Best Switch and Switch 2 accessories for Pokémon superfans

This year marks the 30th anniversary of Pokémon, and the franchise shows no signs of slowing down. Pokémon Pokopia became the first major Nintendo Switch 2 hit of 2026, selling more than 2.2 million copies in just four days, and that console exclusivity has driven a surge in Switch 2 sales.

For fans who want to add a touch of cute, colorful style to a Switch or Switch 2, there are plenty of options. Controllers range from PowerA's officially licensed wireless alternatives to smaller wired models. PowerA’s Pokémon controllers are fully compatible with Switch games and come in six variations; the smiling Pikachu design with purple accents costs $39.99, a cheaper option beside the rarely discounted Switch Pro Controller retailing for $79.99.

For younger players or people with smaller hands, PowerA’s little yellow wired controller is a lightweight choice for tabletop or docked play at $13.97. Cases cover a wide price range.
