You’ll soon be able to catch pokémon on your Nintendo Switch. This week developer Game Freak is releasing a pair of games for the console called Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!
The games are the first Pokémon titles for the Switch, and they will integrate with the mobile game Pokémon Go. Set in the Kanto region, they’ll include the original 151 monsters and allow players to battle one another and capture the creatures with the console’s Joy-Con controllers.
