Two of the biggest Nintendo Switch titles this year with Pokémon: Let’s Go Pikachu and Pokémon: Let’s Go Eevee are releasing on November 16, and both titles will be available in exclusive $400 hardware bundles. Now, according to Pokémon dedicated forum Serebii, the website says that there might be a potential collaboration brewing between Pokémon and Tamagotchi for a new "Eevee x Tamagotchi" handheld digital pet.

A leaked promotional sheet from Japanese forums and Twitter highlight the collaboration between both brands, as the purported Eevee Tamagotchi Nano comes in two different shells, one in a standard brown Eevee edition and a "colorful friends" version in pink. Depending on how you take care of the nano pet, Eevee evolves into one of its eight evolutionary forms. It also comes in two different outfits like Team Rocket and Ditto Eevee.

Nintendo has not issued an official announcement regarding these details, as news of a Pikachu version has not been revealed either, as it's suggested that the Pokémon x Tamagotchi collaboration would coincide with the release of both Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! on the Nintendo Switch.
