While for the more hardcore fans of Pokemon, there are a lot of things Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee are doing that may be questionable (such as gating gyms behind having very specific Pokemon on your team), there are some things I am sure everyone can admit the game seems to be pulling off marvellously well- at the top of that list? Your Pokemon following you in the overworld, and engaging and interacting with things in it, making it look livelier than it ever has before.
We’ve actually seen a lot of what your Pokemon following you (or you riding them) might look like in the game in previous videos. Now, new videos for the game, which you can see for yourself below, show us how specific Pokemon keep up with you (or don’t) in the overworld, including Caterpie, Electrode, Onix, and Venasaur. This game has so much personality, it’s actually insane.
Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee launch exclusively on the Nintendo Switch on November 16 this year.
