For a kid that age, probably Let's Go, but you could also try Sword or Shield. At that age, the main barrier to Sword/Shield is the Wild Area, as I could see a kid that age getting a bit "lost" as to where to go, whereas Let's Go is a much more linear game. 4. BurrStreetX. 7. PokĆ©mon Red/Blue/Yellow. The original PokĆ©mon games might not look like much nowadays (theyā€™re not even in color!), and they can feel downright simplistic compared to later games, but these Best switch game? Pokemon Legends Arceus. Pokemon Letā€™s Go Pikachu/Eevee. Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl. Pokken (Pokemon Tekken) New Pokemon Snap. Pokemon Scarlet/Violet. Pokemon Sword/Shield 2 Share EXGShadow ā€¢ 9 mo. ago Scarlet/Violet > Arceus > New Pokemon Snap > Sword/Shield > Let's Go All the ones on switch are pretty easy. Diamond and pearl are really hard at the very end only for no reason. Sword and shield and Scarlet F Violet are easy. Scarlet and Violet are open ended which is fun but also might be confusing for a younger kid. Other than Pokemon, Mario games are fun for everyone. I agree with u/Screeching-Pumpkin that the "best" nuzlocke experience usually tends to be whatever region you like more or are more knowledgeable of. But if you want a more definite answer, Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green for a fairly standard introduction to Pokemon Nuzlockes, the Unova or Hoenn games for a more difficult experience and I'd say Alpha Sapphire is the earliest main game Iā€™ve played aside from a little bit of Yellow and Silver, so I canā€™t say how any of the Switch games fair as traditional experiences. As far as I can tell, though, BDSP added more than most people give it credit for, but not enough to buy unless youā€™ve either never played Gen 4 (like me before BDSP If you really really REALLY wanna play gen 1, pokemon yellow. FRLG is a better kanto playthrough. LGPE provides an even better and more modern experience if you are fine with no random battles, instead you have pokemon go catching mechanics. Personally im not fond of pokemon go catching so FRLG. 2. Since brilliant diamond came out, I have played brilliant diamond, Pokemon white, White 2, Mono dragon run on X, Flying mono run on Omega ruby, and pokemon Arceus. a playthrough of Ultra sun then played Corromon, Nexomon, Pokemon scarlet, Pokemon Bushido and Pokemon Unbound lol. It can be done especially on emulators where you can speed things up. LjVk2.
