    Have enjoyed the game very much. Have been playing for years so I do enjoy the couple mechanic changes they have made to revitalize the series

    Best since Red and Blue, if not better. Charming, interesting plot, great characters (Prof. Kukui is THE BEST), fun new Pokemon, great music and style. I love Pokemon, but this is the first Pokemon game I've enjoyed as a game, independent of my love for the franchise and experiences it gives me, in over 15 years.

    On the top of the Christmas list and didn't disappoint. Was easy for my 7 year old to start playing without adult assistance and he loves it!

    Wow, I had fun with this one. Pokemon Sun is definitely an upgrade from the shoddy pokemon X and Y

    As some other reviews said, this game felt slower and gym battles are missed. It seems a little dumbed down too, but that's not necessarily bad for new or young players because it makes it more approachable. I appreciate some of the changes made (ride pokemon, swapping in newly caught pokemon), but overall none of the characters really left an impression. Okay for passing the time, but other things easily distract me from it.

    Pokemon Sun is a good installment to the franchise, but I enjoyed playing Pokemon X and Y better. But the new features are nice.

    The game is good and works well and you just load and play. The con could be different from the other games in this series.

    This pokemon game is better than X/Y ever was, it feels a lot more challenging and I like the Alola form of the old pokemon.
