A solid game held back by the yearly release that TPC mandates.
The ability to choose which story to do is a welcome change since you're not forced to do a certain plot you don't like.
The game overall is still pretty easy although I do like Iono's and Ryme's gym battles since they require different strats (Iono's final Pokemon is immune to Ground type moves thanks to levitation and Ryme's double battle format).
Terastallization is a really fun battle gimmick and has a lot of depth. Changing your pokemon's type in the middle of battle can decide if you win or lose a battle. This is my favorite battle gimmick in a Pokemon game thanks to how in-depth the mechanic is.
Although the game does a lot right, it is held back due to being unpolished. The inconsistent frame rate holds back the game a lot. This wouldn't be the problem if TPC didn't mandate the yearly release schedule.
