And there was me thinking Ni No Kuni 2 would be where my opinion would differ from most critics. This is my rather scathing review of Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee for Nintendo Switch.

fair review, I really enjoyed this game but I didn't dare to compare the experience to the main series. I hope they will take what players liked and implement it in the future main series games. Candy was broken but for me it was great since I could play all the battles with Sandshrew and Rhyhorn which are my favourites (just boosting their speed and special defense a bit). And I ran a nuzlocke (catching only the first pokemon that popped up, level cap-ing my pokemon on the next gym leader and using only as many pokemon in a fight as gym leaders) sadly it took out some surprises since I had to check levels and pokemon numbers online before fights but it made it more challenging and Misty was a fucking whore with her Scald Starmie. Made the game more memorable and fun

Personally I hate the new catching mechanics. It takes all the fun and challenge out of catching Pokémon. You talked about how tedious the original method was but the new one is infinitely worse in that aspect. You just mindlessly throw balls and just hope they work. At least in the old system you could make it easier with some basic strategy, the new system is just mindless.

Wow...suspect dude you just saved me a lot of money. I was gonna get this when I eventually got a switch but with how skewered and neutered they made this game, if I did do that I’d just be throwing away money. I’ll just be here waiting for the next generation Pokémon game that returns things to normal thank you very much.

I honestly think that the more you know about Pokemon and how it works, the less fun it is. It is the perfect example of ignorance is bliss. I used to love Pokemon games but the day I learned about natures, EVs, eggs mechanics etc. etc. etc. my OCD kicked-in because I wanted "the best" I just couldn't cope since it was all so hard and the odds unlikely, that it kinda broke my heart haha Never touched these games since Diamond...

Suspect, I've always been such a huge fan of your work. Your well delivered dark humor, your PHENOMENAL editing skills you incorporate into your videos, and just all around charismatic approach to talking about these medias. I just wish there was more of that! I understand that the KZfaq algorithm is a total bitch when it comes to content, but it would really be a good idea to maybe add a little more comedy into these videos, and show off you're prowess with editing. I understand how difficult making these videos are, especially on a basis that KZfaq requires, but I think your channel would do far better if you let loose some more it these things. Either way, keep up the good work, and I hope I see your channel grow!

To be fair, you can use Sky Dash through the Town Map, which is much faster. It's how I do it. Since the map is the first item you get, it's right there near the top of the bag. You can even move it to the top. It's still annoying, but it works much better than the Play With option.

I love Eevee's specialty moves in this game. Attacks that set up screens and leech seed, I've always wanted those kinds of moves, and they're 90 base power moves. It would be awesome if Eevee in the main games could learn 1 of these moves based on which Eeveelution it evolved into. That would be amazing and automatically make every Eeveelution vastly more competitively viable

One minor thing: this is deliberately not a core Pokemon game. It was announced, marketed and sold as a new, transitional series between GO and the main series. Minor thing, and doesn't really excuse the missed opportunities, but still.

Yeah, but they're still charging full RRP with a £50 accessory. Let's Go is the most expensive Pokemon game yet (even without the Pokeball Plus accessory cos its on Switch), but it's the lightest on content. I'd go easier on the game if the price reflected this. The Spyro Reignited Trilogy sold for a budget price, Let's Go should've done the same I think. Nothing wrong with doing a lighter, more streamlined version of Pokemon, but the price should be adjusted accordingly.

@@TheUnusualSuspect Firstly, what does RRP mean? I'm not familiar with that expression. Secondly, I agree completely. There is not a single point here that I disagree with, though maybe that's because I don't have high opinions of most Pokemon games. I just think you should have said "New Pokemon game" as opposed to "New Core Pokemon game."

1:29 - Well I was able to get the bundle (albeit the Eevee version since it was literally the only one that was available at the time) for the price of the game itself in my nearest Wal-Mart just a couple of days ago, so it's worth it. Besides, even at this point and after watching the conference video where this was announced, I still think you had too many expectations for something that is part remake/ part Go companion. It's more of a 7.5 out of 10 for me. Now if you excuse me, I'm going to begin my Journey anew with Eevee until I can get the Pikachu version at a lower price.

I always found the Super Training from X/Y to be a more convenient way to raise your Pokémon's stats, even if it was tedious...very tedious. Also, you named your Gengar "Give Up."? You're awesome. Also, I have to disagree about the friendly rival. Everyone in the region is already picking a fight with you, do we really need another jackass to regularly run into? I personally appreciate people that can get shit done without feeling the need to be a pompous brat to everyone including their Pokémon and their own grandfather, Blue. Honestly, what you said sort of comes off as reinforcing the notion that only assholes get anywhere.
