This game is what very video game sequel should be. It's got the perfect blend between innovation and nostalgia.

Played the remastered version not the original.
So many new gameplay mechanics and features which is always good to see. Didn't rage so much with this so that's refreshing. Not a perfect score because this game can get really gimmicking at times. There might be as many vehicle sections as there are actual platforming levels.

Played the remastered version not the original.
Some nice improvements over the first one but still a lot of rage. Not as much as the original but enough to remove a star.

Played the remastered version not the original.
Good platforming experience, nice visuals, interesting collectibles. I'll say no video game as made me as mad as this one. It made for a memorable time but -1 star for all the rage this game made me go through.

Overrated but still a good game. Good graphics, cool story, epic legendaries and Cynthia is bae. Honestly I hate how many areas are only accessible through HMs and the limited pokedex.

Even as a 10 year old playing for the first time back in 2013, I was disappointed. Pokemon jumping to 3D is cool and all but there's not a lot of new pokemon, and most of them suck. Mega Evolution is cool but you only fight 2 of them through out the story. Story's kind of lame. Game's a cake walk even without the exp share.

These are great games, people are just salty they don't have all 900 or so pokemon and it's not a Breathe of the Wild clone. For once, the games feel like the anime with the pokemon roaming in the overworld and the crowd cheering as you take on gym leaders. -1 for no voice acting and dynamax. There are cutscenes in this game which should have voice acting but doesn't and it totally ruins the emersion. Also the DLCs are sweet.

Great story, great graphics, so many new pokemon and most of them are awesome, great music. The Gen 5 pokemon games are the best way to experience what Pokemon has to offer.

Just as good as its predecessors with more content. Also these are the only Pokemon games with a difficulty setting. Playing on challenge is some of the most fun I have ever played on a video game ever. Even 10 years later.

Good pokemon games but why would I ever play this when my copy of Emerald is sitting right beside it.

Awesome new pokemon, cool new features, Rayquaza is the best legendary ever. Overall a great pokemon game. -1 for how much you have to dive and surf in the late game. That's kind of annoying.

Better than originals and X/Y but is missing some key elements that makes Emerald so good. There is the Delta episode which is cool but it's not the same of what Emerald has to offer.

Refreshing new changes like no gym leaders. Z moves however suck big balls. The game's pacing tarnishes my enjoyable. It takes an hour before you get your starter and there's a lot of frame dropping.

Better wild area and Urshifu's a cool dude as well as Mustard but there isn't a whole lot with this DLCs. This should have came with the game at launch.

My favorite thing about pokemon are the legends and the new ones here are awesome. There's more lore to the region which I felt was missing in the original game so that's nice. -1 for dynamax adveture. Cool way to catch already existing legendaries but you need teammates and mine always suck.
