Topic: Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee!

@Grumblevolcano I thought handheld mode required gyroscope controls to catch Pokemon. So they're saying it doesn't? It's unclear to me.

@Harmonie The new info says that you can use the left stick to aim the Pokeball and press A to throw. Makes sense as Pokemon is a handheld franchise so being able to play it in handheld mode will make it more appealing.

Heyy everyone, this release date is fast approaching! I’ve just had a baby 2nd August so my switch has been on hold.

Can someone confirm what Pokémon are in which version of the games? Is it the original 150 ? Bulbasaur, Meowth etc?

Also is this a DS Red / Blue / yellow style game remade for switch or am I completely wrong?

What version is everyone ordering? And are yous getting the poke ball version 👀👀 decisions decisions!

Pokemons from 1 to 151 + alolan forms + 1 new pokemon (meltan).

This is a reimagining of Pokemon Yellow for the Game Boy, combined with elements from Pokemon Go.

Thanks - are all 150 Pokemon in each game or are some exclusive to each title? @Yosheel

@boyd88

There’s a few confirmed exclusives.

So far these games seem to follow the same exclusives that were in red and blue, with Pikachu being the red, and eevee the blue.

Looks like you have to play Pokemon GO to get Meltan in Pokemon Let's Go:

I hope not. I’d rather they just make it so we link our Go account and it unlocks an event or whatever. Going out and randomly finding a single pokemon in the middle of no where is not what I call fun.

@-Green- At least it's not locked behind a €50 controller

Can you transfer mews from Pokemon go?

Can they finally remove trade requirements to evolve Haunter, Kadabra, Machoke, etc. ? Their third stages are some of my favorite Pokémon but I don’t want to have to jump through hoops to evolve them anymore.

So Serebii.net just posted this:

"The Spanish site, Vandal, elaborates on this further and states that there are 151 Master Trainers, one for each of the original Pokémon. Each of these will focus on the species of Pokémon at a high level so you have to defeat them all. So if you find the Squirtle Master Trainer, you will defeat him and gain the title"

Sounds pretty significant, though I worry about how grindy it'd get with that many.

Maybe it's just the one single Pokemon in the battle.

I wonder if peoples get tempted to buy Nintendo Switch just for Meltan on Nintendo Switch by transfering from smartphone.

The official artwork is kinda cute, but the in-game model looks terrible.

@Yosheel This means that there would be a Magikarp Master Trainer out there.... What if it's 6 level 100 Magikarp, all using Tackle...

Also it comes from the Pokemon Quest island and knows hyper beam.

Am a original 151 pokemon master, although i love them like no tomorrow, my original were always Eevee, Mew, Marowak, Snorlax, Ninetales, Charizard. while i did quit after gen 4, i am extremely interested in getting a nentindo switch for the let go eevee; but i would think the reason why alot of people dont want to get it is not cause it a remake cause i will say one thing i love the new look, and love how we can get some alolan pokemon (always want to see the difference), but becuase we have no online capabilites like in other games. Now am not saying it not thier, but it a complex system that make those of us who would like to just get off work relax and just enter a matchmaking server and battle, complete put off. personally and a few of my friend agreed we dont want to have to log on are computer serach the net for a website ask for code to be able to battle someone, that just to much work and hassle. now hopefully Nintendo will fix thier system up a bit and not screw up like they have in the pass. but if they do make it so pokemon company can add a MMS then i would defiently buy this game for the old joys of the original 151. let me know what you think and up this topic if you agree. toodles

A friend and I are hardcore Pokemon Go players (lvl 40) and the integration of Let's Go with Go is one of the main reasons we bought the Switch this year.

Seems like you need to send a Pokemon to Let's Go, then you get a box in Go where you get Meltan from and then can send it again to Let's Go.

what is different from lets go pikachu then regular pokemon series? like the one coming out for switch in 2019?
