This game is great and while it does need work it is super fun with friends. While being a big Pokemon fan I was hyped when I first saw this game and it did deliver.
But I keep seeing so many stupid reviews and comments about Pokemon and this game.
On the nintendo fan side you have people coping about the designs saying that they are plagiarized and A.I generated. Which they aren't A.I generated that's stupid and they are not plagiarized just simply inspired, like some of the creatures in this game do look similar to pokemon but not all of them. This is a genuinely good game and I hope that they pump out their updates.
On the other hand you have people hating on pokemon just to jump on to hate on it, saying stuff like "All the pokemon games have been terrible" in which that isn't true Scarlet/Violet were great, granted the fps issue is bad but if it weren't for that it would be an ideal pokemon game. Like man haters are going to hate.
Overall I haven't seen many reviews made people who both like Pokemon and this game. But yeah giving it a 5 stars so it could get a higher avg. rating.
