Why Pokemon Let's Go Failed As A Remake

The reason for Pokémon Let’s Go being made was to get the Pokemon Go players to get into the mainline games. It did it’s job. So it’s a good remake in what its intention for being made was.

[@eli2210]

That’s by far the dumbest reason to have. Literally anyone who played Pokémon go literally already knows what Pokémon is. Only people would be literal children and even then the games have all been made for children yet adults and poke tubers are buying them the most. This is literally the biggest cope I’ve ever seen

[@fusionmasterable]

The main reason I hated let's go was the only mechanic in the wild is just throwing a bunch of pokeballs and you run out of money fast. Only time you battle is at a gym or a trainer and that was not fun

[@KingZoroark]

Exactly the catching mechanic completely broke the immersion of the game

[@nightwing179]

@@KingZoroarkthat’s because it was made using the Pokémon Go mechanics. It’s a Pokémon Go spin on a remake. If not for that, Let’s Go wouldn’t have existed. It was made to get the Pokémon Go players into the mainline games.

[@Entertainment0720]

I’m dealing with this right now on my first playthrough. I try to level everything up to the point of evolution to fill out the dex, but the only way to train/level up is to just go catching. Which means I’m usually broke because I have to spend all my money on pokeballs!

[@PokemonNerd265]

I agree with this, I despised the catching mechanic. I didn't learn a lot of traditional things about catching Pokémon until I got Sword and Shield.

[@sinisterpuddle6655]

These games are actually incredible remakes, they're just not for an entrenched Pokemon fans. If you stop looking at this as a mainline game and instead as an onramp to mainline games from people who were introduced to the series by Pokemon go

[@nickdentoom1173]

Gamefreak looks at the sales numbers Lets Go didn't fail as far as Gamefreak is concernt, as it outsold every single one of the remakes. Estimated revenue is also interesting to look at, as its a remake of yellow. However, Lets Go brings in the most revenue for remakes, the only one coming close is BDSP. Even looking at Lets Go and the Original Generation introduction games (So every first game in a generation), only 5 of them outsell Lets Go (With most of them being later generation, from gen 6 and onwards, the only oddity being Sun and Moon, who brought in less revenue and the other 2 are RBG and GS. So it might seem a fail for the fanbase, for Gamefreak it isn't.

[@chelinchan24]

I love Let’s Go. It’s my first ever Pokémon game and I’m deeply fascinated by it. It does a great job introducing me to the Pokémon world, I enjoyed so much that later I went to bought all the Pokémon games available on 3DS and Switch.

[@irepmyselfthatsall]

i genuinely enjoyed this game. i’m not a huge pokemon fan but i only really know the first 151 pokemon and that’s what i grew up with. i didn’t really play any other pokemon games with the newer pokemon. it was nostalgic for me.

[@MrTeamFoolish]

Let's Go seems more appealing to me now than current Scarlet and Violet, and BDSP.

[@KingZoroark]

I agree with you the games look nice and run pretty good compared to SV and BDSP.

[@Justvibing5831]

I love the design and I know it's mad easy but I think it's the perfect game for my girlfriend who has never played a pokemon game. I can shadow and walk around with her because 2 people can play at the same time and it makes for a very fun, casual, really nice looking pokemon game that takes place in Kanto which is where I would want to start her.

[@megamix5403]

Looking back, Pokemon Let's Go isn't a bad game at all. It just screams lost potential. As someone who grew up not only during the Pokemon boom of the 90s, but with the Yellow version, it saddens me that we have this misrepresentation of what made the original Yellow version awesome. So I'm totally with you on why it failed, you only have the original 151 Pokemon + Melmetal & Meltan, their Mega and Alolan forms and that's it. You don't get access to the other generations like FRLG did. Now, I'm not asking for a 1:1 remake a la BDSP, but at the same time, they could've improved on what made the originals so great, instead of making a weird Pokemon GO/mainline hybrid.

[@nickdentoom1173]

I mean... its fine it doesn't include Pokemon to other generations... however, they should have included cross-gen mons. Don't even have to introduce them from the start, but make them available post-game.

[@DeezNutzzzzzzzzzzz]

@@nickdentoom1173 it’s based off the ordinal game tho with a dash of new stuff. You can’t expect it to have more than what the original had.

[@leolordful]

I get why some many people don't like this but personally I disagree. But then again I recognize that I'm the weird one here. I'm just not interested in later gen pokemon... at all.

[@AviRoseDesign]

It seems like you're confusing rival with enemy. A rival is just someone you compete with to reach a shared goal. They don't have to be an antagonist, they just have to give you competition. You can prefer antagonistic rivals, but that doesn't mean a friendly rival "doesn't make sense"

[@KingZoroark]

Thanks for the correction 🤗

[@IIINo_Name]

Agreed, tho I also would have love a mean rival lol

[@kalelalves7118]

People will hate me, but i think the capture mechanic was actually very good.

[@killscreen7519]

It was a good way to bring Pokemon Go players to the main line series. Also I enjoyed it because grinding wild pokemon for low percentage encounters gets old fast and catch combos leading to rarer spawns was novel and more fun IMO.

[@bradnewsbear]

Yea me too I love when a lvl 20 pokemon breaks out of 15 ultra balls in a row, I think "wow this is so good, I can't wait to catch 30 more in a row so I can get more than 100xp at a time"

[@kalelalves7118]

Nah

[@LG-ro5le]

It was good but they should of added an option to use classic controls in the settings, the motion controls can get annoying

[@DF9000k]

[@jasonr8525]

The greatest remakes are obviously heartgold/soulsilver. I want a REMASTER of these remakes on switch. I do not trust them to re-remake gold/silver with the current formula. They'll just ruin it

[@Shinyprofjareth]

I just thought these games were just okay

[@pyregg1572]

My biggest gripes against these games were the catching mechanics, the cut of content like Abilities, Breeding and Items, and especially strictly limiting the Pokemon available to the original 151 (plus Meltan/Melmetal). They could've at least gone the ORAS route and allowed post-gen 1 evolutions like Crobat, Magnezone and Sylveon. I was especially not fond of the lack of wild battles since essentially the only times you "fought" wild Pokemon were Electrode, Snorlax and the Legendaries.

[@calvinlicuanan2803]

11:04 exactly the reason why i don't regret buying Let's Go. The biggest flaw of the game for me was that it was too easy as I literally soloed the game with my Eevee. However, the visuals, the art style, the way we could interact with our pokemon and how we could even ride them was worth it. I see Let's Go as an incredibly cute remake for noobs cheers

[@benedumC]

Let’s Go is my favorite modern remake. I mean nostalgia is huge, but challenge running it is a lot of fun.

[@ΓιάννηςΤσ]

1st problem of let's go. It's a remake of yellow edition. Not a remake of fire red They cut the sevii islands and the gambling In terms of gaming nowadays. It looked like a demo. It was a way to advertise the switch. 2nd problem was the catching mechanism. Which I personally like very much. It was refreshing and I felt I didn't have to grind so much as I used to. Believe me I love the old style more than anything, but it wasn't that bad. They could remake it like pokemon legends arceus. This is the way to go.

[@chrispember172]

i dont play switch pokemon games, i still play the older ones. There is a hell of a lot of charm from the animation and art style of the Gameboy Pokémon games. the new games feel wrong. Sometimes better graphics doesnt mean its better. Remeber how big johto felt as a kid? remember all the mysteries and urban legends like how to catch mew? it was all simple and just worked. The games werent hard but they werent a cake walk either. tons of people got stuck in victory road or the elite four. modern day games are just easy mode. I loved the sprites.

[@megamix5403]

One thing that still irks me is the fact that Meltan and Melmetal are considered Gen 7 when they can't even be transferred to USUM.

[@henriqueaugustus1761]

Visually, I believe Let's Go is one of the most beautiful games I've ever seen, but gameplay wise, it really is sad. I totally agree it needed a difficulty setting, because then it could be a game for newcomers and older players at the same time, and the lack of content that was already in FireRed and LeafGreen seems ever worst. I really hope that they take this feedback from the community and make a better remake when it comes to redo the 2nd generation again. Johto is considered by many the best region and I really hope they do justice for it.

I'm playing it currently and really enjoying it-it's relaxing and comforting. I was a huge fan of Emerald and Leaf Green back in the day (I even watched Pokémon on VHS!). Some people are complaining about not being able to battle wild Pokémon, but for me, that's a plus! I love going straight to the catch attempts. Also, being able to see wild Pokémon and avoid them without constantly needing to reuse Repel is a huge improvement. The graphics style is chef's kiss-the vibrant color palette and art style are just perfect! Has a cozy vibe and as an adult with a plethora of responsibilities. This game is a nice reprieve! Would recommend to people who last played a Pokémon game in 2005. This game is a proper prescription for your mental health.

[@SuperNinjaUK]

Tbf pokemon lets go was never designed with the average pokemon fan in mind, it was designed to give pokemon go players (a good percentage of that being young children) there first tradition experience, they did what they had to do (have the 2 most well known base evolution pokemon (pikachu and eevee) as cover pokemon, have the words pokemon and go everywhere, have connectivity with pokemon go, keep it easy because of the target audience, keeping the story and map simple and familiar, not adding heaps of post game like gen 5 onwards). Would of loved it though if they added gen 2 as an additional dlc for £/$10-15

[@ausommet]

4:40 - tbf, $40.00 USD in 2004 is the equivalent of $65.31 today because of inflation... so, more or less the same price

[@puredingo9348]

When I saw Let's Go games I was happy, the chance to play the Kanto Region on Switch was something I was looking forward to. I bought the game, played it for 20 minutes, turned it off, and put it in the drawer. I haven't bothered with it since, which is a shame for such a good-looking Pokemon game. If I wanted to play Pokemon Go I would have reinstalled it on my phone and played it there. They should have done a straight-up remake of Pokemon Go's catching system when you try to catch a wild Pokemon and return all the removed content. I still hope they will drop a DLC to fix what they have done, but I don't see that happening.

[@Ace_Burnz]

Pokémon Lets Go is a good game but it failed in so many ways and losing alot of features from the Original Fire Red and Leaf Green game here are my opinions of how lets go failed: 1. Lags sometimes even on the switch OLED (Low Performance) 2. Lack of Content including Post game content. 3. Lack of Pokemon apart from Alolan forms and Mew Meltan and Melmetal 4. Forcing you to play the game the way the makers want you to play it (Like what kind of remake will force you to challenge a gym with a cute pokemon? Game Freak didnt do it in the anime ir previous remakes so why would they do it in the game?) This shit has got me wondering about the future of pokemon remake whether it will be worse than this or better. The worse part is that this isnt the only game that got done dirty, BDSP got done dirtier too but Im saving that for another video. 5. Consistent and broken way of shiny hunting pokémon. I mean, just take a look, nobody can deny that this game is the easiest game to shiny hunt pokemon in the entire franchise. The game is good I guess but Game Freak could have added more. I recommend Pokémon Fire Red and Leaf Green games because you could get all or more you have been wanting from a remake. It is the best way to play through Kanto and I hope it gets added to Nintendo Switch Online as well as an Online Multiplayer feature for it which allows you to trade and battle pokémon.

[@borimayagamingworld]

As someone who's grown up w the franchise since RSE I prefer FR/LG yes it's a basic remake & it has its issues especially the dumb Force Evo cancels til Nat dex. But on the other Hand in retrospect Let's Go is a fun game, I've played every game in the series & they're 2 VERY different games meant for dif audiences. Let's just appreciate the games that are fully made & not buggy messes like BDSP/SV

[@garchompelago]

I have played at least 1 or both versions of each of the paired games from Gens 1 to Gen 9. I also played Legends Arceus. I never miss out on any main series Pokemon games aside from the Lets GO games. I skipped it. I cant imagine spending $60 on a game that us vastly inferior to a GBA game (FRLG) when it runs on a significantly mote powerful console. LGPE is a blatant cash grab meant to take advantage of our nostalgia and it worked. But I aint falling for it. I saw how lackluster its contents are. Also the $50 paywall for Mew is like the icing on top as to why I hate LGPE. -No held items when FRLG had it. -No sevii islands thus making its postgame almost non-existant. -Megas are available but due to the lack of abilities, Megas are basically useless -Abilities were removed when FRLG had it -153 Pokemon only when FRLG had 300+ I cant find one good reason to drop $60 on a blatant cash grab. The only way I would play LGPE is if it gets released as a 1 week free trial for NSO subscribers (Pokken Tournament got released as a Game Trial for NSO subscribers but I doubt they would do the same for LGPE). But overall, aint no way im wasting money on this trash. LGPE sucks. Btw BDSP sucks too. But at least it has more features and content than LGPE! Goddamn im scared on the future of remakes. They are turning to just cash grabs now. Back then when remakes get announced, you'd expect additional features/mechanic that the original one didnt have. Nowadays its the same shit with a different coat of paint. I bought BDSP(Brilliant Diamond only. Not both) because I was hoping to get something new out of it but alas, there was none. At least I succesfully shiny hunted Shaymin, Darkrai and Arceus in my Brilliant Diamond. Gotta make that $60 worthwhile somehow. ☹️

[@christianmckee2116]

You summed up why I consider LGPE both bad remakes and bad games.

[@vorteco7692]

I bought it thinking it would be Pokemon. It really isn't even a Pokemon game to me. I can't even battle Pokemon in the wild. Where is the Safari Zone? It forces me to have certain types of Pokemon at certain times. It isn't for me.

Great video man, this is a topic I've wanted to make a video on for so long but never got around to it! Let's go had some things going for it but it felt like they made so many weird decisions and squandered it.

[@KingZoroark]

Thanks and I agree 100% with you Let’s go had some potential but gamefreak missed the mark with a lot of the decisions they made.

[@HansAlRachid]

I refuse to think of these games as remakes in the first place - in my mind these are spin-offs. Even pretty damn decent spin-offs insofar as they make for a different experience that successfully simplifies the core Pokémon concept for people with extremely short attention spans. Certainly helps that the Let's Go! games actually have pretty damn good visuals. Legends: Arceus was kind of the continuation of this concept to me in that both of these games are primarily about watching cute Pokémon waddle around and then catching them. Which is fine! But it's also not what the series is about in my mind.

[@Chowder908]

Controversial opinion but let's go is very mid... It's basically just DLC for Pokemon GO

[@zachthepokemaster9045]

Let’s go was good for what it was, but the exaction itself was a bit…😬😬

[@nightstriker1645]

[@Kofideveloper]

So I feel lost in between both what you’re saying because I agree with you in specific things. Like for example I do think the rival being a jerk to us was motivational for the player. I agree that the game was incredibly easy to get done. I was a fan of the graphics and the work that they put into the game, but I do wish they would let us battle the other wild Pokémon because that also was a part of training these Pokémon to begin with.😅 After learning just the basics to game design I know why they didn’t include the best things about it. Coding and debugging could be hell. I want more storytelling with more people to battle, more expeditions, and don’t change rivals anymore. I want Gary back in the game to the extreme and make him a jerk. And let me battle wild pokemon!

[@tylerhornbrook8413]

Nintendo sacrificed yellow versions possibly only remake into a Pokémon go game and i honestly hate it even more so since yellow version was my first ever gameboy game and my childhood they should have stuck to the original formula of the game with the 3d graphics

[@Myjacob99]

As someone who played them all, I perfer lets go just because it’s the best looking and you get xp share by default so I don’t gotta grind every Pokémon

[@EPS5000]

The “Let’s Go” games are the first time Pokémon Yellow got a remake. It gets added points for that. A remake of Yellow was long overdue.

[@vincenzorafaelsuarez6644]

I think this is the reason why Genwunners appreciated these games. They are 3D improved and Blinded with nostalgia. No abilities, no natures maybe, don't care about Mega Evolutions without abilities or Fairy types and Steel types or Alola forms. Trace is something else as Blue returns. Very few wild battles and catching Pokemon mechanics as simple as the Genwunners' original games.

[@christianmckee2116]

For how much Let's Go lacked in content compared to every previous remake (as well as doing scummy stuff like the cruel Game Corner tease and locking Mew behind a $50 accessory), these games should've been $20 at most. Also, LGPE should've been one version because Yellow was one version. I cannot overstate enough how greedy it was that they split a $30 single version Gameboy game into two-version $60 Switch games. The Rescue Team remake had the right idea turning Red and Blue Rescue Team into one definitive DX version. And despite LGPE's main goal of trying to draw players from Pokemon GO into the main series, it was two years too late because GO's popularity had declined significantly after its initial hype in 2016. So trying to cash in on GO's success at that point made LGPE doomed on arrival. It didn't help that they lacked a lot of the Pokemon that GO added in before LGPE even came out, and LGPE straight up couldn't connect to the other Gen 7 games at all, so Meltan and Melmetal couldn't be transferred over to either SM or USUM. This also meant that these games would be the first ones to implement the infamous "Dexit", making them look really bad in retrospect. Anyways, there are good things that LGPE does provide like the good 3D character models and the way Ride Pokemon were handled, but I have way too many problems with them to consider them acceptable by AAA Switch standards or even the standards set by every previous Pokemon remake. Regardless, I loved watching your video and you brought up a lot of good points. Great job and I would love to hear more of your opinions on other games in the future. Ciao! 👋

[@MarvinPowell1]

Pokemon Let's Go was literally just a cheap, barebones cash-grab to attract Pokemon Go players and to see what's the bare minimum they could charge full price with, on a Switch console. The game sucks as a remake and is really nothing more than a Remaster to entice Go players, and people bought it by the millions. I don't like the concept of the game at all, ir the fact you can't even play as Red in it, but it sold lots of copies, even mainline players bought it, and they put absolutely zero effort into the game beyond the art style. So I wouldn't call it a failure of a remake, but I do agree it's not a good one (and yet ironically, is still probably the best Pokemon Switch title; maybe tied with the over-hyped Legends Arceus.)

I think let’s go is its own thing to be honest if they want to do a remake of Pokémon yellow, which they did and they really didn’t wanna expand on the areas like they did with fire red and leaf green, which is very good in that case, then they did it the best way that they could. There’s a lot they could’ve added, but since they wanted to make a simple yellow remake while building upon a lot of current features like importing from Pokémon GO and better animations I think they did a pretty good job. Adding all that extra stuff breaks away from the story and the objective I think the game was pretty much for newcomers who wanted something easy and not really made for all those people that played all the old games.

[@wolfzend5964]

I feel like the Lets Go games aren't meant to be remakes but rather are supposed to be a bridge between Pokemon Go players and Pokemon main series players. The Lets Go games are alright, not the worst we got out of Pokemon. Not necessarily meant to be the Fire Red and Leaf Green, but a Pokemon Yellow brought into the modern age with Pokemon Go compatibility.

I won't mind a 2nd gen remake like let's go Pikachu. But drop the go tactic of having to catch every pokemon for exp. But I wish a second Gen remake comes out soon.

[@MannahSonne]

So I just save my money for orderering Pokemon sword instead of this.

[@fanmadeendings]

Bad take. SwSh is incredibly basic even compared to the level design of gen 1. Hope you're having fun anyway.

[@MannahSonne]

@@fanmadeendings well every pokemon games are basic because they are meant for children, welp that's why I am playing MH world Iceborne or Dark Souls if I want some more action. Gen 1 hands down is one of the best pokemon games but god damn I am playing it eternally since childhood. I am quite tired of seeing Ratatas and Kanto map ffs and I wanna see something new and fresh. Yeah Sword and Shield is quite basic but I am not its target demographic so I need to respect as what it is. Now I got some feeling of regret because I did not buy Violet instead.

Using CPI inflation calculator $40 for FRLG in 2004 is equivalent to $54.44 in 2018 so the price comparison is not as severe as you present.

[@TherealGhostwav]

I liked let's go but what ruined it was their stat mechanic

[@jamiedejesus]

I WANT A SILVER/GOLD remake with the aesthetic of Sword/Shield

[@colinjackson-xn9ro]

Sword and shield, and scarlet and violet seems more like 2 steps forward, 10,000 steps back.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say pokemon needs a drastic overhaul of the battle system, the "level" system, gyms, wild pokemon encounters, and trainer battles. I think pokemon shouldn't have "levels" any more, and should have master stars, from zero to five stars to show how well trained they are. The moves that pokemon use should have mastery stars corresponding to how many times the pokemon has used the move, starting with zero and going to five. Pokemon should unlock new moves by gaining master stars or by their moves gaining in mastery stars. For example, a pikachu learns thunderbolt when thundershock reaches 3 mastery stars, a pikachu learns quick attack when its tackle reaches 3 mastery stars, a pikachu learns "thunder tackle" when its quick attack and thunderbolt both are 3 mastery stars. I would also remove PP, and give pokemon "stamina", the moves they use reduce their stamina, stronger moves cost more stamina.

I'm not gonna lie I'm just doing it to complete my national deck. As long as the game is playable and doesn't bore me to death I have no issues

[@FriendlyNeighborhoodNoob]

Honestly, the Pokemon catching aspect is my only throw-off. I understand that it was made to appeal to the Pokemon Go players, but it just sucks in my opinion They could have either kept the Pokemon catching aspect intact, or just make up for it in some game-changing way

[@bradnewsbear]

I had to reinstall this week to add Tangela Goldeen Seaking Farfetch'd Cubone and Marowak to my living dex- what a nightmare, that task should have been incredibly easy and fast but no, it took three hours and over 120 ultra balls to catch and then level them up enough to evolve respectively. I was so happy when I was done, I uninstalled immediately and I will never play it again, ever. I laughed so hard that the clods who made this game made me swim back and forth in a tiny 4×1 water patch until a goldeen appeared, and tangela wasnt much better- just run around in circles on this 3x3 tiny island and good luck avoiding all the pokes you dont want in this little phone booth of an island. I would rather wipe my save data and hardcore nuzlocke SV than play through this awful mess again

The very weird part about Pokémon let’s go Pikachu and Eevee is that give it the remake status kind of feels wrong these games are really arbitrary sequels yes I know that sounds weird but that’s because it actually is the case for this game

[@gustavopessoa9792]

This game is a trash, i’m trying to play this but this game disrepect everything Previously established on the series, some pokemons They should be weak against mine, my ground Pokemon got defeated by a poison Pokemon, i mean, the poison have the weak against the ground, wtf a pokemon who should be weak againt my type is defeating me with 1 fucking hit, thats unfair, unlogic and stupid.

[@MrVlodato]

Nah this is cap, first off lets go was the first actual 3d pokemon game, even the mainline SwSd wasnt fully 3d in the whole game, first game with encounters in 3d and not just random. This is arguably the best way to enjoy a kanto game. Switch pokemon games go PLA>SV>LetsGo>SwSd>BdSp. Also personally whe using the joycon or pokeball plus, the catching mechanic was refreshing compared to the same old boring wild encounters for the last 25 years, the game was meant to be played on a couch with a wireless controller, not on your switch lite. Pokemon is the kind of game you make as difficult as you want. You are not forced to use eevee or pikachu.

[@AtebitAcorn]

Tbh this is an A+, except they ruined it with stealth rock and Melmetal and pay to win with Mew.

[@ArtskyAnimation]

I disagree but you're completely right! Edit: erica will actually accept all pokemon and think the pokemon is cute because i showed a melmetal and charizard on my other Playtrough

[@GXtera]

the only thing i liked was the art style and following pokemon. would love a 3d remake of gold/silver in the visual style of lets go but soul silver is hard to top, its probably the best pokemon game and gamefreak seem to fuck upp all the remakes these days

[@balamstudios]

The point of lets go is to be a cashgrab so that pokemon go players can get meltan and melmetal
