I don’t have a switch but my friend does and although she loves the Pokémon tcg she’s never played a Pokémon video game so I’m looking at getting her a Pokémon game to play, any advice appreciated
Like asking whats the best Zelda game for the CDi
Can I ask what your favorite Pokemon game is overall?
X and Y weirdly enough. Just to bully modern Gamefreak a little more, when Sword and Shield came out, part of their excuse for cutting a lot of the pokedex was the switch to Switch and needing to update too many animations. But my boi X and Y made the switch from 2D sprites to 3D models from scratch, and they got everyone. But besides that I liked the region, the cozy settings and focus on fashion. And megas did so much, giving new life to previously underwhelming but well designed fan favorites, and also reigniting the fanart scene with the burning question of “what would your favorite pokemon’s mega look like?” Exciting times in the fandom.
😅
I know right?
honestly, let’s go eevee is what i have the craving to go back and replay every so often. the core gameplay of catching pokemon is fun, it motivates me to complete the pokedex, and shiny hunting doesn’t take forever.
Let’s go Pikachu is considerably cheaper in my region, would the gameplay be much the same do you think?
Nevermind I just looked it up, they are remakes of earlier Pokémon games which suggests to me that they’re quite reliably good games
yeah pikachu/eevee are versions of the same game, and they’re both remakes of gen 1. i’d recommend them, i got a lot of enjoyment out of them.
I imagine if you’ve never played a Pokémon game that would be a pretty great place to start
if you’ve played pokemon go it’s a good way of bridging the gap, but if you’ve never played any pokemon games i’d probably suggest sun/moon for the ‘core’ experience.
It’s Legends: Arceus and it’s not even particularly close. Best way I can describe it is Pokemon with some Breath Of The Wild mechanics built in.
I haven’t played any other Pokémon games on Switch, so I can’t really say it’s the ‘best’, but I did really enjoy Legends Arceus. Really a fun game in my opinion.
Just looked it up on wiki, it sounds really solid! Thanks

Pokkén Tournament DX. I absolutely love this game, but wish it got much more support instead of getting stripped of official Nintendo tournaments already…
The Pokemon TV app, lol JK
