Don’t Just Evolve… Mega Evolve
In Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee!, players will be able to Mega Evolve a Pokemon once per battle if they have a Key Stone and the Mega Stone corresponding to that specific Pokemon. Mega Evolution, known as “the Evolution that transcends Evolution,” momentarily unleashes the energy within a Pokemon and can only be accomplished when a strong bond exists between the Pokemon and its Trainer. The first three Pokemon that fans will be able to Mega Evolve during their adventure will be Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise.Explore Iconic Kanto Region Location Vermilion City
Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokemon: Let’s Go, Eevee! will bring players to a variety of interesting locations in the Kanto region, including Vermilion City, where the luxury cruise liner the S.S. Anne docks once a year. In the Vermilion City Pokemon Gym, players can battle Gym Leader Lt. Surge, who is also known as the Lightning Lieutenant.Here Comes Team Rocket!
