Ah thanks. I haven't really been following that part that close as I don't play Go. I'm sure there will be folks here who can trade.

Ah thanks. I haven't really been following that part that close as I don't play Go. I'm sure there will be folks here who can trade.
I pre ordered the Pokeball bundle a few weeks ago but I'm so scared they'll sell it and won't have anymore. The GS I go to has sold reserved games in the past. SSBU is my last reserve at GS then I'm going Amazon pre orders only.
Reminder that you cannot evolve Meltan in Let's Go. That, on top of not being able to transfer from Let's Go to Go, makes it so you can't just start with a Meltan in your team and eventually evolve it, which is a bummer. Take it into account when planning your team.
You can collect every Pokemon (of the original 151) except for Meltan and Melmetal without playing Go. You can even get Alola forms in the game. Of course, you will have to trade for version exclusives.
A Ballroom Blitz reference was the last thing I expected in this thread but I am so thankful it happened.
For a game called Let's Go it barely plays like Go. Are you okay with the capture mechanics? If so, you're good to go, the rest of it the game is essentially a watered down traditional remake of Yellow.
Let's say I want Meltan, how hard is he to find in Pokemon GO as someone who's only played it very sparingly.
I don't mind the catching mechanics/gameplay, I just really didn't like the "actually go outside and find Pokestops/Gym's" aspect since I live in a pretty rural area with nothing around. Was mostly asking about what I'd be missing out on as far as connecting the two games.
I've barely played Pokemon games (only a few hours of Red), but I've been following the discussions about Let's Go and...
This. The title is just amazing ^_^
That said, I hope you guys end up liking the game.

Very easy. When you connect Go to Let's Go you receive an item called the 'Mystery Box'. When used in Go this will act as an incense that only spawns Meltan for 30 minutes. Estimates are that you'll be able to get between 10 and 30 Meltan within that time frame. 400 candy is needed to evolve to Melmetal, which means you need something like 58 Pinapped Meltan to evolve.
I believe all you have to do is transfer the gift box to LG and it'll have Meltan in it but it takes a bit of playing for it to be unlocked to acquire I believe.
First time Amazon has ever shipped my game early... and I sent it to my parents house. Guess I'm making a pre-holiday visit home.
But let's say I have a Vulpix on Go, can I tranfer that to Let's Go Pikachu or will the game prevent me from capturing that Vulpix in Let's go?
Got it this morning, one day earlier, from Amazon.
I'm in Viridian Forest, and so far it's been a beautiful experience. I'm a bit overleveled already, as I'm catching almost everything that comes up on screen, but I'm having a hell of a time, especially with the Pokéball Plus.
As someone was saying earlier, the framerate drops on occasion, which sucks. Let's hope GF learns their lesson and gets better with gen 9.
So far so good, anyway.

I'm super excited to play this when it unlocks. The last Pokemon game I played was X. I'm okay with them making the game more simple but I am bummed about no day and night cycle.
I am going with Pikachu even though Eevee is one of my favorites because I thought it was cute in Pokemon Yellow when Pikachu followed you. I also want to evolve an Eevee into Flareon which you can't do with a starter Pokemon.
The only other thing that had me conflicted on which version to buy was Vulpix being exclusive to the Eevee version. I hope someone will be kind to trade me one ☺️

Thanks! That makes life easier. So basically if you play Go there are no exclusives that require the other version?
Pretty much.
There's going to be a Kanto event in Go soon which will probably make getting the exclusives of the other version even easier without having to trade with someone.
Got my copy this morning, yay for getting things a day early.
Just played the opening and it was adorable (Pikachu edition).
Also, making the game entirely playable with the Poké Ball Plus is a great achievement, considering you only have two buttons, an analogue stick and motion controls. It works super well, and I like the extra sounds and lights. Seriously impressed with the concept of this thing, and it will be my preferred way to play.
I really only got it for the Mew, but glad I did now.

Yeah, playing Go more or less let's you transfer all the version exclusives, except iirc Mew. I'm not sure if Go gave the ability to catch it, but I've heard it eont be transferable and the pokeball is the only way of obtaining it right now......
Unless you use strength on that truck in front of the SS Anne.
Dang. That sucks. I wouldn't count on it getting better. It never got any better on the 3DS.
I am pretty sure he will still be sitting on your shoulder all the time.
It's not abysmal, mind you, just that for what it is, one would expect a more stable framerate.
Oh he will. Taunting me like that. Doesnt mean I have to use him lol
Potentially dumb question. I'm a US Switch owner and I've set up NNID's for Japan, UK, and Australia. Is there any reason why I shouldn't just buy the game from the Australian eShop so I can play now? I have a credit card with no foreign transaction fees.
Plead your case to support on the phone and they would likely refund you so you can get Eevee.
Not sure how it works, but I would say that you'd need to buy the game with an AUS/NZ Nintendo account to play it right now.
"Hello Nintendo, I really hate this fucking rat can I switch for the more superior Eevee version?"
IIRC I bought Mario Odyssey this way (got a code through Amazon Japan ~12 hours before release in NA) and I was able to play on my US account.
The problem is that I got it off the JP eshop to play it a little bit early....... Lolololol
I'll just roll with it. Hahaha
Ahhhhh can't wait to pick this up tomorrow! Got the Pikachu Pokeball bundle ordered at Best Buy.
Can anyone elaborate on the battery of the go plus?
I've heard conflicting reports. I've heard some people say 3 hours and some people say 20. Also I'm pretty sure that's gameplay and I'm curious what is the battery impact while carrying it around all day with your phone.

Maybe it will be like a buddy comedy and you hate him now but eventually it will wear you down and you will become the best of friends.
