Best pre-order deals for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet on the Nintendo Switch

Pocket some ’mons with these offers on both titles

Catch them all with these excellent deals (The Independent)

A pair of new Pokémon games is coming to the Nintendo Switch console later this year, each with new and returning monsters for players to catch.

The two games will see players transported to a new region with two new professors, called Sada and Turo. From the trailers already released, we know players will get to choose from three all-new starter Pokémon – called Sprigatito, Fuecoco and Quaxly, which are grass, fire and water types, respectively.

Fans of the pocket monster-catching franchise will already be very familiar with how these games are released. Starting with Red and Blue back in 1996, Pokémon games are always launched in pairs, with Scarlet and Violet set to continue that trend.

As such, these Nintendo Switch games will be available to buy individually when they go on sale later in 2023, but also as a steelcase bundle, if you have a friend or family member you want to share the game with, or just fancy collecting them all yourself.
