Honestly? One of the best, if not the best entry in the Pokemon series.
Every Pokemon, every form (Besides my boy Spiky Eared Pichu), every mechanic, EVERYTHING from all previous titles included. Nothing left out. Really lets the player experience the core of the series.
Lots to catch early on. Melemele Island contains such a diverse roster of Pokemon that it's hard to keep track of without the Pokedex. Lots of rare ones, time-gated ones, hidden ones. It's very rewarding to explore everything.
Tons to do in the endgame. Also adds several new things like Ultra Wormholes that let you capture legendary Pokemon or even easily shiny hunt a decent roster of critters.
The cons?
- Extremely handholdy at the beginning of the game. Unfortunately, this is just a thing with every Pokemon game these days. You have to treat players like they've never touched it before.
- Very easy to overlevel; the games are built with team swapping in mind these days. LUCKILY unlike later titles, you can turn off the EXP All to bring the difficulty curve back to a reasonable level.

Solid entry in the Monster Hunter series. Played on both PC and Switch!
Major pros compared to previous titles? Absolute freedom of movement. You're no longer limited to just the ground.
Major cons compared to previous titles? Game felt...very linear until the very late game DLC. I understand keeping shiny new monsters behind high level areas, but at the same time, I shouldn't have to grind for tens of hours more past the complete end of the game to see the new stuff.
