I started seeing TV adverts for this as early as Tuesday, which was ten whole days ahead of its release. I have a feeling this game it going to be huge. Interestingly, the Pikachu version is selling much better than the Eevee one.

Well, duh. It's got a Pikachu on the cover. Eevee can't compare to that popularity.

Yo are ignoring the fact that the majestic Arcanine is exclusive of the Pukachu version.

Without Intimidate, Arcanine will lose a lot of the competitive edge that it just got in Sun/Moon.

Now it's just an average Fire Pokémon again. You'd be better off using one of the Mega Charizards/Moltres.

Some of us don't care about silly things like competition, we just want a FIRE DOG.

Pokemon Go was my 1st Pokemon game so I'm not at all clued up. I was going to get the Eevee version, but is the Pikachu version definitely better?

Oh, first Pokémon RPG ever? OK, let me clue you up.

The main difference between the two versions is that there are some Pokémon you can only catch in a certain version.

Let's GO Pikachu has Sandshrew, Sandslash, Oddish, Gloom, Vileplume, Growlithe, Arcanine.

Let's GO! Eevee has Vulpix, Ninetales, Bellsprout, Weepinbell, Victreebell, Meowth, Persian

It's usually meant to be an incentive to trade with friends and such, but seeing as you can transfer Pokémon from GO, you can just do that. It really just depends on whether you want a Pikachu or a Eevee in your team. (Pikachu is way more useful)

Feels like something that will change down the line with an update

Yep, you're definitely new to Pokémon. That's not happening. Ever.

That's why they gave those special elemental attacks to Eevee, otherwise it wouldn't be able to do anything. It's movepool is enterally normal type attacks, apart from Bite (assuming Pokemon have their movepools from the "main" games).

Pikachu's stats aren't great, it's not like it's going to be able to take physical attacks.

Eevee isn't all that Defense wise either.

I really don't know why I've even got this game pre-ordered really, it's not the Pokemon game I really want and I'm sure it'll sell just fine anyway.

*cancels pre-order*

Plus, other games to play... Smash is out in mere weeks and it would be good to just save a bit of cash. :peace:

S.C.G used cancel pre-order...

...it’s super effective! :grin:

Smart move I reckon. Despite loving the look of this game (and its focus on old-school Pokémon) I never even got to pre-ordering it. Had it launched earlier I might’ve been tempted, but not now with Smash right around the corner.

May not be something that can be answered, but what do we think the replayability will be like in this game?

Im tempted to download the game rather than buy the physical, but I only really do that in games that I feel will give me some replay value. 

Any ideas from those who know more about it whether it will be wise to download or get physical so I can maybe trade  in once all the fun has been had?
