    Bought this copy for my son who have never played Pokemon before but loves dinosaurs. Then I bought Violet for myself. He loves seeing all the different pokemon and exploring together. Gameplay was fun and even though he is 6 he was able to understand and get pretty far on his own.

    I have not played a Pokemon game since Heart Gold. So as you can imagine this is a big change. The graphics are great. Gameplay took some getting use to, but not that different from the old way. Great game for Pokemon veterans and rookies.

    I have almost beat the game, 45+ hours. and the only problem I have had is framerate drops. No falling through maps, no crashes nothing. I get that not every playthrough is going to be the same. But I feel like NO ONE has had the smooth, chill experience I did. Maybe im lucky or just dont know how to video game properly...

    I remember playing the red and blue titles on the original Gameboy when I was a kid but to see and play these new Pokemon titles on the new OLED Nintendo Switch I bought at best buy as well brings back that nestalgia from when I was a kid love pokemon violet and scarlet.

    The game crashes every time I play. I’m not someone who usually cares about graphics but this game runs poorly. It can barely keep up frames. That aside, I do enjoy how easy the game is and the story. Easy pickup but unacceptable for $60

    It’s a new way of playing Pokémon I’m used to old school running through grass and just coming in contact with a any Pokémon in this game you can see the Pokémon before you run into them other then that it is like the old Pokémon games with new twists

    This game is great! While I personally believe that the Devs created/tested the game using a more powerful switch, the is still tons of fun! You can do any badge or evil team leader in any order you want and visit any part of the map you want without having to do anything in a specific order. 9/10!

    Very fun game, and worth the price. You can spend a lot of time shiny hunting. A little buggy due to the open world environment

    Another good game from pokemon with lots of hours to play. Very similar gameplay to Violet. Scarlet seems to offer more kinds of pokemon, but overall good gameplay.

    You get what you want, you just don’t get it in a well running package. Reminds me a lot of early ps3/360 performance. Still a pretty good tome over all! Catch it on a sale if you can

    Great game, great overworld, better story than previous Pokemon games. Enjoyable and fun through-and-through. Can be buggy and run poorly at times, but I've thoroughly enjoyed it so far

    This is the most fun I've had with a pokemon game in a while. I just completed my dex catching all in game pokemon. It was fun to trade, explore, and do raid battles with my brother who has violet. The framerate and performance issues didn't affect my overall enjoyment of the game.

    Grandson wanted this for his birthday. Everyone else did not have it in stock, but Best Buy did not disappoint as they had multiple copies. Needless to say our grandson was excited.

    Haven’t played a Pokémon game in almost 1 years so it’s been a bit of a learning curve with all the new types, however I do enjoy the open world and the challenge as a beginner again.
