However, there are a few Pokemon fans that are feeling burned by the announcement, insisting that the game isn’t for themโฆ

That said, there appears to be a lot of anticipation for the games and not so many critiques about them. Granted, we haven’t seen too much in action just yet, but with E3 just a couple of weeks away, that’s likely to change. Pokemon fans should gear up for the biggest year yet for the franchise. Gotta catch ’em all!
Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee! will ship on November 16 for Nintendo Switch.
