Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! & Let's Go, Eevee!
During the Treehouse Live segment, two new moves for Eevee have been revealed. In the game, you can get the special moves previously revealed for Pikachu & Eevee at a tutor in Celadon City's Pokémon Center. The new moves are "Glitzy Glow" and "Baddy Bad". At present it's not known which types they are.
You can also use a Fortune Teller to help determine the Nature of Pokémon you will encounter. The fortune teller asks you which colour you want to increase and which you want to decrease which helps determine which nature you get in wild encounters for the rest of the day.
Edit @ 15:39: They have also confirmed that the IV Judge feature returns and appears in the Pokémon's stat screen but requires unlocking
Edit @ 15:50: They also confirmed that you can get a Mystery Box which gets you Meltan if you transfer a Pokémon from GO to Let's Go at least once a week. The box can only be obtained once a week limiting the amount you can give out. At present it's not clear if it's once a week per Let's Go Game or once a week per GO game
