Love this game, i have only played gen 1 games for the lost part but i still recommend this to anyone regardless of your pokemon knowledge level

This is the Pokémon game I've been waiting for since 1998. Gameplay loop is satisfying and there's just enough spin on the old ideas to keep you engaged throughout. While the encounter variety and rates makes certain areas and post game not as "magical feeling" as the first half of the game, this truly is a geniue Pokémon experience in an open world.

Really fun! Been looking for a Pokemon open-world game and this delivered for a first iteration. What they did here is exciting and can't wait for the countless new possibilities going forward.

Excellent gameplay that really changed up the formula while still remaining distinctly Pokemon, candidate for best Pokemon game of all time

Honestly, this is such a great game! Even after completing the main story line, I’m still working on completing all of the Pokédex entries. I lose way too much time with this game - in the best way.

The game has a good story line, well thought out, and is better on the switch due to portability.

This the first Pokémon I played, after several feed up from online source that started that the games was a good game. I’m surprised it really is a great game

I think this was one of my most favorite Pokemon game. It was quite refreshing from the long time same gameplay we get every year.

Best game for grinding & pokemon lovers. Would definitely recommend

Exactly what the Pokémon franchise needed. The open world aspect of the game is fun and addicting to get lost in. Hoping future installments of the series follows this formula!

Super fun, exceeded expectations. beautiful graphics. This game is a great twist on classic Pokemon games and is great for anyone who loves the games but might have gotten bored of the older style.

Arceus is a great game for dedicated and lapsed fans of the franchise and newcomers alike. The changes to the old formula breathe new life into a series that many have complained was getting stale.

Worth the buy, great game. Felt like a breathe of fresh air compared to playing the Pokémon games that having been coming out.

This time around was pretty good. I enjoyed Arceus more than the previous versions. I felt they ironed it out a few more issues. It's an open world style game which is nice, but sometimes it's too open. I also felt that if you weren't in a town/village area the areas were too sparse.

It’s like playing Breath of the Wild: Pokémon edition. I would say it’s one of the best Pokémon titles available on the switch at the moment

A great open world style pokemon game. It breaks away from tradition but with welcoming arms. I highly recommend for any pokemon player! I personally love the ball throwing system to catch Pokemon!

At first, I couldn’t get behind the game since it’s different from previous games. It took a couple of hours of consistently playing before I realized how enjoyable and challenging it can be.

Its a great change up in terms of pokemon game mechanics. I enjoy the new way of playing a pokemon game, and hope to see more of this style for them soon.

Best pokemon game hands down on switch 2 letsgooooo

Best Buy very helpful on price match with this. The story is basic to get the job done, graphics are not top notch but colorful. Lack of breeding and competitive mechanics limits replay value but it is a lot of fun collecting pokemon between the Alpha pokemon, outbreak mechanic and shinies. Certain pokemon are tedious to catch though.
