This game not only has a very relaxing and enjoyable gameplay, its subtle storytelling is one of the most brilliant examples of taking advantage of your own genre to tell a story.
The only Pokemon game I've (almost) fully finished and a very great one as well.
The only thing is that I played on an emulator and it glitched my items right before the elite four so yeah that was pretty sad but it's not really the game's fault it's just life.
Yeah sure it's dated on aspects like the camera and not every area is a winner and so on but its undeniable that this is one of the most important games of all time, and even beyond that is just simple fun in it's maximum expression.
The most fun that I can extract out of this game is play the open world as miles morales, put what's up danger in the background and pretend I have a ps5.
While a better story mode and a few extra modes would've been welcomed, it's hard to deny that this is one of the best fighting games ever made, and (from the very few that I have played I'll admit) became my favorite almost instantaneously.
Is very impressive how a game where you stay 99% of the time in a small booth can have not only a fantastic story, worldbuilding and charisma but also have a gameplay loop so perfect that makes you want to unlock every single finale.
