Pokemon Let’s Go Beginner Tips
Capture Everything
One of the biggest changes in Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee is in the way the leveling system works. Unlike in past games, there are no wild battle encounters here. You’ll still see random critters popping up in the environment, and you can run into them to trigger an encounter. However, you can’t fight them, and your only option is to capture them.
This makes things a little more streamlined, as you no longer have to worry about your own team members running out of PP for specific moves. Furthermore, whenever you catch a wild Pokemon, all your team members get shared experience. There are still trainer battles in Pokemon Let’s Go, but catching wild monsters is the best way to level up quickly.
To level up efficiently, you’ll want to look out for Pokemon with blue or red auras surrounding them. The blue aura means that particular creature is tinier than usual, while the red means it’s bigger than usual. You’ll get a size bonus multiplier for catching these creatures, in addition to bonuses you get from Nice, Great, and Excellent throws.
In addition to that, catching multiple of the same Pokemon in a row will also give you a bonus experience multiplier. So if you’re looking to level grind, keep capturing the same Pokemon over and over again.
