    The game is cute, but really presents no challenge. There is so much dialog I found myself bored after a few minutes of gameplay

    Way too much dialogue in this game. No action at all for the price tag definitely not worth it. Unless you love to read

    Different type of Pokemon game. Kids didn’t like it as much as snap, Pokken tournament, Legends or the mainline Pokémon games. We like the movie, though

    It's cute, but very boring. It's one of those games that babies you the entire way. Kinda bummed I spent that much on such a lame game.
