Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with Pokémon's engaging gameplay, captivating story, and expansive Wild Area. Many praise the game's ease of use and accessibility, while also enjoying the open-world exploration and additional downloadable content. Some players, however, found the game's challenge level to be too simple and expressed concerns about the number of Pokémon available and the overall amount of content. Despite these criticisms, the positive feedback on various aspects of the game is significant.

    The game is great, and I wish I can just finish my review here. Excellent selection of available pokemon with the DLC pack (30$), otherwise I would consider any newcomer interested in this game to wait for discounts. Gigantimax the new mechanic introduces another new and fast way to play pokemon solo or with friends. The Link battle system is well done and the switch is capable of handling the sync really well. I am 10+hrs in and still focuses on getting all my pokemon in the 1st big exploration area.

    My kids like the new Pokemon, they say they're really cool. They say the game is really fun and the max raid battles. The graphics are good. They do wish that all Pokemon were in the game, that's why they gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

    Pokémon has become too easy of a game with these additions. The games were much more difficult in the past. It’s worth purchasing if you’ll be playing online as well. Aside from that single player may not be the best investment.

    Faith Restored

    This game has restored my faith in the Pokemon games. I was severely getting burnt out playing games that could should of received DLC like White/Black, and Sun/Moon just to name the ones that had better gameplay with the secondary versions. The DLC completely enhances the game and I don't have to regrind the game but if I wanted to I can take a DynaAdventures Legendary Pokemon with me to smash through everything in a day.

    Feels just like the series you either loved or hated if you still enjoy playing Pokémon you’ll like it. But if you didn’t like how the series was going and stopped playing your probably won’t feel and different than when you stopped.

    Coming from my middle-schooler, this is a great game. She's glad she got the Shield version because of certain Pokemon she wanted as well.

    The epitome of average

    Way too easy and feels rushed. Basically an upscaled 3DS game. Bad performance (the game lags a TON if you connect online, and experiences slowdown in lots of other areas), no voice acting, bad online (GTS removed), not much content (over half the pokemon are cut, and they haven't really added much to make up for it). There's better RPGs out there for your money, I'd only recommend this game if you're a huge Stockholm syndrome pokemon fan (who is still buying the games despite not being as pleased with them like me) or if you're fine paying $60 (plus $30 for the upcoming DLC that added the absent postgame) for a 3DS game
