The early Black Friday deals have officially arrived, providing an excellent opportunity to catch up on Nintendo Switch Pokemon games you might have missed over the past few years. Both Walmart and Target are offering significant discounts on a variety of titles, including some of the latest entries in the mainline series and remakes of classic games.
If you haven't yet delved into the latest generation of Pokemon games, Pokemon Scarlet is currently on sale for $45 (originally $60). This is one of the best prices we've seen this year, as Pokemon games rarely see discounts this substantial. Our review of Pokemon Scarlet awarded it an 8/10, highlighting its thrilling open world, engaging combat, and unique non-linear progression style.
You can also find Let's Go Eevee discounted to just $40 at both Walmart and Target. Let's Go Pikachu is also available at a reduced price, though slightly higher at $42. Our review of Pokemon: Let's Go Eevee and Let's Go Pikachu also gave them an 8/10. These modern reimaginings of the original Red, Blue, and Yellow versions boast an adorable art style and new catching mechanics. While the two games offer different starter Pokemon—either Pikachu or Eevee—and a few exclusive catchable critters, they otherwise provide identical experiences. If one sells out, the other makes a suitable alternative.
Rounding out the early Black Friday deals is a substantial price cut on Pokemon Shining Pearl, now down to $38 (originally $60) at Walmart. This remake of the Nintendo DS game Pokemon Pearl adheres closely to the gameplay of the original, updating the visuals and making minor tweaks rather than introducing new content or mechanics. If this version sells out, a backup listing offers the game for $45. Both listings are sold by third-party vendors, but Walmart handles the fulfillment. Additionally, both options include extended holiday returns, allowing you to return the item until January 31.
