This is a great example of when a game enters your life at just the right time. It got me back into the series, all my friends played it, we all got into the competitive scene. If your looking for criticism then this entry is alright. feels unfinished in several spots, it's a pretty small, fairly underwhelming game that's too easy even by Pokemon standards. That said I loved this game, I really did and I probably have more nostalgia for this entry than for almost the rest of the series. Go in with an open mind and I hope you enjoy! And if you've played it before then I hope you were also swept away into the craze as I was or at least had a fun time
