    This is one of the best Pokemon games ever! The only other ones that I would say are above it would be the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games. The game has such an addicting flow that really just hooks you in and doesn't let you leave. This gives me huge hopes for the future of the series!

    Overall a pretty simple concept and a change to the usual formula, but it’s an easy game to pick up for a few minutes if you’re short on time. Graphics are what you’d expect from a Pokemon game but runs pretty well.

    This game is a MASTERPIECE! After so many years of the same generic idea copy and pasted by game freak/Nintendo, this game is a breath of fresh air for longtime fans of the series. Sure, it’s not a perfect game, but it is opening up an entire gateway into what Pokémon can become.

    4.5 stars, way better than base sword and shield

    4.5 stars, , way better than base sword and shield. Has more of a challenge to it (although still not hard persay). Graphics are ok, not great, wish they could keep a locked 1080p resolution. But the gameplay is where its at. If you hated sword and shield, i would recommend this

    I've only got a couple hours of gameplay so far but the free rome along with interaction of the pokemon is spectacular. Pokemon being able to attack the player is definitely new aspect to a once simple game.

    Love this game. The fact that you have the ability to roam around catching or battling wild Pokémon is what had me sold. But as you go on the journey and complete missions and side requests you really get lost in the game.

    There’s never been a Pokémon game like this, it’s a completely different way of playing and capturing Pokémon than we’re used to

    This is the best Pokemon game I have played. Play so much better than Scarlet and Violet. The art style this game is rather unique and looks great on an OLED display. Like any pokémon game there is a lot of grinding in this.

    Pokémon Arceus is easily the most fun I’ve had with a Pokémon game in years. It gave me the same feeling of wonder that I got playing Pokémon Sapphire on my Gameboy SP back when I was kid. If you’re a longtime Pokémon fan I believe you will find this game refreshing.

    There is so much i can say about this game, but there really is not enough room to leave something that does this game justice. please watch some youtube reviews. but as a Pokemon player for the last 20 years, this is by far one of the best games they have come out with EVER.

    It's Pokemon but it's all new and not like many others in the series. This is a darker more interesting take on catching them all. It's open worldish and features a spin on classic pokemon. I'm enjoying it so far, you might want to check it out if your a pokemon fan.

    Been playing Pokémon since I was a kid and was on the ropes about this one but heard a bunch of good reviews so decided to pick it up and so far have not been disappointed it’s definitely a nice twist on the Pokémon games and gives it a new kind of life

    Already put in over 16 hours. Different from what we are used to but fun and interesting. Some frustrations like how you can end up battling multiple wild pokemon but only use one yourself, but it just adds a bit more planning instead of running blindly through tall grass.

    This is the type of Pokémon I’ve been waiting for since Blue/Red. This is a great experiment for what is next in the Pokémon franchise and I am all for it. Sure, the graphics aren’t the best, but no one plays Pokémon for the graphics. Great experience in terms of gameplay.
