This game was a major part of my childhood. It was one of the few Wii games I ever owned, and it was the first game I ever 100%'d. After over a decade since originally playing it, I really wanted to go back and play through it again.
Pokepark is such a cozy game. You just explore fun locations, play minigames, and try to befriend the pokemon around you. It's one of those games where it's just a soothing time, it never really gets intense. Throughout the entire time I played this game, I felt tranquil, and that's just nice.
The minigames were rather nice too! They're very much wii minigames, requiring you to move the controller around in some way, but they were rather easy to complete. And for a game like this, the minigames never bothered me one bit. I also love trying to befriend Pokemon, the little games you have to do are really fun too. Hide and Seek was a rare one, but I love whenever it appears. The combat ones are also fun as hell too.
Overall, Pokepark is just a nice and cozy time. It's one of those games that you can really just sit back and relax too, especially if you need to just chill. Though, I do hold a lot of nostalgia for this game, so that might just be me.
