.
Why didn’t you refund my coins?
If you didn’t connect to us for the trade, we will usually refund your coins. If it happens multiple times, we will not always be able to.
Why is my Pokemon different to what I ordered?
If there is anything illegal about your Pokemon, we will fix it for you before we trade. To view the changes, please tap the Pokemon’s name at the bottom of the screen - it should say ‘Fixed and Delivered.’ If this isn’t the case, please double-check that you didn’t accidentally miss anything when you were creating the Pokemon.
Otherwise, please message us at celadonswoosh@gmail.com and we will look into this for you.
Why don’t I have early access?
Early access to Swoosh is exclusively available to our Leader, Elite and Master tier supporters. If you are on the Trainer tier you will need to upgrade your membership in order to gain access to Swoosh.
If you are a Leader, Elite or Master tier supporter and you don’t have access to Swoosh, please complete the following steps:

Hey Nicholas! Please message us here on Patreon and we will help you!
Nicholas Gordon
I would like access to the app please.
At the moment we don't have that option available, however we may add it in the future! :)
Please message us and we will get you set up!
can you unlock it for me,
Are we able to make it so pokemon are countries
Once we have Swoosh working smoothly and feel super confident that we have the capacity for lots of users :) any bugs that you report to us are super helpful!
When do you guys think it will be good to be open for everyone
This is a good idea! Update your app and go to 'My Account', you'll find a new feature just for you. Be careful not to miss any trades! 😊
Can you put an option that enables us to turn off the audio. The beeping is kinda loud and I'd like to turn it off please
I'm so glad to hear! Thank YOU for supporting us!
Yea everything has been working great for me especially after the couple updates .thank you guys again!
Right now you would need to enter the exact moveset and details for the Event Pokemon. It will be much easier when the PKX option is ready! :)
They're not yet available in-game. Individual Pokemon pages in Serebii show when Hidden Abilities are not yet obtainable.
So how does it determine if a Pokémon we want is an event Pokémon?
Are we able to get starters with there hidden ability?
Yes, it's on our list! :)
Honey Violet
will you be updating to allow the creation of shiny gigantamax Eevee and Pikachu now that they are available in game?
Yay! We're so glad! :)
It’s been working great so far for me
