Like [[Generation III]] and [[Generation V]] before it, Generation VIII can be considered something of a "reboot" of the franchise. Released immediately after [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|remakes]] of the [[Generation I]] game {{game|Yellow}}, Generation VIII is the first generation not to include every previously available Pokémon in its code, the first generation to include paid DLC in lieu of an additional game, and the first to be released entirely on a home console system, the [[Nintendo Switch]].
