Fun game, different from the other entries. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Amazing game. I love the open world and am very happy they decided to go this route. Great new concepts and ways to play the game in this version of Pokémon.

I bought this for my wife's birthday. She enjoyed playing through the game. I wantched her play parts of it. This is what she told me. Positive: -Game is faster/wastes less time -Open world with pokemon walking around (improved from previous Sword/Shield game) -YOU can choose when pokemon evolve -Easy to travel around the world -Easy to change pokemon moves making it less punishing to try out new pokemon in your team -Crafting is a nice addition Cons: -Special abilities that define certain pokemon not included -Boss battles are less about battling them with pokemon and more about dodging and throwing stuff at them -Odd looking choices for the design of certain objects/areas (what is up with some of those trees?) -Quests for legendary pokemon (other than the ones in the main story line) that used to be very important are given very little attention All in all. It's a welcome change in the formula the game has needed, but some areas need more work to reach their potential.

Open world Pokemon following greater market trends. Fun to interact with individual Pokemon to interesting backdrop and less than stellar written characters and plot. Greater worry is the hope of improved iteration to Pokemon as a franchise without simply giving into trite checkboxes

An amazing open world Pokémon game! Nintendo did a great job at turning this franchise into an immersive open world game and has pretty much fulfilled a childhood desire of what I have been looking for in a Pokémon game. Next goal is an immersive virtual world Pokémon games!!!

New take on the Pokemon series, only have been able to play for a couple hours but I like what I have seen. Would be nice if it ran higher than 30fps.

What a welcome change for the Pokémon formula, well worth a try.

Great game worth every bit. I had so much fun from the explorations to the gameplays definitely peak pokemon up there with Black 2 and White 2

This is a great game, I love the change-up in the style of game play. It's an open-world style and not based on one task opening the next part.

one of the best pokemon game good music, good graphic, a good story and show the beginning of pokemon history. good game

I feel like this game is under appreciated. It is a different take on the pokemon formula, but in all honestly I like where this is going. I hope future games in the franchise make bolder moves like this game did, I have played Scarlet and I liked Arceus better.

One of the best Pokemon games I've ever play! I really enjoy exploring different places and catch pokemon. It do feels like an open world pokemon!

This is a pretty fun game that's a fusion of Pokemon Sword/Shield and Scarlet/Violet.

Ever wanted to be a Pokemon biologist? This is your chance to shine! Build the world's first Pokedex, and have a fun adventure in the process! See the Sinnoh (Diamond/Pearl) region become what it is known as in present time in the pokemon universe with almost completely open world play. I cannot describe to you how this is exactly the Pokemon system I always wanted. It is my perfected thought of an entry to the system that not only builds on everything that came before, but also adds more interesting twists and turns to the old formula.

A lot of fun. I really enjoyed the game. It gets a little repetitive near the end but the story is good and it is a really fun adaptation of the original gameplay.

I love the new mechanics introduced in this game. It's fun that is open world and you can catch Pokemon in their habitats.

I wish more Pokémon games were more like this one. This game is the most fun I've had completing the pokédex, and the new mechanics like the strong/agile style moves, catching Pokémon in overworld, requests, etc are cool and unique. Lots of replay value, it was well worth my time. Would 100% recommend, A+

This game is great. I loved the old Pokémon games as a kid but they just aren’t exciting enough to hold my attention now. I love the open world concept and running into Pokémon as I travel across the maps. I always wondered why Pokemon didn’t attack people and now they do! I honestly thought I grew out of video games but this game has me staying up way too late each night because I don’t want to put it down. I was surprised the weekend the game released it sold out of every store around me so I had to order it from the site.

Most fun Pokemon game I've played since I was a kid. It really made me feel like I was a young again and exploring a new world. The only downside is this game is not truly an open world experience but its close enough to to it to be enjoyed as one. The catching system in this game has been revamped. You no longer have to battle a pokemon to catch it. You can simply sneak up on one out in the wild and throw a pokeball at it. This game is all about catching them all so if you're up to the challenge this game is for you.

Great game and very different from other Pokémon games. A little harder than the other games but still approachable.
