I really like that Pokemon went in a brand new direction and basically made a big large Safari Zone where you can catch Pokemon all you want. The new battle system is fast paced and fun too and it felt like the game was really well balanced.

So why am I writing this review two months after I beat the game? Well, I did plan on holding off until I beat some of the post game stuff, but...I have no inclination to go back to this game whatsoever, especially after playing Elden Ring, which in comparison make this game's flaws all the more apparent. I honestly got bored pretty quickly with this game, and it did feel like a bit of a chore thinking about picking it back up each day I continued my playthrough. It looks really bad visually, overall lacking in any kind of polish and plagued by a lot of visual glitches. Although it's completely new too, I feel like it didn't add a whole lot. I like this new style, but I just wish it had so much more to offer. Oh well.
