Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu/Eevee! |OT| One Step Forward, Six Generations Back

Forget the run animation, the real incompetence is the controller configuration issues when you switch from Co-op to single player. I don't know if it's just me but I literally can't find a way to switch back to handheld mode in game, I have to always reset the game. Honestly think this is embarrassing for a company as profitable as Game freak.
Personally I'm not a huge fan of turn-based RPGs nor of Pokémon in general, but this seems like a decent entry point to try and get into the grove more. Plus I have a hard time going back to the minuscule screens of 3DS and such, which makes it hard to enjoy the games there for me nowadays. The Switch spoiled me in terms of tech, heh. I'll let you know how's the game for me, in theory I should get it in the next 3-10 days.
Shake the other joycon again and the support player goes away
i ended up beating it after raising my venusaurs special attack and special defense by about 100 points each.
Yeah I started rotating my initial Pokemon and have been avoiding catching so I ended up underleveled in Celadon lol. Need to do some chain / grinding.
I have a shiny Hypno to trade. Which shiny may you offer in exchange? :P
Can you run from a Pokemon that you have a streak on?
For example, if you have a 31 streak on a Growlithe and accidentally encounter another, can you run without killing the streak?

Eh. I wouldn't go that far. As someone who hunts in every gen I'd say this is the most satisfying its been in quite some time.
It's just as variable as ever though, as the odds point out.
What do the swirly blue and red whirlwinds surrounding overworld Pokémon mean? And why is it relevant if Pokémon are relatively tiny or huge?
why people keep repeating this "if you ignore these features and dont do these things and keep this arbitrary rules the game is harder than before!!!"
if you do self made restrictions in every game previous to LGPE its harder than it as well. This is not an argument. We're comparing base games using base features here and base LGPE is braindead easy. Which is the point - it was never designed to be a tough one. The focus here is not the battling, which is good for some, disappointing for others.

There's a free Squirtle as well. It's just dependent on how many Pokemon you've caught by then. I think I was at like 75 when I was given Squirtle.
I thought chain catching is for shinies. Is it for other stuff too?
I don't do it, but Brock and Misty were pathetic difficulty using my Oddish by Pallet Town. I hope the rest of the game isn't this brainless.
In general they could have done a much better job of providing comfortable controls options for this game.
Forced motion controls, single joycon only, no pro controller support, no option to aim with the gyro or control stick while docked - these are all awkward and unnecessary blemishes on a game that is supposed to be accessible for everyone.
The game looks great on my tv but the catching controls work better in handheld so either way it feels like I have to compromise something
That stretch from Lavender Town down to Fuchsia City was brutal for me. There is an Ace Trainer with a Sandslash that just fucked my whole team.
Five badges down!
Pikachu, Butterfree and Alolan Raticate have carved a permanent place on my team. Got a Kingler slowly leveling up for a water type. Can't decide on fire. Been leveling up a Growlithe but I always used to use Arcanine so trying to use different ones for a change. Just got Alolan Marowak so may use that. And currently rocking a Vileplume but I don't really like it so it's getting binned as soon as I think of a good replacement.

With my Evoli its was pretty easy. With water, electric and fire attack. I had only 3 badges. Evoli is just OP with the special attacks.
You are aware the amount of Pokemon caught is different for each person, right? That has nothing to do with self-imposed rules.
I'm in Fuchsia and my team is several levels behind what I'm facing. I'm not even rotating either or avoiding catching/battling.
I played Black and White and HG/SS last year and this game is exactly as hard as those. As it turns out those aspects that we thought were handholding, were actually there because it's very easy to be underlevelled in this game if you don't spend a good amount of time catching Pokémon, so you need a progress check once in a while.
The idea that this game is any easier than other Pokemon games is laughable. Simpler? Yes. Back to basics? Absolutely? Easier, nah Bruv.
Maybe he should've went after it straight away instead of shrieking like an idiot and playing up for his audience first.
If there's anything I've learned from watching Magikarp spawn in for a couple of hours it's that wild Pokemon do not stick around all that long.
Yes I think so. The game is really easy to get into and oozes with charm. It is also a really fun game.
Oh yes. How can anyone have such a fake reaction is beyond me.
Yeah, i never really played pokemon and this looks fun.
I think the animation of some attacks looks a bit off, but i will buy it
Don't hesitate to ask questions in this thread, people will gladly help you.
You'll find leveling off battles alone is going to leave you under levelled. Catching one pokemon is equivalent and most of the time more depending if its a special size.......is worth more xp than an entire battle against a trainer
Wait so i cant fight wild pokemon?
Dunno if I love or hate this. The tedium will go down for sure at least
Also it sucks how my rival can't be female

It's not a serious challenge but it's not a cake walk either. I use my started as my ringer (just because I think always using the same Pokémon is boring) and have had plenty of Pokémon faint. I've only had one team wipe.
I've also used very few candies.
Its more addictive
I've spent and absurd amoubt of time chaining going after shiny pokemon. I have never spent this much time in a pomemon game since probably black and white.
Just something about seeing pokemon in the overworld saves a ton of time and allows you just relax and look for what you want.
I never want random battles again.
I know that nostalgia can play a big part in this game...
But i soon started .... damn just reminds the hours i play pokemon yellow in my blue game boy color. It was my first console and game ever.
The lack of random encounters actually is pretty good in my opinion.
The game is pretty basic compared to my favorite pokemon game (Black and White 2) but theres a good foundation for the future.

So... has anyone actually been able to transfer pokemon from Pokemon Go?
I've tried 2 phones and my tablet, and none of them will connect to the switch when I talk to the guy at the Go Park, but they'll connect just fine when I try through the settings menu... I've tried resetting, disconnecting, all that shit.
Kinda at my wit's end, here.

I will say the game hitting in the fall has only added to the nostalgia.
Suddenly I'm 13 again, sitting under a blanket while its cold af outside, capturing pokemon, thinking about thanksgiving.

Did you go to Pokemon Go, go to your Pokemon menu, click the switch icon and select a Pokemon to transfer?
That process wasn't at all obvious to me when I tried it. I assumed it would connect first then you select the Pokemon, but it's the other way round. Bad UI design that.
Is there supposed to be a confirmation in the game that it's connected? Because it just says "Searching for a Pokemon Go account..." forever.
