I started playing Pokémon on the Nintendo DSI all the way up to the 3DS, but unfortunately, was unable to get the switch so my Pokémon journey ended there it seemed. As of last year I have since been able to get a switch (but for the family…) seeing an opportune I bought the latest Pokémon game to try out (even with mixed reviews) and I have to say I’ve been enjoying it greatly, ignoring the performance issues which of lately have greatly improved (at least on my end) on this 4g+ update.
So I would recommend checking this game out if you like Pokémon!

Despite all the bugs and performance issues.. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet does it right. 3 paths to choose from, Go where you want when you want, Shiny hunting with mass outbreaks and sandwiches.. Chefs Kiss

Game is very enjoyable. Gave it 4 stars since the switch is not that powerful and the game does look a bit old even though it is a fairly new title. Love Pokémon, you pay for an amazing experience!

An amazing game through and through. The mechanics definitely revamp and reinvent the classic Pokemon formula. The game does have its quirks though, such as some slight stuttering and minor texture and model issues. The ending is amazing and incredibly worth experiencing.
