GN Version 5.0

Pokemon GO players have noticed that they're having trouble connecting to Pokemon: Let's GO on Switch, and it seems the reason is the most recent Switch firmware update. For whatever reason, Version 7.0.0 of the Switch firmware is causing problems for connecting to Pokemon GO. While a fix is being worked on, Niantic has offered a simple solution.

Trainers, we have confirmed that the latest update to the Nintendo Switch is affecting the ability to connect to Pokémon GO. Disconnecting Pokémon GO and restarting your Switch by holding the power button for 3 seconds should allow you to reconnect.
