Received the code fast, GameStop took forever so bought from Best Buy instead. Pokemon Pearl was the first Pokemon game I played and I was very young so I forgot about the story but seeing people stream the game and hearing the music, My god especially the music was so nostalgic so I decided to buy the game. Recommend buying for the nostalgia but if you haven't played the originals probably just save your money and get Pokemon Arceus instead

Great remake! I wish they’d enable cloud saves so I could go from my switch to the lite which I take to work.

It's basically the original Pearl game with a few modifications and updates to the game. On the switch it's a great fit.

It’s not the kind of remake I was expecting but I do like the underground part being able to collect other pokemon I otherwise wouldn’t be able to without plus the lengendary pokemon and free mythicals

I got my code so fast when I had purchased this game. If you are a fan of the older series and Pokémon with a slight twist. I would definitely recommend anyone to enjoy this nostalgic game with new features and upgraded graphics. It was definitely a fun blast to the past moment for me.
