    This is the best Pokemon game i played in years. Really different from the others. I loved battling through the ranks instead of the traditional gym system. And after completing the main story i completed the pokedex a week later. The battle royale style multiplayer battles were really fun too! 10/10 Pokemon game!

    If you’re a fan of the Pokemon franchise then you’ll have a blast in this. I recommend everyone with a Switch 2 to try this game too. Genuinely this Pokemon may not be all that stunning in some visual aspects but the core gameplay itself is quite addicting and you’ll find yourself naturally wanting to collect and grow further.

    If you loved Pokémon Legends: Arceus, then you're going to love this game as well. There is a much bigger variety of Pokémon in this game compared to the first, so you can build up your team pretty much however you'd like to. The city feels much larger than it actually is, with a lot of side quests to do. If you're worried about being a high enough level for the end game, don't be. The game throws enough Pokédex challenges at you that if you do a lot of the ones regarding catching Pokémon types, you'll get there. There are also a lot of Alpha Pokémon that are worth a ton of exp, and since exp is shared, leveling up your party shouldn't be much of a hassle. All in all, buy this game for whichever platform you like, as it's on Switch 1 and 2. You won't be sorry.

    Game is very good. so good that I played it all in 3 days this game does not deserve all the criticism it has. Only disappointed in customer service when buying ( was expecting to get a preorder bonus but they refused to give me one because I didn’t preorder early enough even though I’m pretty sure they had extras) still glad I bought it tho

    A Newcomer's Experience With Legends Z-A

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Legends Z-A was my first entry into the series, and it made a strong impression. The tutorial made the core systems easy to understand, and learning the different Pokémon typings was one of the most enjoyable parts of the early game. My playthrough lasted about 30 hours, partly because I spent extra time getting comfortable with the mechanics, but the experience remained engaging throughout. Finishing the main story doesn’t mark the end of available content. Side quests, shard collecting for purchasing Mega Evolution stones, and online ranked battles provide substantial post-game activity. With the addition of the DLC, there is even more to explore. Overall, the game offers an accessible introduction for newcomers and enough depth to keep players invested after the credits roll.

    Quality game. More battle focused than the previous Legends game. Loved seeing the new Mega evolutions and new takes on some of the old less used Mons.

    Game is amazing especially for an pokemon fan. The game does something different that is new and innovative. Gamers of older generation will getv kick of the new mechanics kinda reliving the anime and imaginative battles we all dreamed of.

    Pokémon Z-A is simply a blast. The urban redevelopment twist keeps things fresh, and the Mega Evolutions are super fun to use. Exploring Lumiose City was always exciting. If you're looking for a Pokémon game that's fun, definitely check out Pokémon Z-A!

    I knew from the day that I saw this game that I would like it. I had a hard time getting into Legends Arceus but once I did I actually ended up beating it twice and still turn it on to 100% it. I'm currently finished with the story mode of Pokémon ZA and it was such a great story. The battle aspect is such a fresh perspective and having that integrated to online multiplayer is epic chaos. I love it. I love all the clothes options and the ability to match your Pokémon. I love the wild zones. I love the side missions and being able to get on the roof and jump from roof to rough. I also love the mega evolutions. I also love the night time battles and how easy it is to make money. I'm currently 50 hrs. in and can see playing this game for at least 300 hrs. I would recommend this game to anyone, especially us who have been playing Pokémon for the last 30 years.

    My favorite Pokémon Game So Far

    Not trying to sound over dramatic, but this game is genuinely the best Pokémon series game I have ever played, the only complaint is that it’s in one city but even so Lumiose is so big that sometimes you just forget it takes place in one city.

    Thought I was going to have a bad experience with all of the negative things people were saying before the release. I've been loving every minute of my playthrough thus far! The fighting and style of the game just feels fresh for your typical Pokemon game.

    I personally believe this game to be one the best representations of what pokemon fundamentally is and the switch 2 edition is the best way to experience it

    It's fun to an extent. The main story gameplay gies by quickly if you don't do any side missions. I don't think this should've been a $70 game when I honestly got through the story in what felt like 12 hours. I had to keep limiting myself from finishing early by doing the city exploration and Pokémon hunting. This game is great for children 8 and up, but ultimately it will make more sense story-wise if they played through Pokémon X-Y on the 3DS first. The game consists entirely within Lumiose City and you can't leave to go anywhere else in the Kalos region. Otherwise, fun live battles keep it interesting. That and shiny Pokémon hunting has been made super easy this time around.

    It’s a great game. There’s some improvement from the last Pokemon Legends game and the game runs smoothly on Switch 2 handheld and tv mode. It has a nice art on the back of the cover art for the box.

    Probably the best if not top two Pokemon games to date. Phenomenal game play, story line, graphics, opportunity for enhancements and global play. 5 stars - highly recommend - get two incase you lose one!
