Pokémon Scarlet/Violet Switch OLED launches today

While Pokémon Scarlet & Violet are heading to retail on November 18th, 2022, you can pick up something extra special starting today. Nintendo has announced that the Pokémon Scarlet/Violet-themed Switch OLED is now available in stores! Please note that this is a hardware release only and does not include a copy of Pokémon Scarlet or Violet.

The Legendary Pokémon Koraidon and Miraidon are featured on the glossy front side of the white system’s dock, and a design inspired by the series’ iconic Poké Ball is featured on the back. The back of the system itself is adorned with special illustrations of the three Pokémon you can choose as your first partners in the game – Sprigatito, Fuecoco and Quaxly – along with illustrations of symbols players may recognize as they journey through the games. The Joy-Con controllers, which match the main colors of Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet, feature the school emblems of the Naranja Academy and Uva Academy that appear in the respective games.

The Nintendo Switch – OLED Model: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Edition system is available at retail and through the My Nintendo Store at a suggested retail price of $359.99.
