    I bought the switch recently solely just to play this game. It definitely has not disappointed me. I love the fact that you can either progress through the story or just roam around as you please. I spent the first couple hours just collecting every pokemon and exploring the map. If you’re a pokemon fan, its a must grab. Hundreds of hours of gameplay easily if you wanna complete the game entirely.

    Honestly one of the best Pokémon games released as of late. The experience was like playing Pokémon again for the first time. Sad that the future releases were not as intuitive and great like this one.

    pre-ordered and purchased as a Christmas gift. Received it a couple days after release. A little frustrating, because when we have pre-ordered stuff in the past we actually received it ON the release date (maybe there was just a general issue with shipping).Either way, always happy with BB purchase. GReat game

    Solid game, but nothing special. Pokemon Arceus delivers that old school nostalgia that us old school Pokemon gamers love. While it delivers a different game style unlike the traditional storyline Pokemon games, Arceus still packs a beautiful punch with giving trainers lots to discover!

    This game brings hope for newer Pokémon games. It changes up things that have been the same for years. The game itself is fun and countless hours can be poured into the game. There are issues with this title, but many of them can be ironed out as GameFreak improves making more (semi) open-world titles and similar games.

    This game has so many quality of life improvements that have plagued the game since basically the beginning. They slightly changed how combat can work with the "styles." Gone are the days where you have to spam A every few seconds thanks to random encounters. I really hope the next gen sticks with this formula

    This is probably one of the most fun games I have ever played. I was worried this was going to be like pokemon go the rpg, but it really is not. It is so much fun that I could not put it down for over 100 hours. I hope the DLC comes soon because I would like to have another go at this game.

    I had to give this game a try as I loved all the OG Pokémon games from my Gameboy Advanced. I was initially skeptical of all the changes that were made, but I actually love it more than the OG games. It’s super fun and realistic. The graphics are great! The storyline is fun! All around an incredible game!

    I bought this game being skeptical of the new direction Pokémon decided to go. Well, I can safely say my skepticism has totally disappeared while playing this game. I’m 15 hours in and am always looking forward to going home from work and clocking in a few more. Definitely recommend for anyone of all ages.

    Pokemon went to a new level with this adventure. I was worried at first bc I have loved Pokemon since its inception. This game gives me legend of zelda breath of wild vibes with Pokemon vibes and i love this fusion. Worth the wait but I know DLC is around the corner smh Just give the people a complete game.

    Excellent tweak to the Pokémon standard adding in a totally open world setting, new capture mechanics, and pokedex requirements but the story is totally forgettable, zero voice acting once again, waaaaay too much unnecessary dialog, and really bad graphics for a game that came out in 2022 a month before something like elden ring or horizon forbidden west release is like...not good. I understand the switch is underpowered but this looks worse than breath of the wild, a game that launched the system 5 years ago.

    I went in skeptical, and I was very happilly surprised with the game play and graphics of this game! While it is familiar to anyone who has played any flavor of pokemon in the past, it now has an action rpg feel to it which works very well! Having so much fun!
