Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! & Let's Go, Eevee! Coverage Day 6
It's Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! & Let's Go, Eevee!'s launch weekend. As such, our usual discoveries have begun. As usual, I'll be posting the main focal points here, while more in-depth details go on the discovery thread on the forums (including some details I won't post here). If you want to remain unspoiled, do not click the spoiler tag, nor visit the Let's Go, Pikachu! & Eevee! section until you have your game. Don't worry as blatant spoilers will NOT be on the home page.
Our Let's Go Pokédex has all the data for all 153 Pokémon in the game while our Pokéarth Section has full details on everything in each route with our Item Database listing full locations of every item in the game. Our Let's Go Section also has full information on everything from special trainers to Catch Combos
