It’s a big year for Pokémon, as 2019 marks the debut of the first proper generational shift game in the franchise on the Nintendo Switch. While Pokémon Let’s Go Eevee and Pikachu may hold the honour of being the first sort of traditional RPG on that system and featuring familiar mechanics, it was still more of a gateway game that provided a taste of what a dedicated Pokémon could be on that platform before Pokémon Sword and Shield arrives.
