    It’s a pretty good Pokémon game. I gotta say i do agree with consensus that parts of the game seems rushed and unpolished. Nintendo could have done better, but at its core this is good fun.

    This is by far the best Pokémon game to date and I thought PLA would never be beaten as the best. I do wish the shinies had a sound or sparkles when getting close to them as I’m sure I’ve missed many shiny Pokémon.

    Enjoyable and a good time. Although the graphics could be improved, given the year we are in, it’s still looks decent on my OLED Switch. Overall, I enjoyed playing the game.

    I don't even remember buying this, but I love this game so much. If you can look past the graphics, the gameplay is fun and not as glitchy as other people claim.

    The newer generation of pokemon continues to draw in new and old players alike. New features and better 3d modeling makes this game a step in the right direction
