Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness is finally coming to Nintendo Switch Online this March. Since it’s a GameCube game, it’s only available to Nintendo Switch 2 users.

The game was announced for Nintendo Switch Online when the GameCube Classic was first announced last April. However, a release date for the game has not been revealed at this point, and fans have been anticipating the game’s arrival for about a year. Pokémon Colosseum was also introduced at that time, but a release date for that game has not been announced today, and we don’t know when it will arrive on the service.

Pokémon XD: Dark Gale was first released on the GameCube in 2005 and was the successor to Pokémon Colosseum in the same region. The game is a single-player 3D adventure in which players travel across the Ore region to battle, capture, and purify Shadow Pokémon. Pokémon XD was also compatible with Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald at the time, allowing players to transfer Pokémon between games and use them to battle in multiplayer battle mode.

When it first launched, we gave Pokemon XD a 6.8/10 rating and said, “Even for players who haven’t experienced the original GameCube design, Pokemon XD has its own merits.” [Colosseum]but as a sequel, this one doesn’t have nearly the same “oomph” as the original. ”

Unfortunately, not only is no date set for Colosseum, but Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal, Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald are still not available on Nintendo Switch Online. The closest we’ve gotten is the Switch ports of FireRed and LeafGreen, but it’s not yet clear how or if they’ll be compatible with XD.
