    I thought the battling was going to be more intense, but it became a local pokemon go game instead.

    Its not a true classic pokemon game. Its missing battling pokemon. Which makes it a tad too easy.

    Not as fun as Pokémon go though. They could have made the game a little more interesting.

    This game is not worth full price unless you're a Pokemon fanatic that needs everything or a Pokemon Go player. The pokeball controller is okay. Kinda neat how you can digitally carry one of your pokemon around and it makes random sounds.

    Don't get the bundle

    The game itself is great. The pokeball plus is terrible. It's uncomfortable playing with. It will not connect to pokemon go without a third party app, and even then I have to keep reconnecting it. Get the game, not the bundle

    I've been sitting here for two hours trying to get the ball to connect to pokemon go and it simply refuses to work. I haven't even played the game yet. All I really wanted was the ball and the piece of junk doesn't function.

    This plays a lot like Pokemon Go. If you are looking for a classic Pokemon experience you'll want to pass on this game even though it brings the gen 1 region into the modern day.

    If you were expecting a somewhat challenging game then look elsewhere. Nothing about this game is a challenge.

    This is basically pokemon go on the switch. It's a complete disappointment. You just throw pokeballs to catch pokemon to level up. You dont actually battle wild pokemon. If you like pokemon go, this is for you. If you like the normal pokemon games, DO NOT BUY.

    Catch mechanic leaves a lot to be desired. With the motion controls playing in docked mode, throwing the balls accurately is very difficult because the ball will fly off in the incorrect direction randomly.

    Pokemon Go for Switch.

    This game is just basically Pokemon Yellow changed to mimic Pokemon Go. Its literally Pokemon Go for the Switch with Pokemon Yellows story. Definitely not a true entry in the series.

    Pokemon let's go is a way different experience compared to you typical pokemon game. It has some cool mechanics with catching pokemon and some beautiful graphics.
