Inheritance Capsule

Every pokemon of yours is born at level 1. That is good for the game, and it is painful the day you catch something excellent while sitting at level 90. The Inheritance Capsule is the honest way out: the time you invested in a pokemon is never lost, it is reallocated.

A pokemon you raised can be consumed to pass 60% of its experience to another one.

Who can donate

Condition	Detail
Bond 30% or more	About a day and a half of hunting with it. See Bond.
Raised by you	A bought or received pokemon is not fuel, even with a full Bond.
No trainer seal	Founder and Genesis companions and raid prizes do not donate.
Off the team	The donor has to be in the Box.

The receiver can be on the team or in the Box, and needs no Bond at all. Inheriting exists precisely to get someone new on their feet.

How much crosses over

60% of the donor's accumulated experience reaches the target.
The target never passes the donor's level. If it is already there, there is nothing to inherit.

The cost

Each transfer costs 1 Capsule plus Dust based on the receiver's rarity:

Receiver rarity	Dust
Common	300
Uncommon	450
Rare	600
Epic	900
Prismatic	1,200
Mythic	1,800
Astral	2,400
Divine	3,000

It charges for the receiver, not the donor: what you are buying is the push on that individual, and fast-forwarding an Astral is worth more than fast-forwarding a Common.

Where Capsules come from

They are scarce on purpose: this is the pacing valve, not the main road.

Source	How	When
League contracts	Field Routine (20,000 kills) and League Census (500 catches). Each pays one Capsule, once.	Unlock at trainer level 60
Arena shop	120 Arena Tokens	As soon as the Arena opens for you
Old box conversion	Trade in pokemon at level 40 or above that you do not intend to raise	One window per account, see below

The Memorial

Donating consumes the donor, but does not delete it. It leaves the Box and stays listed in the Memorial, with the level and the Bond it had. Nobody deletes a pokemon you hunted with for hours.

The receiver keeps a stamp saying that those levels came from an inheritance. That is what explains, months later, why it sits at level 60 with an almost empty Bond.

The conversion window

Players from before the "every pokemon of yours starts at level 1" rule have a box full of high-level pokemon that were bought or caught already grown. Those pokemon stopped being a path to anything. The conversion acknowledges that.

For 30 days, once per account, a high-level pokemon you do not intend to raise turns into Capsules, even if it was bought grown:

Pokemon level	Capsules
40 to 59	1
60 to 79	2
80 to 99	3
100	4

Below level 40 it gives nothing.
Pokemon you locked, or that carry a trainer seal, are excluded.
Converted pokemon also go to the Memorial.
The window only appears for accounts that had something the new rule devalued. A new account never gets it.

Once it closes, the normal rule is back: only what you raised can donate.
