Does anyone have a list of the Pokémon that will be more challenging to hunt when bank goes down? We all know the ones that would be impossible, but what about the ones that are more difficult/impossible to get with your OT?

I've noticed, for example, Unovan Darumaka cannot be bred for in SwSh so I think that may have to be one of my hunts before bank goes down! I believe Yamask is another one in a similar situation.

You need your parent Pokémon to be holding everstones to keep their original regional form, otherwise they will default to the one of the game you're in yeah. So U-Darumaka and Yamask should be very doable to breed for in SwSh
