Pokémon HOME version 4.1.0 adds FireRed and LeafGreen support
Pokémon HOME version 4.1.0 adds FireRed and LeafGreen support, raises Premium storage to 9,000 Pokémon, and drops 32-bit Android support.
The update raises the storage limit for Premium Plan users from 6,000 to 9,000 Pokémon. At the same time, Pokémon HOME is ending support for 32-bit Android devices.
The same update information also says Celebi can be unlocked by completing the Pokédex. Transfers from FireRed and LeafGreen to HOME are one-way only: once moved, Pokémon cannot be sent back to those games.
What happened
Pokémon HOME has been updated to version 4.1.0, bringing support for Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen. The notice lists Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android as the platforms where transfers through HOME are available. That brings the service in line with the older Kanto titles, which the report links to a Switch release. The update notes do not mention any extra steps beyond using HOME itself to make the transfer work.
For Premium Plan users, storage capacity increases to 9,000 Pokémon. The previous limit was 6,000 Pokémon, so this update represents a clear expansion of available storage. The change is specifically tied to the Premium Plan and is described in the patch notes as a numerical increase.
The same version also ends support for 32-bit Android devices. That means the update is not only adding new compatibility, but also phasing out an older Android variant. In addition, Celebi is mentioned in HOME as a reward for completing the Pokédex. In the supplied report, that is presented as a separate HOME reward, distinct from the FireRed and LeafGreen support.
Transfers from FireRed and LeafGreen remain one-way only. The text explicitly states that Pokémon moved to HOME cannot be sent back to those games. That is the only compatibility limitation specifically mentioned in the supplied information.

Background
Pokémon HOME is The Pokémon Company’s storage and transfer service for Pokémon on Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. The version 4.1.0 update expands compatibility to Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen, two older Kanto games that the report links to a Switch release. The supplied information lists Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android as the platforms where HOME supports this transfer.
The report also mentions an extra reward in HOME: Celebi can be obtained by completing the Pokédex. That detail is separate from the storage increase and from the end of 32-bit Android support. The text does not connect Celebi to a specific version of FireRed or LeafGreen, but to HOME’s Pokédex completion feature.
The storage change is concrete and numerical: Premium Plan users go from 6,000 to 9,000 Pokémon. That expands capacity by 3,000 slots. The update therefore combines three clear changes in one version: new game support, more storage for Premium users, and the removal of support for an older Android architecture.
The supplied sources leave a few details open. The exact date in August when support was announced is not given. The year of the February Nintendo Switch release is also missing from the text. It is likewise not specified whether the update rolled out worldwide at the same time or varied by region. What is clear is that transfers from FireRed and LeafGreen to HOME are described as one-way only, and that Pokémon moved over cannot be sent back to those games.
