Many appreciate it as a fun remake of the original. However, some customers find the game lacks sufficient difficulty, and motion controls can be finicky. There are also criticisms regarding the leveling up process and the new encounter and catching mechanics.

    I hated to have to use Repel straight to pass in caves, for example, avoiding hordes of zubat and battling wild pokémons gave almost nothing of experience, besides being annoying and when it needed to complete the pokédex, the Pokémon gave a critic, precisely in a rare pokémon, after several hours in a same map, turning, supporting the hundreds of times of that same pokémon jumping in front of him. I bought the two versions and the pokéball plus. I just loved it.

    It's okay if you like pokemon go (phone app). I didn't realize it's a clash between classic pokemon and new mobile pokemon. It isn terrible just not the regular pokemon. It emphasizes on throwing the pokeball correctly etc.
