Super addictive, but also has its downsides. For example in order to complete the pokedex youd probably need alot of luck or spend thousands of euros in flight travel in order to get regional pokemon like corsella. It also completely devalued any worth shinies had for them releasing one special event monthly for easy shiny hunting. The battles are also bad, its more about spamming attacks fast enough rather than tactic, in which i dont say there is none, but it doesnt even compare to the tactical abilities you need in the main line. On the good side it is great to maintain and find new friendship due to the ease of obtaining the game but also the social features like trading and raids. They update the game regularly and improve and introduce new features regularly. Though i might add that special pokemon like santa pikachu for example are locked in the game and there seems to be 0 communication to the pkmn home team to get them at least there, they also take their time to import pokemon that already released, like we still didnt got some from alola. You most likely already played it but id recommend it nonetheless to fans but more so to new people to the series, its a good entry point.
