This possibly is like the worst review on here. Not only is it structured like a green text, it's filled with complaints only Pokémon fans could get mad at about a game that wasn't even released at the time of this review. Horrible review, hard to discern if you're a troll or just too online

I know many people who were playing the game before this review was made.

a few of these (mainly the music) are just a result of half of the game being in a day 1 patch but it is sad that the majority of this is still true, genuinely pointless remakes
