Grinding for days only to find a damn shiny Zubat!

Can dress them up but can’t transfer all the various hat-Pikachu’s over from PoGo

I wanted my Squirtle Squad!!!

Old school gaming smoothly brought up to date

So I’ve been playing this for a year & thought I should probably review it before Sword & Shield releases.
So take the template of Pokémon Yellow, update it with Pokémon Go’s unique style & wedge the word “Let’s” in the title (be honest, we all ready it in Marino’s voice anyway!). Create variants to nod at the core games.
Pikachu is actually useful as you don’t get HMs but Pikachu learns skills that are basically the same thing (I assume Eevee does too) some uniquely created moves to make that starter much more viable throughout the game (shame Pika doesn’t get a fire move!)
Nice to see Jessie & James too
You don’t actually need to trade to complete the dex as you’ll have most in Pokémon Go & can transfer that way.
30+ combo for highest chance of a shiny?!? Really. Caught over 200 Geodude’S in a combo & nothing!
Would’ve liked the surfing game from Yellow to have made an appearance though
