Partner Powers

Learn how Pikachu and Eevee's unique Partner Powers work in Pokemon Let's Go! Discover how Happiness affects damage and how to get stat boosts.

Hey there! So, you've probably noticed your partner Pokémon, Pikachu or Eevee, has some pretty cool special moves called Partner Powers. These aren't just for show; they can really turn the tide in battle!

Let's break down how they work, because it's a bit different from your usual attacks.

Pikachu's Partner Power: Pika Power

Pikachu's signature move is Pika Power. It's a Special attack, and here's the neat part: its damage isn't fixed. It actually gets stronger the happier your Pikachu is! Plus, it's guaranteed to hit, so you don't have to worry about missing.

Eevee's Partner Power: Veevee Volley

Eevee has its own version called Veevee Volley. This one is a Physical attack, and just like Pika Power, its damage scales with how happy Eevee is. And yup, you guessed it – it never misses either!

What Happens When Your Partner Isn't Battling?

This is a super important trick to know! If you manage to trigger a Partner Power while your partner Pokémon (Pikachu or Eevee) isn't actually in the battle, something awesome happens. Instead of attacking, your current Pokémon in battle gets all its stats boosted by one stage. Think of it as a free stat buff for your active fighter!

So, keep an eye on your partner's Happiness – the happier they are, the more powerful their special moves become, and you can even use their powers strategically for a stat boost when they're not in the fight!
