I don’t know why this exists. This is the easiest game I have ever played. I’m pretty sure if you gave a Nintendo switch with pokemon sword to an unborn fetus it would be able to beat this entire game. Not to mention the animations from the characters are a total mess. All 2 of them. And the trees look worse than most n64 games. With $60 you could get much better games. If you like to fall asleep while playing games, I would recommend it.

Lots of interesting levels and hours of entertainment. Keeps attentionwoth Alan the different aspects.

Excellent game from a classic series, would recommend.

Received Pokemon Sword as a Christmas gift and played it for a little over 20 hours. It caused my (brand new) Switch to freeze twice (the second time causing me to lose an hour of gameplay). Brought the game to Best Buy to exchange for a new one as it was clearly defective (I've played other games - physical and digital with no such issue), but was told that I cannot exchange it beyond January 16 once it's been opened. Now stuck with a game I can't play any more as I don't want to compromise a system worth far more than the replacement value of the game. Very disappointed with Nintendo and Best Buy.
