    Unlike any Pokémon game in the franchise, such a fun title for Pokémon fans. Exploring is fun and catching Pokémon is really the center of this game. The story line is actually really good as well . Great service as always and easy pick up from Best Buy as well

    A fun and fresh experience for Pokémon fans. Honestly the game we needed. Though it’s not perfect it has so many elements that I’ve been waiting for. Very much a story and explore game. If you are looking for trainer battles and gyms you will be disappointed.

    I am a big pokemon game collector and when i heard about this game i just knew i had to get it. During the first hour the game was a bit slow, but once the gameplay kept going i just couldnt seem to put my switch down. Definitely recommend, its a must buy.

    As a Pokémon fan it was fun having an open world game. Grew up on Pokémon Red so it’s came a long way. Just wish I didn’t have to read so much and wished the game had voice acting

    A strange departure from the PokeNorm, but ended up being a lot of fun despite the neckbeards getting mad that something in their environment changed. You can enjoy this. The stealth/catching mechanic changes are actually quite fun.

    Loving the new experience of Pokémon. Free roam is awesome. No need to constantly grind to level. Graphics are decent. If there was voice instead of constant reading, it would be better. Would NEVER preorder for delivery as it DOES NOT arrive on release date.

    This game is completely different from the other pokemon games. I have played every single pokemon game since the originals, and I was not sure I would like this one, but I love it. It is gives the player a whole new perspective on the pokemon world.

    I had never played a Pokemon game before. I was surprised at home much fun this one is. I really enjoyed the open world concept. Exploring and catching Pokemon is everything I wanted from a Pokemon game.

    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.

    Absolutely worth a play through if you're looking for a solid pokemon game with some open world replayability while also experiencing the game in a unique way. Somewhat breathe of the wild like i guess.

    Pokémon fan since Pokémon blue came out. I haven’t had so much fun with a Pokémon game like I did with Arceus. Everything from catching Pokémon to walking around and collecting items. It’s incredible! Highly recommend

    I have truly fell in love with these new versions of the Pokemon as of late... If you loved played and enjoyed Sword and/or Shield you will love this game just as much, if not more! Catching Pokemon within an open-ish world is so enjoyable and leaves you wanting to catch them all. The main story is also enjoyable with cute commentary that can be funny at times. There are also a ton of side quests that you can complete with this game... which is why I ended up logging 55+ hours. ;)

    Bought it for my husband as a surprise random gift. He was so excited to get it. He said it's a little different way of playing than your normal Pokémon games but still very enjoyable. He has been playing it every night since he got it.

    Great game. Honestly the best Pokémon entry in years. Enough new changes to make you feel like you are playing a different game. This is something I wish they would of done a long time ago. I’m just happy to see game freak heading in the right direction.

    If you love Pokémon, this is a must-have! I was worried about the open world-ish aspect but, if you love Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, you will definitely love this!
