Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee are retellings of 1998's Pokémon Yellow Version, but with some twists. While the world of Let's Go and many of the story beats are familiar, some features are unique to these games. That includes finding and battling the Legendary Trainers, Red, Blue and Green.
While many are familiar with Red and Blue, because they recently appeared in Pokémon Sun and Moon, their reveal in Let's Go was a big surprise. Even more surprising was the inclusion of Green, a trainer only seen in the Pokémon manga.
Although having Red, Blue and Green in the games are neat Easter Eggs they can be hard for new Pokémon trainers to defeat. So if you're ready to take on some of the best Pokémon trainers ever, follow this guide.

Out of the three Legendary Trainers, Blue shows up the most often in Let's Go. Trainers will run into him quite a bit in the story, from Pewter City to after receiving your eighth Gym Badge in Viridian City.
However, you can battle Blue after he takes over the Viridian City Gym once Giovanni disbands Team Rocket. After defeating the Elite Four, head back to the Gym and face Blue and his team of Pokémon whose levels range from 66-68.
