Sorry gamers i actually kind of liked this one. The characters are shockingly not unbearable, Arven in particular, and I think the area zero stuff is pretty cool. Unfortunately they're still churning out laggy garbage on a far-too-regular basis so just because i like it relative to a steaming shit pile doesn't mean it's actually...good. lol.

Pokemon games being familiar and such a nostalgic experience create this inherent bias in us. When you take a step back and look at this game in comparison to others on the platform, it is just not very good and downright lazy. Ugly textures, lazy writing, bugs galore and uninspiring end game content. Pokémon is in serious need of a new coat of paint.

Wow, that was awful. wish i kept a crash counter. wtf did I just play?

how are the BOXES laggy
glitchy mess. good mons tho


this shit's like fallout new vegas with the way it would have been absolute peak with more time in the oven

A solid game held back by the yearly release that TPC mandates.

The ability to choose which story to do is a welcome change since you're not forced to do a certain plot you don't like.

The game overall is still pretty easy although I do like Iono's and Ryme's gym battles since they require different strats (Iono's final Pokemon is immune to Ground type moves thanks to levitation and Ryme's double battle format).

Terastallization is a really fun battle gimmick and has a lot of depth. Changing your pokemon's type in the middle of battle can decide if you win or lose a battle. This is my favorite battle gimmick in a Pokemon game thanks to how in-depth the mechanic is.

Although the game does a lot right, it is held back due to being unpolished. The inconsistent frame rate holds back the game a lot. This wouldn't be the problem if TPC didn't mandate the yearly release schedule.

Worst Pokémon game ever
It looks like a pre alpha version of a mobile game
