Not a huge pokemon fan but this was a pretty good one

I do wish this rpg, open world style was the way Pokemon games would lean towards and I do not understand how this game is older than Scarlet/Violet and still runs SO MUCH better, the difference is astounding. As all the other Pokemon games, the story isn’t anything revolutionary, but it is there :).

There are a few mechanics that give this game a breath of a fresh air, I am someone who loves quests so running around and collecting or researching pokemon for people made me very happy.

I do have to point out that this game is a little more difficult than the others I’ve played, you can’t simply over level it, pokemon half my level could still spank me if the move was super effective against mine.

It is possible to complete the Pokedex without trading in this game, but I found some of them rely heavily on random event spawn chance.

Great Pokemon game, really moving away from the traditional style. Loved the crazy boss battles even tho they could get a bit repetitive. Also liked the new Hisuian versions of Pokemon they added.

Also für 2-3 Stunden macht das Spiel doch recht viel Spaß und wie viele andere bin ich auch ein großer Fan des Gamecubes und schätze deshalb doch sehr, wie man versucht hat die technischen und grafischen Grenzen dieser, hier nochmal einzufangen. Obwohl hier und da ein wenig übers Ziel hinausgeschossen wurde. Das konnte damals schon besser aussehen. Aber der Wille war da. Auf jeden Fall bin ich überrascht, es so lange durchgehalten zu haben. Es wird wirklich schnell lahm durch die Fünf verschiedenen Areale zu laufen, die vollgepackt mit Nichts sind. Aber nach dem Abspann war dann definitiv die Luft raus. Blöd nur, dass scheinbar dann erst die Legende von Arceus relevant wird. Tja, Schade.

My favorite pokémon game since Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon
The catching is fun, shiny hunting is easy but always a good time and even though the graphics are terrible.. it has it's charm and definetly grew on me. Keen for the Kalos one.

Straying a little away from the original pokemon formula does wonders for this game
