Err, well, I don’t know a —— about Pokemon 😇, only went through some fandom , I don’t know where☺️ and came across a Pokemon whose home is a lighthouse, is likely named sparkle. The light in a lighthouse goes round and round, sparkle/glitter and it’s by the sea shining into infinity (over the horizon). So I thought of a lighthouse.

Could it have something to do with Shiny Meloetta, that you earn from Pokémon Home if you complete all the pokedexes for Scarlet/Violet?
Musical Pokémon + Home led me here, but I don’t know any further specifics. 😅

Ooh, Meloetta might be a good lead!
OKAY so before those monsters so rudely marched in, I was plugging in the “home” towns that the games start in - and I was doing it like “Pallet” as a single guess and then “Pallet Town” as another.
I got as far as “New Bark” (as the list displays) - so if I don’t come back once the monsters clear out, someone can pick that up again?
EDIT: Also someone try Lumiose/Lumiose City if I don’t! That map is literally round, hah.

Much like this Pokémon, you seem like you're going around and around and around the answer.

I started looking up spinning Pokémon, as I had Hitmontop in mind yesterday... Hitmontop could have some romance problems because there are no females! I guess they just appear fully formed or maybe have Ditto moms. Idk. Anyway it's probably not that.
Spinda, on the other hand, experienced a sudden frenzy of rarity because it... can't be exchanged/transferred through Home? From what I can tell? And allegedly some people were trading shinies for it because they didn't want to bother with getting Spinda from Swarms.

Worth a try, I suppose.

You seem to be on the right track now, but for easy reference, here's all the clues so far together:

- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFnQDZK9b3g
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjGghHWTvuE
- The answer involves a fun fact about a particular pokemon, but is not the name of that pokemon
- The hints are the song names or the gist of the lyrics. Upload date is not involved here!
- Keep in mind the name of the symbol! It's not random!
- Much like this Pokémon, you seem like you're going around and around and around the answer.
Kim is obviously the answer 
Rpr is our second home and we keep coming back!
Back in topic...If it's not the name of a pokemon perhaps its an ability or a concept. Of it's about trading..some pokemon evolve after trading, some even need to you holding the console upside down xD

The ability to generate electricity through wind, like a wind turbine (go round) and can stay at sea for two months without landing, (long time no see)
Seabird Wattrel/Kilowattrel are ecological seabird pokemons
Doing a guess
I’m really not good at that

Is it something to do with Rotom?

Been trying spinda. It has an insane amount of patterns (4,294,967,296) and I tried to multiply it to get the amount including the shiny patterns but none of the numbers are right. I also tried "green" and stuff since spinda's shiny is green but I'm stumped 🤷
Trying voltorb as well, since it looks like a poke ball (its "home") and I guess electric can be the "glitter" ???
This was a really really hard one 😮💨

Found this :
Pokémon HOME cannot transfer Spinda into or out of Pokémon GO or Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, because of inconsistencies in how its spot pattern works.
In Pokémon GO, Spinda has nine predetermined forms rather than random patterns.
In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, this is due to a bug in the game, which causes the encryption constant to be read as a big-endian value (i.e. bytes are read in reverse order), and would allow the possibility to indirectly change Spinda's spot pattern. Spinda is the only Pokémon that cannot be transferred out of these games.

Yeah I also found the interesting bit about Spinda being the only pokemon that cannot be transferred to "Home" due to its countless patterns etc. We will continue trying once the monsters are dealt with...
Whoever was entering numbers was on the right path...

Congrats on solving this symbol! The answer was "8,589,934,592".
For those of you wondering how this answer could be arrived at, here's a quick explanation.

There’s a very few Pokémon that we haven’t been able to get into Pokémon Home without doing some convoluted multiple-console trading from the past. Spinda, a continually spinning Pokémon, is one of them, last properly seen in the wild in the main-line games in Ultra Sun/Moon in 2017. (It showed up in Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, but was unable to be sent into Pokémon Home thanks to a bug. Poor Spinda!) Spinda’s most notable feature is that the spot pattern on each one is nearly unique, determined by a 32-bit integer attached to each one. This means that there are billions and billions and billions of… potential spot patterns! 4,294,967,296 of them, in fact. Account for Spinda’s shiny colourations, too, and there are a whopping 8,589,934,592 potential Spindas out there. Their tottering movements make it look like they’re always dancing to music, too. Cute, right?
aaargh I tried it earlier but without the commas! Silly me 🥲
Sooo glad we got it! Great job everyone 👏 p h e w
