    I had bought this for my nephew who is getting into Pokemon and he fell in love with it. The new and old Pokemon getting their Alola Forms look either unique or amazing base on which version you buy. Great Game and Great Series

    I love playing this game and have played the series for over 20 years, this version is the best with new pokemon and better ways to travel. Catching them all is what I like the best and there are plenty of ways to do that.

    Incredible addition to the franchise. It has enough of the same feel to be a Pokemon game, but there's a ton of new features. There's even a post-battle pokemon refresh mini-game where you can pet your 'Mon or blow-dry off a wet 'Mon after fighting a water type or wipe the dirt off or feed them Poke Beans, all to make them more affectionate and trust you more, which boosts the amount of XP they gain in battle. I also like that you don't have to memorize what types of attacks are effective against which pokemon types. While battling, there's a note next to the attacks that says whether they are effective or not. Great game, and more to the point, a great Pokemon game. I would recommend this to people who have or have not played a Pokemon game before.

    A New Spin on an Old Classic

    This game definitely shakes up the Pokeomn formula. Battles are the same except with the new Z-Moves function. No need for any HMs with Ride Pokemon and no more gyms. Now Islands with a new set of difficulties. The team of bad guys feels forced and it's as kiddy a game as ever. If you're into Pokemon, you should still enjoy this title

    Whether you are a veteran player or a new player, this is a great installment that adds new pokemon, while also simplifying a lot of the mechanics and providing help throughout the game.

    Pokemon Sun and Moon are a great start after the lull in the past several releases. They finally included a way around IV breeding on top of having a very fun story and cool new pokemon.

    Try any 3ds pokemon game, I felt in love with Y the story was so deep to me sure someone will say hey it is a game but this game has a good message and in the end of the day that is all matters. Pokemon games are the most played games on my 3ds after Fire Emblem Bravely Default, Steel Diver Subwars best online for 3ds, Pokemon is so awesome, there is something fun like leveling up your pokemons, like IV training for competition, sharing on GTS, hunting shines in Sun I never got any shiny but trading by GTS I have many shines, Shiny Silveon is my favorite. try it you will like it., what other game require you to share, just Pokemon, it is so awesome.

    Pokemon returns to offer awesome graphics, a new world, and a great new set of Pokemon (including new takes on some old Pokemon). Great game for new players and longtime fans alike.

    This is probably the most engrossing Pokémon game I've played since I started the series all the way back in the 90's. The new Pokémon are interesting, the old Pokémon are welcome and beautifully recreated in a 3D space, and the overall map is varied and fun to explore. I really like the addition of Ride Pokémon who fully replace the need for HM moves which were always a drag on gameplay anyway. Ride Pokémon also make exploring that much easier and more to do in general. If you're a lifelong Pokémon fan I'm sure you've already picked this one up but if you were still holding out this long, just go and buy it. This generation won't disappoint!

    This is perfect for a new generation of Pokémon hunters. It's a fresh story in a new area. The gameplay pays homage to the past games and improves on the gameplay mechanics.
