2626 When a Storage Pokemon's habitat is placed adjacent to a Workbench, items held by the Pokemon become craftable inputs without being transferred to your inventory first. This mirrors the behavior of Storage Boxes placed next to Workbenches. In practice, a settlement with a Workbench, a Storage Box, and a Swalot habitat all clustered together creates a one-stop crafting zone where you never need to reshuffle inventory.
