Doesn't work for me. Connecting the Go account to the Scarlet game works instantly but actually doing a connection, the first option, just loads forever and nothing happens. Help?

I wouldn't mind being able to catch a roaming Gimmighoul to eventually send to Pokemon Scarlet. I will try this when I get home and see if I can get a postcard from a local pokestop.

I don't think I will try for the vivillon forms since trying to get postcards form around the world when I barely play Pokemon Go feels like too much work.
