    Pokemon Go Compatible

    The Poké Ball Plus is a Poké Ball-shaped device that can be used to play Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! in place of your Joy-Con. You’ll be able to throw Poké Balls in-game with a flick of your wrist! In addition to motion controls, the device lights up with a variety of colors, vibrates, and plays sounds.

    With the Poké Ball Plus, you can also take one of your favorite Pokémon from these games for a stroll as you go about your daily life in the real world. The Poké Ball Plus even works as a Pokémon GO Plus when playing Pokémon GO.

    I want to know more about the gameplay, but looking forward to it!

    Also, "gift" Eevee/Pikachu allegedly won't evolve. But if you catch one in the wild it can.

    Doesnt change the fact that you still cant fight in GO, having the pokeball that can yell near you is stupid, and still can<t challenge people on the road lol

    I agree that ball that can yell/be stroked is very stupid. I cringed a little haha


    I almost forgot that Blue got an Eevee in Yellow; and it evolved depending on you did against him. Took me a moment to realise this is basically Pokemon Yellow "Remake", sorta.


    How's eevee been these days though? Is it popular enough to masquerade as a mascot?

    Pokemon Company has been pushing Eevee as a second mascot for the last couple years: https://twitter.com/project_eevee?lang=en

    I hope this paves the way for more Eeveelutions, we're coming in on Gen 8 and still no Drakeon or Arachneon.

    Dumb. Paused video on a wild encounter and it showed the "CP" value. This is basically pokemon go on the switch, without the going outside to catch shit. No thanks.

    But you can battle with what you catch finally, so.. it's basically a normal pokemon game with a sidecar mobile app that lets you get ahead if you've been addicted to Poke'Go

    Am I the only one slightly triggered by Pikachu being in a pokeball in Oak's lab?

    Nope.

    Also, finally seeing Misty like this is just glorious.

    If the battling is a bit more robust than Pokemon Go, I may go and grab this.

    I'm probably going to cancel my preorder, just because Darksiders 3 is launching the next week so I wouldn't have time to play

    So this isn’t just Go for the switch and has normal Pokémon battles? Or for normal battles do you still throw balls like in Go?

    Wild Pokemon is like GO, Trainer/Gym battles are traditional.

    I hope a lot of these ideas, Co-Op, Riding Pokemon, the bonding thing, running with your Pokemon on the field, are all more-or-less beta ideas for that Main Series console release they're planning. They all look like good and fun features people have been asking for since frigging Silver allowed it.

    Either way looks interesting. I can handle Go Pokemon catching, its not terrible for what it is, so long as the battles are traditional I think I'll pick this up and give it a shot.

    I’ll be waiting for reviews because I think it can be terrible since how do you level up your Pokémon if there is non traditional battling? If I have to get candy from dupes then fuck this game. I do dig the art style and animations though

    This game would be so perfect if it wasn't for the stupid pokemon GO with wild battles.
