Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments

Starting today, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are hosting a 5-Star Shiny Rayquaza raid event that’s accessible to all players.

In other words, even though this is a Legendary Pokemon raid, it shouldn’t give you quite as much trouble as the other raid events Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have hosted in the past. Here’s how to take down and catch the Shiny Rayquaza raid before the event ends on January 5, 2025.

These Pokemon have not appeared in a new main series Nintendo Switch game

Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Features, Switch | 0 comments

Today, we’re looking at all the unlucky Pokemon who have not been obtainable in any main series Nintendo Switch games.

The Nintendo Switch has seen two generations of Pokemon so far – three if you count the Let’s Go games. We’ve got the eighth generation, which includes Sword and Shield, Legends: Arceus, and Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. And then there’s the ninth generation, which so far only includes Scarlet and Violet but will eventually include Legends: Z-A when it releases in 2025. With all those different games, though, there are still quite a few Pokemon that haven’t been usable in any new main series titles. To clarify what that means – today, we’re going to go over every Pokemon that has not appeared in Sword, Shield, Legends: Arceus, Scarlet, or Violet. Since Let’s Go, Pikachu and Eevee and Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are remakes, we aren’t counting them for this list even though they are technically main series games. One final note before we begin – The Pokemon Company has clarified that the Legends games do in fact count as main series.
