Customer Ratings & Reviews

Dispite at the discorse between both games and the glitches people have found, Ive been playing this game for awhile and its pretty enjoyable, as much as a pokemon game can be. Not as good as Aceus but thats expexted.

While there were a lot of impressive changes made in this Pokemon entry, it clearly needed a bit more time in development and testing before being released. Still, once the glitches are resolved it'll be a great game!

My son loves these games and plays them all the time

Kids loved the game it reminds me of classic pokemon

Game is a brand new take on the classic pokemon formula but it unfortunately is very glitchy and buggy.  Hopefully they will patch this came. There still alot of  fun to be had  however.

My son and I love to play these games together!!!!

The game is a lot of fun, the glitches seemed to be patched, though the internet is a little wonky. Delivery was also remarkable and was able to play it a day after release I believe.

Pokemon is fun being open world. It needs a couple updates to fix a couple bugs in the game but in general the storyline is great and fun.

Yes, this game is currently a little glitchy at times, but it’s still a really good game with a really good story. It was definitely worth picking up this physical double pack, especially on release day.

This game is more traditional than arceus. You still do gyms and fight a new version of team rocket. The down side is a huge amount of propaganda they force feed you. Catching pokemon is not like arceus. It is traditional catching. The catch rates are entirely random. It is very frustrating that they botched the probabilities on the different pokeballs to the point where none of it matters at all. It is easy to get stuck because it expects you to choose a direction then go back to the start and choose the opposite direction and then stop and go back to the first direction then stop and go back again all without any prompting from the game.

It makes my young heart happy to play this game and to see how far Pokemon has come with their new open-world concept, so much to discover, if you think youve seen every place you most likely havent!

Honestly, there are bugs. They stated they will fix selected bugs. As for the gameplay, very fun, unique stories, it gets you invested. End game was amazing and peak Pokemon.

Very fun game. Purchased the Double Pack so I could play together with my significant other. We are having a good time playing coop together. The game is glitchy but fun.

It’s Pokémon… again… That’s it! That’s the review! Ok, in all seriousness, these are fun little games, that are finally going in the right direction, because of features that the fans have been asking for, but it could have stayed in development for a little bit longer to iron out the bugs and be properly optimized to run on the Nintendo Switch, like Zelda: Breath of the Wild did. I would recommend waiting for these games to be mostly bug free and optimized before buying, to get the intended experience.

The framerate in the game can be super trash at times. The property with the most money ever and they cant be bother to do a better job. Nintendo needs to pay for this lol

While the gameplay is some of the most fun in the series, it's a broken buggy mess, not worth its full price tag. There's tons of longer, more thoughtful reviews online, but in short, the technical difficulties holds back what could be a interesting, at at times fun, open-world pokemon game. The co-op is some of the best in the series, as playing with my sibling has been very fun. For a better single player adventure and open-area pokemon gameplay you're better off playing Pokemon Legends Arceus.

I like that Violet and Scarlett are more open world than Sword and Shield. I do agree that the game does slow down however i wouldn't say that it kills the experience.

Dont listen to all the bad reviews, this game is fun and enjoyable even despite the technical shortcomings. Its a solid entry into the pokemon line and deserves a play…

The new pokemon title continues the fun from previous titles. The only complaint is there is sometimes graphical glitches in the game that will hopefully be patched out.
