"Pokemon Stars" To Land In Nintendo NX

Nintendo Switch might just be the luckiest and the first home console to recieve the version of the new "Pokemon Sun and Moon." According to Yibada, the gaming giant's hybrid console will reportedly receive a title named "Pokemon Stars."

Eurogamer reported that the franchise's developer Game Freak had been developing both the "Stars" and "Sun and Moon" versions at the same time. The Pokemon game released in the 3DS version of Nintendo last Nov. 18 brought a handful of gamers to get hooked in the game.

Pokemon "Stars" will have the same features and maps like the "Sun and Moon" version but it might include new bonuses that could make good use of the Switch's hardware. Same with the earlier version, the upcoming "Pokemon Stars" will also be set in Alola. The goal of the game is to explore the islands through fighting against the "totem" pocket monsters and searching for new and interesting Pokemon.
