 I bet you didn't know you can legally play any Pokemon game early. Here's how to do it. Step 1. Go to my.nintendo.com and select create account. Step 2. Enter all the account information and make sure to select Australia as your region. The Nintendo Switch is non-region locked, which means you can have games from any country or region and play them. Step 3. Add that account into your Nintendo Switch and login. Step 4. Go to the Nintendo eShop and purchase. You can do this with a credit card that is allowed to be used in Australia or by purchasing Nintendo eShop cards from Australia using reliable websites like G2A. Don't get scammed in this process. The safest way is finding an Australian friend that can get an eShop code for you. After you purchase the game, you can switch over to your main account and enjoy the game 16 hours earlier than the rest of the world during launch. Like and subscribe so you can tell someone
