For nylig udtalte designeren bag Pokémon: Let's Go Pikachu!/Let's Go Eevee! at spillet er skabt til at være afslappende fremfor alt, og så sandelig lader dette til at være det mest tilgængelige kapitel i serien til dato. Alligevel ved vi nu, at spillet også tilbyder udfordringer til dem der ønsker det.
I et interview med Eurogamer bekræfter designer Kensaku Nebana, at spillet vil byde på såkaldte Master Trainer-karakterer, der er de absolutte mestre af specifikke Pokémon. Der er én Master Trainer for hver af de 151 Pokémon i spillet, og pointen er at du rejser rundt og tager deres titler fra dem efter historien er gennemført.
"The master trainiers - so these are trainers who are kind of the ultimate trainers of a specific Pokémon, so you will challenge them. So you will challenge them, and then get their title for that Pokémon, so you become the master of that Pokémon if you manage to beat them in battle."
"So for me, my favourite Pokémon is Psyduck, so I'd be training my Psyduck amazingly and then would challenge the Psyduck Master, and then gain the Psyduck Master title, and that's something you can put a lot of effort and a lot of time into, if I really wanted to create a challenge for myself - and these Master Trainers exist for all of the 151 Pokémon in the game, so you know, if you want to collect all of the titles then that's something you can really challenge yourself with."
Der lader altså til at være en del af tage sig til.
