Pokemon Scarlet/Violet is kind of a miracle. I hesitate to call it good but it's oddly compelling. It's a mishmash of competing ideas and new concepts bolted onto existing gameplay elements, and yet somehow it works. It borrows heavily from other games, often shamelessly, but never strays too far away from what makes Pokemon tick. It's got that familiar Game Freak jank but is also the most polished game they've probably ever made.

In short...yeah, it's alright.
