I don't have a switch but my friend does and although she loves the Pokémon tcg she's never played a Pokémon video game so I'm looking at getting her a Pokémon game to play, any advice appreciated

honestly, let's go eevee is what i have the craving to go back and replay every so often. the core gameplay of catching pokemon is fun, it motivates me to complete the pokedex, and shiny hunting doesn't take forever.

Let's go Pikachu is considerably cheaper in my region, would the gameplay be much the same do you think?

Nevermind I just looked it up, they are remakes of earlier Pokémon games which suggests to me that they're quite reliably good games

Oh, forgot the Let's GO games in my other comment. They are the same game, just your starter is either Pikachu or Eevee depending on what version you get. They are a sort of retelling of Red/Blue/Yellow. I had fun with it, but it is pretty much just Pokemon Yellow HD.

Totally agree here, being yellow HD. Also can complete the Pokédex with Pokémon go trading from the phone go

This is how I for the very first time had a complete Kanto dex
