I think it is ridiculous how rarely Pokémon games go on sale, so seeing prices actually drop by 25 to 33% is enough to get my attention. As of April 28, Woot has a surprisingly solid Nintendo Switch Pokémon sale, with classics like Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!marked down for a limited time.

I want to be clear: these are not leftover filler titles. In my opinion, every one of these games still holds up today, and they are about to get even better with Nintendo Switch 2 on the way. Nintendo has already confirmed that Pokémon Legends Z-Awill support 60 FPS upgrades on the new hardware. While nothing else is officially confirmed, I think it is a safe bet that older titles will load faster and play smoother on Switch 2.

Pokémon Brilliant Diamondis sitting at $42.99, Pokémon Shining Pearlis down to $41.99, and Pokémon Legends: Arceusis $44.99. Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!is $39.99, which is about as low as it gets for anything with Pikachu or Eevee on the cover.

If you grew up playing Diamond and Pearl, the remakes stay true enough to the originals without feeling like a museum tour.
