I really enjoyed the game. It to me around 20 hours to complete the story and I enjoyed my time playing the entire time.

One of the better pokemon games for switch in recent times. Even runs good on switch 1 and with more refinement these games can be revolutionary for the franchise.

I applaud Gamefreak for introducing a new battle style with this game; it's completely real time and you're able to move in a 3D arena space during the battle. Moves no longer have PP, but rather they are all cooldown-based. It's a fresh take, however, I think I vastly prefer the original battle style. This one has issues because you need to first get in range to start channeling your move. That's right, you need to CHANNEL your move before it's able to be used. So during this time, the opponent can walk slightly sideways and your move will whiff. And other times, your Pokemon can get blocked on terrain which causes your move to time out.
My second gripe with the game is the setting. Everything takes place in Lumious city. The buildings all look so sameish, it makes the game kind of bland to look at. They do mix things up by allowing you to scale the buildings and have strategically placed catwalks and ladders to force you to explore the city in certain ways, which gates certain rare Pokemon to by placing them on unreachable rooftops until you get upgrades to your mobility. So that is the carrot they dangle in front of you throughout the game.

This game is different from other pokemon games but it's really fun to play. Has a different battle style, great story, and many amazing Pokémon. If you love Mega Evolution, this is the game for you. Great quality and easy shiny hunting.

There's a bit of everything for people to enjoy, especially more character customization. My only slight complaint is the longer than usual intro/tutorial part that felt at times limiting in an already smaller setting. I personally think Pokemon should consider the addition of voice actors as I definitely felt this one needed that and not just background music that sometimes felt off for the scene.

Honestly I such an upgrade. They say Pokemon is for kids but this game is definitely more for young adults with its mechanics and gameplay. You have to move around and guide your Pokemon in battle instead of the traditional turn based games, having to duck and dodge and freaking Pokemon chasing and attacking you. It’s so much more complex that it keeps you engaged!
