Per Nintendo, this Nintendo Switch Lite that features Dialga and Palkia is the first version of the system to have a metallic gray body with black buttons. It then has a silver and gold line art of the Legendary Pokemon.

The MSRP retail value of the Nintendo Switch Lite is $199.99, and it releases on November 5, 2021. Pre-orders in the US appear to be no longer available for the console with only a couple of days left.

There are still some retailers with pre-orders for the device in the UK, but there are a handful with a higher price than its MSRP value because of how popular the Nintendo Switch Lite Dialga & Palkia Edition has proven to be.

If you are in an area of the world where the console cannot be pre-ordered, you'll have to buy it directly on November 5. This could be tough if there seems to be a large volume of buyers.

The following retailers are your best bet when it comes to buying the Dialga & Palkia Edition Nintendo Switch Lite:

• Nintendo
• Amazon
• Target
• Walmart
• Best Buy
• GameStop
• Very (UK)
• Game (UK)
• Smyths (UK)
• Argos (UK)
• Currys (UK)
• John Lewis (UK)

Hopefully, these aren't as hard to come by as some recent console releases such as the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The popularity of Pokemon these days may result in just that, however.

Keep your eyes peeled at the above retailers on November 5 and try your best to get your hands on the Nintendo Switch Lite before Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl release on November 19, 2021.
