    Great game and a breath of fresh air for the franchise. People complained too much about the frame drops. It barely affected my gameplay. Be warned, game does crash time to time so keep that auto save on!

    Scarlet is a really unique Pokemon game! It expands upon the Wild Area in Sword and Shield, and gives the player the freedom to explore and play the story in whatever order and whenever you want.

    It’s a very good Pokémon game at its core, with some performance issues that can hinder it at times. If that’s nothing something you really care about then you will like this game a lot.

    With Scarlet and Violet, you’ll be traversing an open world of Pokémon game and be able to control exactly where you want to go, when you want to go, and how fast you go there. The game does not run very well but at the same time you probably only care about the Pokémon. This game does show that Pokémon as a whole needs to be better for its audience and change the development pattern to ensure their games play proper in the future.

    Great Pokémon game, however it has some graphic and lag issues. Pokemon Arceous is way better than this one.

    Game brings back some nostalgia while throwing in new features. Think they missed the mark with some of the new features though,

    One of the most fun but technically flawed games I've played. The framerates are sometimes headache-inducing, but the gameplay is the some of the best for a mainline Pokemon.
