Pokémon HOME
With the new Pokémon GO event which adds Furfrou and its forms, the forms of Furfrou can now finally be obtained in Pokémon HOME. Previously, when put into Pokémon Bank from Pokémon X, Y, Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire, Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon, the Furfrou would revert into its Natural Trim next time you load the game. With Pokémon GO, however, you can obtain these forms and store them in Pokémon HOME. At present there's no indication as to whether or not they will revert over time in Pokémon HOME but we'll keep investigating
