    Hell yeah. Really showing what this new Switch OS is capable of.

  3. Mightydog2904

    Thats it, best console of all time(totally factually correct and unbiased take here)

  4. Nudist-On-Strike

    Hmm am I about to drop $800CAD to have Mudkip as my icon?

  5. ohbyerly

    This is honestly unironically something I’m looking forward to lol

  9. maxxus2

    oh its so over for yoshi as my pfp, i can have EEVEE??

  12. IPreferBagels2

    Incredible, this kind of thing would be truly impossible on the Switch 1’s hardware

  13. ArkhaosZero

    Honestly interesting to me.

    I know we got some Sarlet Violet profile icons, but being incorporated into the base selection is new. Pokemons typically been in a weird spot with Nintendo in terms of how its utilized. While the franchise is Nintendo owned, its not EAD, so you dont see Pikachu and Charizard casually show up in Mario Kart or Nintendoland or whatever. Theres very little crossover, even with auxiliary features/services, with Smash being the big exception.

    But its also odd, because Kirby is in a similar spot ownership wise, yet we see Kirby freely used. Pokemons the most popular thing ever, so youd THINK theyd want branding incorporated everywhere with Nintendo, but its oddly sparce. Ive always been curious as to why that was…

    I wish I didn’t have a Mr. Saturn icon because now there’s no reason to ever change mine ever again

  15. javibre95

    Why ? I already have almighty Clodsire, I don’t need another one

  16. Spooky_Blob

    So something the switch can have but probably won’t, nice…

  18. BenHDR

    Hell yeah.

    Pikachu, Eevee, Bulbasaur, Squirtle & Charmander for me and my family, and then a couple of Pokéballs for the guest accounts.

    Would’ve loved Meowth and Jigglypuff too, but this is cool.

  21. Juliko1993

    Are they gonna be on the original Switch as well?

  22. PuppetDoc

    I need that Squirtle and Rowlet icon in my life.

  24. Hateful_creeper2

    Glad that it’s happening rather than it just being limited like with Scarlet and Violet’s icons.

  25. OctoDADDY069

    Im actually shocked there was none on the switch before now

  26. Turbulent_Yard_2215

    I have to buy a new console to just put a new png on my profile

  27. Williekins

    Finally, I can have an Oshawott profile pic.

  28. IceFire0518

    Friendship ended with Mii, Now Tepig is my User Icon

  29. shiki-ouji

    This must be why they never added new themes to Switch 1!

  30. Sheeeeepyy

    Just want my NSO ones to carry over I didn’t do a whole thing just to get the Mother 3 ones to lose em.

    Yes I know that was a choice I made but they weren’t going to give me Boney in America and I wasn’t about to let it happen.

  32. GraysonQ

    Do we know if current NSO user icons will be usable on Switch 2?

  33. Razorblade7

    Fine, I’ll change my user icon to Mudkip.

  35. Onyxthegreat

    I love how it’s not a modern version, but the original Sugimori drawing of the Poké Ball.

  38. thatwitchguy

    Also 36 fe icons for each of the locallised lords (-alm and ephraim)

  39. chaobreaker

    They already provided Pikachu, Eevee and the gen 9 starters from redeeming coins on Scarlet Violet NSO icons. Really funny how you could end up having duplicate icons.

  40. Nintotally

    **PLEASE** add the ability to mix and match profile pics and backgrounds from different packs. PLEASE.

  41. koteshima2nd

    Oh that’s pretty cool. Gotta represent the 3rd gen with a Mudkip

  42. ipsen_castle

    So all the Starter Pokémon and a Poké Ball

  45. MrPerson0

    FYI, Pikachu and Eevee fall under “Starter Pokemon” since that’s what they were in Yellow and the Let’s Go games.

  46. agoogua

    Look at how dumb Charmander looks, like he has no jaw. Imagine seeing a side profile of that depiction of Charmander, ugh.

  47. silverscreemer

    Why do they think we only like the starters?

  48. Spelling_bee_Sam

    I’m going to be mudkip!!! Now to buy a switch 2

  49. sleutherst

    I’m glad they haven’t abandoned adding default switch pfps it’s been forever since the last new ones before the recent Mario updated ones
