Customer Ratings & Reviews

I ordered this as a Valentine's gift for my kids. They love it, but have to take turns playing as it's just single player. It's not too difficult and requires them to read to follow the story, which I like.

Excellent pokemon iteration, new open world that has not been seen, and better chances for catching shiny pokemon. A whole new experience and more to come, everything a generation 1 kid wanted to experience.

This pokemon game brings a nice open world adventure for a nice new spin on the classic franchise. You get lost for hours and hours exploring the open world. Definetly woudl recommend this to anyone.

What a welcome change for the Pokémon formula, well worth a try.

Amazing Game! One of the best open world pokemon games out there. hours of gameplay and fun to watch if you have friends.....

One of my favorite Pokemon games, unlike any other. The way to capture pokemon and the story are very unique. Would recommend to any pokemon fans or those looking for an adventure.

Enjoying the game far more than I thought I would. I would love to see the main series adapt this style of play the maps are large and open with the only downside that I feel takes away from the experience being that it seems that they aren't all connected and there is a loading screen when leaving the main village. I'm several hours in though and the game is a lot of fun. The visuals and style of play are definitely a step in the right direction for pokemon as a series. I did find some things that I don't like such as the menus and item storage are a little difficult to navigate, your character doesn't seem to be able to cross deep water I'm not sure if that's possible later in the game, and wild Pokémon chase and attack you very frequently which wouldn't be a big deal except it gets rather annoying when your trying to explore and every pokemon you pass chases you down. Overall the game is very good and the new ways to capture and battle make the experience feel fresh, there are no gyms and so far only a few trainer battles. You can honestly spend quite a while in the first area just exploring and capturing pokemon. I definitely recommend for anyone who enjoys pokemon games.

The game is super fun and I would highly recommend it to any Pokémon fans who enjoy the thrill of catching Pokémon rather than engaging in battles. There are still elements of Pokémon battles throughout the game, but the game definitely emphasizes catching and collecting more than becoming the Pokémon champion. In regards to Best Buy’s service, they were quick, easy, and very nice! I placed an order online and had my order ready for pickup within 10 minutes of placing my order. Pickup at the store was also super quick and very organized. I probably bought the game and was able to play it within 30 minutes of placing the order. I would definitely order from Best Buy again!

This is a pretty fun game that's a fusion of Pokemon Sword/Shield and Scarlet/Violet.

A fun game with a very in-depth story to it. Pokémon fans should rejoice as the franchise brakes away from its classic gameplay originality into something more modern for an rpg classic.

Fun game. Delivered on time. Came in good condition.

So many new features in this installment of the pokemon series while still remaining true to so much of the older games. I'm an original fan since the Red and Blue version Gameboy days and also just a gaming fan in general -- this is exactly what the series needed. Catching pokemon is now fun and even challenging in certain scenarios not because of randomization/luck, but because you literally have to be good with your aim, timing, strategy in doing so. The new features and the 3D landscape make this feel like a brand new experience without losing the feel of what made the series great. Highly suggest.

I love this game, it’s so much fun! I have never played a Pokémon game in my life and this is awesome.

Been playing this non stop and having a great time. For those that like catching pokemon and completing tasks this is a great game for that. It’s not like the traditional games and brings a new feel.

This game is amazing!! Good price and I love this store.

Best game to play ever had in a while, great character design

Great story and good graphics. Love the different style of battling and catching pokemon

A nice twist to the usual Pokemon formula. It's like a Pokemon action game meets the standard turn based battle system. Plus this game is nice and indicates shiny Pokemon on screen. This'll help those that aren't that familiar with Pokemon still find shinnies. Plus it has a decent story, lots of side content, and plenty of legendary Pokemon to capture.

This is a really fun game, the open world is really enjoyable. Also catching pokemon without having to battle them is awesome.

REALLY great open world experience for the pokemon SAGA. I had played the previous pikachu and pokemon sword, they were Okay but it lacked the real open world feeling. this one is LEGIT 100% the one I was looking for. Lots of things to explore and missions to do. the pokemon battles are really great too. not sure what these critics are talking about.. it's worth it, I recommend hooking up to your 4k or 8k TV to feel the real experience
