Early pre-release: Switch testing of this build has only just started, with no results yet, and there's been no full playthrough. Back up your saves.

For Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! 1.0.2 with Atmosphère. Build ID C208DB6A4EF4361F28B8402BE0F7CD9A.

Install: remove any other wild battle mods, unzip to the root of your SD card, then fully close and restart the game. The zip adds /atmosphere/exefs_patches/the_better_lets_go/, replacing an earlier version if you have it.

New in this version:

  • Every game language: "Enable Wild Battle" and "Level-Up Trade Evolution" are translated into Japanese (kana and kanji), English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Korean, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese. The patch follows the language the game is using.
  • Japanese support: both options now appear in Japanese, and the Hiragana/Kanji row works as normal again. "Enable Wild Battle" has its own row in every language, and your saved choices carry over.
  • Patch format: the patch is now IPS32, to make room for the text. If the patch seems to do nothing, please report your Atmosphère version.

Translations: written by AI, using the game's own terms and Pokémon names, and not checked by native speakers. Corrections are very welcome, and they all live in tools/option_text.py.

Also included since v0.1.0, and also still being tested: the "Level-Up Trade Evolution" option (Level 50, Off by default) and the intro skip on +, −, A, B, X or Y.

Please test:

  • Opening Options and scrolling every row: 13 in Japanese, 12 in other languages. A crash here is the most likely problem.
  • Each language's wording, and any text that's cut off or shows as blank boxes.
  • In Japanese, switching between kana and kanji.
  • Switching both options, then restarting the game to check they saved.
  • Each trade evolution at Level 50, canceling with B, and with the option Off.
  • Whether one A press on the intro also starts the game.
  • A wild battle win and a ball catch, since the earlier test results are from older builds.

Known gaps: shiny and Special Encounters are untested, and there's been no full playthrough. Stay offline.
