After the Pokemon sun and moon anime I thought that the Pokemon company was out of ideas, and they were just pushing whatever came out onto the script and going along with it. So, naturally I thought that this game would be just that an idea forced to come out, but boy was I wrong. This game is absolutely wonderful, it has all the excitement we as gamers got from the old Pokemon games. It has a great story, it is fun to play, it is more interesting because of dynamax Pokemon,and finally the new gym challenges and the battle style are awesome. So overall I would recommend this game to anyone who asks. However I will also say to wait for the Pokemon home app so you can have all of your Pokemon from the older games as well as the new Pokemon you catch in this game, but other than this there are no complains. It is an absolutely great game, and it has the thrill all of the other Pokemon games had.

Very fun game I knew it would beat Sun and Moon, the game just feels large and alive overall and most of my favorite Pokémon are in this game as well, EV training is so much easier and the wild area is cool, my favorite activity is the max raid battles.

Maybe it's because I'm older now but the one player story is insanely easy. I was able to get through it way too fast. Still good game. I do like it just had high expectations that were not met. It does look gorgeous though I have to give it that. All in all considering this series has been going on forever this is a pretty good game just not as good as I wanted it to be.

I thought it was going to come with steel cases for the games. I guess Best buy dual pack doesn't come with steel cases for the games. What's really the point of a dual package if you just get 2 normal pokemon games and nothing else.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
