This game is a rushed response from gamefreak to the many Pokemon fans who were demanding a botw like/open world Pokemon game and it somehow turned out pretty good. The open world is fantastic and doesn't get repetitive due to the many different biomes in the world. There is a lot to do in the world and the side content is great. The traversal could be better but it's pretty good and lowkey a strength of the game. It's fun! In comparison to traversal in other Nintendo games like Xenoblade, it is far better. The game's story isn't deep or anything but it's good compared to what Pokemon stories have been recently. The cast is good with Arven being a standout. Anyways this game is good, go play it if you grew up with Pokemon
