A very buggy game, but a step in the right direction for the Pokemon Company. I hope this open world trend continues into future games

It's not perfect, but it's fun

This game feels like playing an early build of something great. Some terrible slowdown, questionable UI decisions, and somewhat lacking multiplayer leave me wishing Gamefreak could have had more time to finish what is otherwise a very fun adventure. Music isn’t great most of the time, and the story is pretty terrible, but movement and the basic mechanics are very strong and carry it a long way. I’d recommend it, just dont expect anything crazy.
