I kinda liked it but i would have wanted the map to be different like the alola region with different islands. similar to that but more creative.

I'm not sure why everyone keeps complaining about this game. I got it yesterday to see what all the fuss was about, and couldn't put it down! I'm loving everything about it so far. I'm 25 years old, and have been a huge fan of Pokemon since the Gameboy Color.

Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield are the newest additions to the main series of Pokémon role-playing video games.

Solid and definitely has an audience. There could be some hard-to-ignore faults, but the experience is fun.

The resurgence in popularity of Pokémon that was orchestrated with the release of Pokémon Go back in July 2016 cannot be overstated, as it is still being played daily by millions around the globe even today, in late 2019.

Pokémon Sword & Shield deliver a new generation of creatures to capture throughout a consistently enjoyable adventure.

Despite lots of the hate online, I bought it to see for myself if any of the issues actually affected the classic Pokemon experience that comes with each game, and I have to say – It's good! The good parts of X & Y have come through into this game. The style of art creates a nice, chill atmosphere where needed, but in the wild, things are much more interesting and present different challenges. I definitely suggest fans give it a go and see for themselves (any legitimate issues are overhyped imo).

Although the game may not be what everyone was expecting, sword and shield is a solid entry for the Pokemon main series for the Nintendo Switch. The large and diverse wild area makes running into unexpected Pokemon always a pleasant surprise. D-Max mechanic is more balanced than Mega evolutions and the variety of gym leaders is refreshing. I finished the mainline story in under 25 hours with still much more to do and with the promise of extra Pokemon to be added in the future I am sure you will get your moneys worth in entertainment value. You can even skip most of the gyms and loose yourself in Max-Raid battles thus adding a new way to approach your play through. In all I highly recommend the game to any switch owner.

Loving the gameplay and the story

New mons are really great, designs, move pools on point. New Dynamax mechanic allows for a lot of fun strategies. Friendliest pokemon game ever where raising mons for competitive is concerned.
