You're fine, the connectivity is to trade pokemon back and forth and IIRC it's not unlocked until a few gyms in. You'll have trouble completing your pokedex in all likelihood and definitely won't get Melmetal but that's about it.

Meltan is a good squishy boy but I think I can wait until gen 8

So the candies are for EVs, does the game have the EV reset berries too?

I know there’s a place where you can change Natures, when do you get access to that?

What is there to do in the postgame?

Can you get ‘mon like Crobat, Blissey, Umbreon, etc. after the Elite 4 like in FR/LG?

Candies don't give EVs. They're their own thing and, as far as I understand, unlimited, you can give +200 to every single stat, so there's no reason to reset them. EVs do exist in the game's code, but like abilities, can't be accessed at all, and likely are only there for compatibility with Bank/later games.

I didn't hear that Natures thing at all but if that's true it better stick with the series forever.

Postgame-wise, I'll spoiler tag this for obvious reasons, you can rematch every Gym Leader but Giovanni. Giovanni is instead replaced by Blue, linking the games to GSC and confirming Let's Go happens between Gen 1 and 2. You can also face Red and Leaf, all of them have a Kanto starter each and some other mons, Red is extremely high-level as per usual. Furthermore, you can attempt a Master Trainer challenge for every Pokemon in the game, some are one-on-one battles where you have to use the same Pokemon they specialize in, some are other types of quest, beating them gives you a "[Pokemon] Master" title, with [Pokemon] being the Pokemon they use, obviously. Oh, and the Fairy Trial Captain, Mina, can be fought as well, though she only uses Kanto Pokemon.

No Pokemon beyond the Kanto ones can be obtained, even post-game, with the exception of Meltan and Melmetal.

What's the deal with the co-op in Let's Go? Is it something you can enable from the get-go, or do you have to enable it at some point? Like, does player 2 select their character at the beginning of the game, or what?

So, I bought a switch because I knew eventually it'd get a pokemon, and like man, I feel like Let's Go was designed to make me feel bad for being 30 and playing these games, cause there's no way I can feel anything but cringe when I tell my Pikachu to use "splishy splashy"

the names are dumb but there's a line between "these names are dumb" and "the CRINGE names of this game are DRAINING THE TESTOSTERONE from my 30 year old and very mature body, something something pacifier rear end" and crossing that line makes you a huge loving weirdo loser
