    Whats Included
    • Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu!

    Q: is this game compatible with nintendo switch light?

    A: Yes. Bought this and the switch lite. My son loves it.

    Q: Can this be played with the console on the dock?

    A: Yes, it’s actually more fun this way as you can catch Pokémon by emulating the catch with your joycons

    Q: Is this played indoors? Or is this the game that had people walking the actual neighborhood to catch pokeman?

    A: It can be played indoors. It doesn't have you going all over the world trying to catch pokemon through your camera.

    Q: How many players can play at once?

    A: This is absolutely best played as a one player game.

    Q: so i'm an old school, first generation pokemon player since the very first, how is this from the past?? does this have mega evos and weird gen 5+ pokemon or is this classic updated kanto??

    A: This is almost an updated yellow version honestly and it's a pretty sweet game if you spent 100s of hours playing red and blue like me you'll love this it's the original 151 with a sprinkle of alolan variants that you trade for from traveling npcs

    Q: Is this game capable of switching pokemon between pokemon go and lets go

    A: Yes, but you have to play about half way through the game before being able to. After that , you can transfer Pokemon from Go into Let's Go and then into Pokemon Home aswell.
