Head below for more details and live pre-order links to the new Pokémon Nintendo Switch PowerA gear.
New Pokémon Nintendo Switch accessories from PowerA
We have gone hands-on with the new Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and you can get all of our impressions right here alongside coverage of the new HORI accessories and Jazwares starter Pokémon plushies themed after the latest pocket monster adventure. And while the new Pokémon Nintendo Switch accessories from PowerA aren’t necessarily inspired by Legend: Arceus, they do feature some of the most beloved characters in the franchise with an adorable Snorlax, Pikachu, and Eevee rendering for your collection.
Snorlax & Friends PowerA Enhanced Wired Controller
The new Pokémon Nintendo Switch accessories from PowerA are headlined by the Snorlax & Friends PowerA Enhanced Wired Controller. Following in line with the rest of the extensive family of Enhanced Wired controllers from the brand, you’ll find the same $28 MSRP along with the built-in 3.5mm headset jack, mappable gaming buttons around the back, and the officially licensed treatment here. Where it stands out from the pack is with a minty green/blue paint job and the aforementioned Snorlax, Pikachu, and Eevee rendering along the front:
Pre-orders are now live on the new Snorlax & Friends PowerA Enhanced Wired Controller at $27.99 with a March 17, 2022 release date.
Pokémon: Snorlax & Friends PowerA Protection Case
The new PowerA lineup also includes the Pokémon: Snorlax & Friends PowerA Protection Case compatible with the Nintendo Switch OLED model, standard edition, and the handheld-only Lite variant. It has also received the minty green treatment with grey and off-white trim, darker green zipper accents, and the Snorlax, Pikachu, and Eevee visage. It features a ”sturdy“ outer shell along with the rubberized handle, zippered mesh storage in the molded interior, and a built-in padded screen flap to keep your console safe. The same licensed seal of approval from Nintendo and the extended two-year warranty apply here as well.

The new Pokémon Nintendo Switch accessories from PowerA join the new mappable PDP controllers we featured last month. They are made to match the black and white model OLED Switch console with a similar aesthetic treatment across three different configurations including a translucent Rock Candy gamepad and a matching protective case.
