Pokémon Let's Go Eevee/Pikachu (Switch) announced; coming Nov 16th 2018

How do you manage any other game??
Nah. Gamefreak =/= Nintendo. You guys need to realize Pokemon, while partially owned by Nintendo, is managed by TPCi which does their own thing
There are only trainer battles (as far as we know) just like Pokemon Colosseum.
Not on purpose, I just strongly believe that the game is very devoted to being Gen 1.
I don't get it. Is there a new mainline Pokemon game for switch? I don't want to buy a poke ball and pretend to throw that shit irl
I know they can, I know they will, but I can't take that right now.
The way they are announcing both games at once is very reminiscent of when they announced Metroid: Samus Returns and Metroid Prime 4 at the same time, practically.
I wonder if someone will try to set up a Twitch Plays Pokemon of this game, it's simplistic enough they probably wouldn't get caught up on anything. It'd be great if they set up some weird rig to shake the controller when catching pokemon and had it on screen all the time. Just imagine how great spamming it would be
I feel like the backlash will make them change their mind. I mean, why not just use the controller stick for some hard precision aiming? Even Zelda and Mario on the Switch didn't need motion controls to finish most of their games.
Where have you been bro? Happy Home Designer, Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival, and Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp. The series has been completely fucked for several years.
And yet it still sells incredibly well and continues to grow its fanbase exponentially. Just like the Pokemon Let's Go games, vets will whine and Nintendo will laugh all the way to the bank. And everyone will move on and still think fondly of their favourite 'ruined' series. The end.
There's still a lot of information I need to hear before being OK with these games. It just sounds like there's absolutely nothing to it? Like, if you can just avoid Pokemon, don't have to battle them or interact with them at all outside catching them, what makes a dungeon like Mount Moon or Victory Road interesting at all? A couple of trainers here or there? Have they increased the amount of trainers? Will I be able to sleepwalk my way through the entire game because there are just no wild encounters? Are the trainers all going to be super easy, because you can't grind out levels on wild Pokemon? Are all the standard EXP, stats and abilities in there? Are Pokeballs obtained the same way considering it's the only meaningful interaction you can have with wild Pokemon, or is there a different way to earn them? Do I need to use the motion controls? Are there still all the typical held items and general use items, or are those scrapped? Is the battle system significantly gimped, or is it pretty much the same as the core games?
There's just so much you can't pick up in the trailer and so much you can't trust them not to have tossed out to appeal to Go players. I don't know. As I've written this probably half of this shit has been answered.

>looks like pokemon Go
>play mostly like pokemon gl with some extra RPg elementa from the main series
>Lacks other more relevant elements from the main series
I really dont see how anyone can un ironically call this a main pokemon series
This and Quest both look super cute! Definitely getting the Eevee version! A bit bummed about the lack of wild Pokémon battles but the lack of online stuff and EV's/IV's don't bother me much at all. Own pretty much all the main line games and never bothered with the online once, zero interest in competitive battling either. Catching Pokémon and tossing them when they don't have the right stats or nature always felt so mean to me and I just didn't have the heart to do so. Exploring the world, catching all the Pokémon, getting the badges and experiencing the story are what I play the games for. The clothes customization options for Eevee were adorable too!
Looking forward to November and of course next year when gen 8 supposedly releases!

Ehhh, it wouldn't have killed them to do outfits for the evos.
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
gyro required is always a mistake
just make alternate fling-stick option
I don't care that the game exists. What does bother me though is the $60 price tag. This game should be $40 max,
especially since the gen 8 games will for sure be $60 as well, and those will have like 800+ more mons and other extra stuff.

Is this like a budget spin off then? Do we have pricing?
Still, you'd think it could have been at least somewhat more ambitious. It isn't like this thing won't sell gangbusters or fetch a healthy return.
So what random twitter port are we to believe?? Everyone seem to be bringing a different opinion/ response as the minutes go by
OK. fuck this. I was fine with catching Pokemon using the touch screen to throw curve balls in such, a la Pokemon Go.
But this is kind of ridiculous.
I think Pokemon will be dead until 2019... this just sounds extremely watered down. It has a beautiful premise but no features from a 2018 game should be lacking online play. This is absolutely dumb. Emily was right when she said we'd react with hostility.
Motion controls mandatory. No online.
These devs don't fucking get it. They're fucking clueless. Smh.
Having options never hurt anyone and it makes games MORE ACCESSIBLE TO MORE PEOPLE.

The point being they anticipated disappointment. People were hyped about Metroid: Samus Returns, but they probably thought some fans would be disappointed that the only Metroid in development is a remake on the 3DS when the Switch was the new hotness.
Not when they announce a game in the perfect vein of the main line series is on the work and is out next year.
