For longtime fans of Nintendo and the Pokémon franchise, you’ll recognize the familiar face of this new Nintendo Switch Lite from its similar-themed DS Lite which released back in 2006 when the original games came out.

Just like its predecessor, the upcoming handheld takes on a full gray construction with both Dialga and Palkia depicted on the back in a tasteful gold and silver outlining.

Available from 5th November 2021 (the game is launching on 19th), this more subdued livery joins the colourful roster of Switch Lites currently available, which includes Yellow, Turquoise, Grey, Coral and Blue, not to mention the previous Pokémon Switch Lite, the Zacian and Zamazenta Edition console.

It will feature a black exterior along with designs of the two legendary Pokemon on its back.
