This releases on February 20th in Japan - a new trailer confirms this: Also, an informational live stream about the game is being held on November 4th.

I beat Shadar this weekend but I'm feeling the fatigue setting in now. I really should finish the game and beat the true final boss but I hope that I don't have to grind too much to be able to defeat it - I'm currently at level 60, ish. I also don't know if I should include the new party member on my team or not. I don't like Swaine but don't want to spend time levelling the fourth member...

9/8/8/8 from Famitsu.

Yeah... never going to complete that.

Busy day! Got a Chandalure, a Durant, a Darkrai and a Conagrigus today. Furthermore, I hatched a 96 % Chimchar from an egg, so it's ready for CD in November. I also found a Golett the other day but they are really rare. Would love to hatch or catch another one so it has a decent amount of Candy before this double Candy event is over.

I'm curious about that as well. The first game was really short but I don't think this will be as short as that.

Sweet, got a Litwick in an egg yesterday - awarded me with 56 Candy for it and have thus reached 102 Candy. And I even have two Unova stones now so one for Litwick and one for Pansear.

Oy, you haven't read my comments then.

I've decided that if I don't get to review this, I won't be getting it on this side of Christmas. I'm just not convinced that the Maxing tihng won't ruin the game completely for me.

Glad someone got it!

It's exclusive to those with Let's Go, Pikachu-save data but it won't remove the Pikachu from said game. There are other Pikachus in the game (Sword / Shield) but they won't be able to go Giga.

It's been like that for a few days. It's a bug in the game, also happened in the days up to Turtwig CD.

Golden enemy spawn? Never seen one in muy 36 hours with the game! They must be rather rare. And then finding and capturing 250 familiars? That's insane - some of them take hours to just try to catch! I'm glad there is no trophy on Switch. I'm at the part where I need to collect a new instrument for finally taking on Shadar.

I think this is very true. I don't think anyone in the world cares about this concept and thinks it's cool or beneficial. The raids in the game are a good idea and something I think the game will benefit from, but this is just... useless and unnecessary. I think that everyone would have loved the game if it were like Pokémon Stadium regarding battles. No tricks, no gimmicks, just plain battling in beautiful 3D environments on the big screen. And yes, the gen 1 love is just getting too much. We just had a remake of that generation, let it be for ... sake! There ARE other generations, Game Freak! I would be very surprised if any Pokémon from Gen 1 were missing from the National Dex.

Awful.... Just awful.

I don't really do raids and would love to just get the Special Research but nope, I'm not paying (that much) just to get a Pokémon that will just be stashed in the bag because it's not useable for anything.

But haven't we said this for like, 15 years? And there are still great games released alongside those AAAAAAA games. The industry needs the big sellers to make a profit so they can make what they want.

Well, number 31 isn't great but considering the mass appeal of the game combined with the plethora of other releases these weeks, I wouldn't say it's that bad. Remember that only four* third party games have achieved to sell more than 500,000 copies on Switch (this was revealed last week) while several games coming out at the time will achieve that on other platforms, I believe. * Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy, Starfew Valley, Mario + Rabbids and Minecraft.

Oh, wow, yeah, then you should be fine, I guess! I still have to evolve a few to their final form but I only grind when I need to.

Until you have to metamorph them to their final stage... I don't quite like how that resets the level completely.

What, how do you do that? I recently got 9000 from one battle and was stunned - I thought it was because I killed a special familiar but is there a way to make them spawn?

Now confirmed for Europe

I would find a Pegasus-like Pokémon pseudo-legendary material.. I think it's a good idea to have a third evolution of Ponyta, that would be kind of cool. And they could always nerf Rapidash a little.

Oh... Golett.. Forgot about that. I guess that'll come in an egg at some point while I'm collecting candy for the others. I'm at 66 Candy for Klink which is the only one I've had as a buddy. I got one of the others so haven't got much candy for those. But good call with Litwick at the halloween event, that's almost guaranteed. I have one Unova stone that I got through a Research Breakthrough. Also finally caught the last Psychic Pokémon I needed for the A Thousand Year Slumber research. On to the next step!
