Ranking the Mainline Pokémon Switch games

Which is the very best...for Nintendo Switch!?
My personal rankings of the mainline Pokémon games for the Switch.

Lets go was the best and it actually looked really nice unlike all the others on switch

[@Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeert]

I thought sword looked awesome.

#1 for me is definitely Sword & Shield .....but everyone is going to have their own personal favorites correlating to their individual play style. Part of the genius of Pokémon is that they allow each player to choose....battler, collector, completionist, or speed-runner....it's up to you.

Indeed! 🙂

I agree that Pokémon LGPE is my favourite Pokémon games on Switch. As you, I'm a Gen 1:er and almost everything Let's Go does clicks with me. I don't even have an issue with the one Joy-Con controller setup, though I do think they should have allowed Pro Controller to be used for people wishing to use them.

It does make playing it kinda unique with the one joycon, in a funny way. More options would’ve been great though. 😊

My top fave game is Arceus, which is tied with let's go Eevee and Pikachu. I like Arceus slightly more. The tie for the worst is Scarlet and Violet and bdsp

[@LuigiTheMetal64]

Let's Go and Legends: Arceus are the best on the Nintendo Switch. However, both will have you get the same Pokémon for the Nature you want.

[@BrainsAche]

Agreed, that was annoying :P

nice vid Personally disagree with your order, but that's half the fun 5. Let's go - can't stand the catching mechanic my arms die after 2 hours. 4. Legends - whilst it was a great spin on the mainline games, it was filled with a lot of nonsense tasks and heavily weighted towards using the golden Pokemon or Using 5 pp moves 40 plus times making it a chore. And damage amounts made no sense, Umbreon was the MVP of this game. 3. BDSP - Gave us more Pokemon earlier then the OG games did due to the underground, nothing of value was lost from missing diamond content, Battle Frontier would have been nice, but honestly only a small percentage of players ever actually used it. I also like the chibi style but do wish it was more of a clay animation chibi style with dynamic lighting. 2. SwSh - The first game where the story is focused on the spectacle and sport of battling, the main thing you do in the games, I like not having to save the world or fight evil teams, team yell is only a road block 2-3 times and then you beat piers and they stop appearing. The champion actually takes care of the region, unlike any other champion to date. 1. SV - glitches aside, great simple personal stories, fun and diverse roster, able to make multiple teams and level them up quickly after a few raids. Making a Competitive team has never been so easy. I played for 300 hours and only had the slow down in certain areas, many people who play also didn't experience many other glitches however i do understand they where a issue for some people but just not for me or any of my friends.

Many thanks for the feedback. Just read through your points and I can agree on many of them. I love the idea of clay animation for BDSP, that would have been amazing thinking about it! Have a great day! 🙂
