No pre-order and if I get it, it won't be any time soon. I just don't think LGPE is a $60 game frankly. $30 possibly but really it's $20 or less since what they're using is FRLG in 3D with a few new tweaks. Also Switch itself is not cheap, as is the PokeBall accessory. Unless they massively discount it, it's going to be some time before I even get one.
I'm curious whether they'll keep the Elite Four teams from ages past or insert Alolan variants. Lorelei, Agatha and Lance could all utilize at least one with Lorelei potentially using two. Unless you got a Fire or Fighting Type, Alolan Sandslash would be a pain to take down with that Ice/Steel combination. Alolan Ninetales, surprisingly, wouldn't be so hard with Steel doing x4(Hence Alolan Sandslash crushes it).
