    Very fun game for the first main line Pokemon game on the switch. The graphics were okay which is okay for Pokemon but not great, they cut half of the Pokemon but dont let that make you think its a bad game. It is very fun and just enjoy your experience.

    Wild area is pretty great but the actual towns and routes don't have the same amount of exploration in them. Music feels the most intense and upbeat in the series. The characters feel better written but the overall story doesn't make much use of them

    This is the Game of the Year. Sure, some of the new Pokémon were mediocre but the game play was phenomenal. Have replayed and beaten twice.

    I dont know, something about this game just couldn't keep me engaged. Normally I like Pokemon titles, but for some reason I just couldn't get going with this one. Will try again, but after about an hour of play I was already ready to put it down and pop in another title. Maybe its the fact that I know I'll likely have to cave and buy the DLC, maybe its just because it seemed a bit boring and too easy, regardless I wasn't overly impressed. The open world graphics were alright, but such a divergence from the Pokemon titles I know and love that I'm not sure how I feel about it.

    The gameplay is fun and has beautiful graphics. The 6 yo played Let's Go Pikachu and enjoyed it, however this game is for an older player.

    Nintendo has outdone themselves with Pokemon. Best Buy also proved they're working hard to meet the demands of safety in this pandemic.
