Would recommend on sale
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great combat, poor grgaphics for a swirch 2 game. Can use voice actors and a better story.

Game itself is a solid 8.5/10, but Best Buy sucks
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I preodered this online to make sure i got the preoder playmat since it seemed like the best preorder bonus for this game. I picked up my order on release day and the manager and all the staff (some who made orders for this game too) never got the playmat. I personally didn't have a problem since I remember when I placed the order that the playmat would be shipped to me (hence why they asked for my address upon ordering). It has been 2 weeks. No email, not mention of it shipping to me and Customer Service let me know that since it isn't on their website, it doesn't exist. So nothing they can do. Told me to call them, but bet they're just going to keep lying saying that the preorder item didn't exist, even though there are sights that confirm its existence. Plausible deniability is what they're trying to do with this preorder fiasco and this it my first and LAST preorder I make with this company.

NO PRE-ORDER BONUS AS WAS ADVERTISED.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am pleased with the product I bought itself, however I am not pleased with Bestbuys handling of the pre-order as I did not receive the pre-order bonus that is advertised for purchasing the item at bestbuy specifically.

Do better nintendo
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lack of voiceovers make the game longer than it needs to be. It's 2025 why are pokemon still making 8 bit noises and not what they say in the shows/movies. Battling and catching the pokemon however is fun. 2 steps forward 3 backwards

Not Worth the Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For a so-called "Main Title" game from the largest grossing IP in the world, this game was a total let down. Also, day 1 DLC making it the most expensive pokemon game to date and only getting a lazily slapped together shadow of what they promised is just pitiful and sad. Did I have fun playing it? For a time. But the game was the same at hour 10 as it was at 30. Clearly just a money grab from Gamefreak and Nintendo. Looks bad, plays like watered down Zenoblade, and was lazy in it's production. I cannot overstate how bad this game is and how it's a spit in the face of any true pokemon fan. Either go play Palworld or just Arceus.

A Disappointing game
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This game is very disappointing as a fan of the series. There is an inconsistency with the quality of the cutscenes, lack of voice acting makes the cutscenes feel off, the map is too small, and the graphics is inexcusable with things like balconies being flat textures instead of 3D models. I don’t recommend this game to even fans of the series. The only good things are some of the cutscenes and areas.

Most Boring Pokemon Game.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Incredibly boring game. I've been playing Pokemon games since Red and Blue came out in the 90s. This game was by far the most boring and worst game. The singular city in the game is nothing special. The "wild zones" are small. Couldn't even get close to finishing the game simply because nothing about it was fun.

Worst Pokémon game in the franchise
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Another overpriced disappointment from Nintendo. This will be the last Pokemon title I ever pre-order, and I've played every generation since RBY. Between the visuals ranging between N64 and PS2, the janky battle system, the tiny playable city area covered in repetitive lo-res textures, and the month-2 DLC launching at another $30, this game is a joke. Avoid.

No bonus
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Game is horrible but thats not best buys fault, i preordered with them spcifically to get the play mat and they said they had no more???
