    Open world Pokémon game! Thats the best part. However the over all poor graphics, bugs, lag, fps, and random crashes take away from the game. Plays better in handheld mode with less issues than when docked. But in the end its still a new Pokémon game so if you like the franchise its easier to overlook the performance.

    Even with the poor performance from running on an old switch this game is still worth picking up.

    Having played the game for a couple of weeks, this game has a lot of potential to be great. However, it is hampered by all the performance issues which include clipping through walls, stuttering, etc. As much as I like this game, I wouldn’t recommend buying it until they releases a patch to fix those issues.

    As of this review, there is lots of stuttering, frame issues, memory leaks. Post-game content is also lacking and you cannot re-challenge gym leaders as many times as you want and the Elite Four cannot be rematched. The story and true villain are one of the better experiences and almost as good as gen 4 - 5.

    If you are a long time fan, you will probably not care about the tecnical issues, but this game is pretty busted. Bad framerate, bad pop in, tons of glitches, the list keeps going. Who are we kidding, you’re gonna buy it anyway. Overall, some good pokemon designs and mechanics, its just hard to enjoy them.
