Except this game is ridiculously cute. The number of times I've teared up at the overwhelming cute overload is embarrassing for a man of my age. You'll love this. It supports limited two-player mode, so you'll love playing this with your kids. Red and Blue version came out when I was a pre-teen. I fell out of the pokemon craze around the third generation of games. I found myself reliving memories from the 90's and falling in love with Kanto all over again while playing this game.
Enough with the nostalgia. You probably have some questions. Does incorporating the mobile game catch mechanics take away from the game? Surprisingly no. I thought I'd hate it, but it actually is nice. Your whole team earns experience by catching a pokemon. You can avoid them if you want because they appear in the overworld, rather than randomly in the grass. You aren't going to be under leveled for battling because the experience you get makes up for this. There are still many battles to be had, and they don't make them easier than the battles in the original.
I could write on and on forever about this game. Suffice it to say that it is a wonderful game for new and old players.
This game brings back all my nostalgia from when i got PKMN Red, Blue, and eventually Yellow. Everything is rendered beautifully, and my partner pokemon, Pikachu, melts my heart every time i play with him.
At first the lack of wild battles threw me for a loop, but i grew to enjoy just running in the field catching pokemon. Pokemon that i could actually see in the grass, so if i wanted to avoid battles, it became a weird game of bullet hell.
If you want pokemon battles, all the trainers, Gym Leaders, Rocket Grunts and the Elite Four are still there waiting for you to challenge them. There's even a few Alola NPCs here and there. After beating the Elite Four, there's some post game content that will keep you hunting pokemon for a long time. 153 Master Trainer battles.
The pokeball plus is a fun controller to use when playing, its got a button on Top (B), a joystick button (A) Motion controls (Shake for Y), the joystick, lights, and speakers. It's currently the only way to get Mew (151) in the game, but it was a fun purchase in the end. you can even take pokemon from Let's Go and take them for a walk. They will level up like crazy. DO NOT, however, buy the Pokeball Plus used. Buy it new so you are guaranteed to get Mew from it. You can only get Mew from the Pokeball Plus ONCE, after that, the ball is empty, no one can get a mew from that ball ever again.
The simplified mechanics make the game easy to understand. No hold items, no abilities, no EVs/IVs (A concept i still struggle with) and just the gen 1 pokemon (plus Meltan and Melmetal for the people with Pokemon Go). All in all, this is a great game for anyone just starting out in pokemon. It's where the adventure started for a lot of us veteran players and a great start for new comers.
Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2018
Though catching instead of battling wild Pokémon was a controversial idea, it works well and helps newcomers realize quickly the reality of IV's - information that for too long was held and manipulated only by the most dedicated players, thus dealing crushing defeats to unsuspecting casual players. This game is much more upfront about any mechanics that might give a competitive advantage, which is a good thing.
The soundtrack is lively and much better than the GBA interpretations, and seeing your Pokémon finally in HD is also something amazing.
My only complaint at all about the game is the control options, which admittedly are quite limiting. Aside from that, I love this game - and having played video games since 1998, I can honestly say it is my favorite.

The pokeball plus is well worth the extra money, especially if you also play Pokemon Go. Placing a pokemon in the ball for a stroll basically allows you to cheat in both games, as you gain massive experience for the pokemon in Let's Go, and auto spin pokestops in Go. And it's super cute and fun. :)
La Pokeball Plus es un control decente, teniendo de vez en cuando un par de fallas a la hora de "lanzar" la Pokeball para capturar Pokemon. Es suave y se siente muy bien en la mano aunque el tamaño sea pequeño debido al diseño pensado para un niño.
La Pokeball Plus no es necesaria para disfrutar el juego y es un poco molesto que sea la única forma en la que se puede adquirir a Mew, pero si eres un verdadero fan, vale la pena.
