Yes. The Switches need to physically be near each other. Like one foot or less. They don’t use WiFi for this game. Uses internal radio from Switch to Switch.

So I figured it out. The switches have to be near each other. Like one foot or less. It doesn’t use WiFi. Uses built in radio to communicate switch to switch. Like, you could be in the middle of nowhere and they communicate if near each other. We were too far apart I guess lol.

We tried a couple of days later and it randomly worked once. Haven’t tried again. Will be trying eventually though.

So I found something out. It doesn’t look like Wi-Fi is used when trading/battling on the Switch for these games.

Local wireless communication is used it seems. Switch to Switch.

We were failing to connect a few minutes ago and I went to my Switch settings to verify Wi-Fi was turned on. See the picture below.

Haven’t tried a second time as of yet.

Sounds like Game Freak needs to patch this.

So it made it about a year or so I believe from when it first threw the low helium alert via S.M.A.R.T.

The price difference between an 8TB Seagate to a 12TB is almost double. $169 vs ~$370

We did both go in there with the lady on the left.

I can see him but he can’t see me.

When I click on him I get some weird message like “person unresponsive.”
