Ever wondered how to link your Nintendo Switch to Pokémon GO? Let’s dive into that today!

Connecting your Nintendo Switch to Pokémon GO can make your gaming experience even cooler. So, how do you do it?

Quick Steps to Connect

First things first, you’ll need both your Nintendo Switch and your mobile device handy. Ensure that Pokémon GO is installed on your mobile device and that you have either Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! or Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! on your Switch.

On your Switch, head to the settings in either of the Pokémon Let’s Go games, select “Connect to Pokémon GO” and follow the on-screen instructions. On your mobile, open Pokémon GO, go to Settings, and then select “Nintendo Switch” to establish the connection. That’s it!

Bringing the Worlds Together

Connecting these two allows you to transfer Pokémon from Pokémon GO to your Let’s Go game, opening up new gameplay possibilities and rewards. It’s a unique feature that brings the best of both worlds together, letting you enjoy Pokémon in more ways than one.

Not only does this enhance your gaming experience, but it also adds a layer of excitement to catching Pokémon in the real world, knowing they can join your adventure on the Switch.
