Here are a few things for players to know about the new Pokemon Let’s Go games.

• These new Pokemon games are not part of the mainline series.
• Instead, the two games act as spinoffs that are connected to the Pokemon Go mobile game.
• This means that some elements of the games are similar to those in Pokemon Go.
• That includes how players catch Pokemon.
• Rather than battle, players will instead catch Pokemon in these games by throwing Pokeballs at them.
• Being that the games are tied to Pokemon Go, players can transfer their collections from that game to these ones.
• However, not all Pokemon can be transferred to the Pokemon Let’s Go games.
• These new games are remakes of the first generation Pokemon games that came out for the GameBoy Color.
• Due to this, players can only transfer Pokemon from the first generation to the game, but there are some exceptions.
• Players are also allowed to transfer Alolan and shiny forms of Pokemon in the first generation to the Let’s Go games.
• They can also transfer Meltan, a Pokemon that only just recently made its debut, from the Go game to these ones.
• It is also important to note that once players transfer a Pokemon from Go to the Let’s Go games, they can’t transfer them back.
