This is a fun Pokemon game through and through. I don't think the gameplay and all is more than a 4.5/5, but that part is really fun. What isn't fun, though, are the cutscenes. I feel as if it took me 12 hours before the game was finally done telling me stuff and let me play the game, which isn't a good thing. Not to mention, the first 3 hours of this game is just dominated by cutscenes. I think there is maybe 30 minutes of gameplay during this time. This really ruins a lot of the game for me, since it felt like every 5 minutes of gameplay, I was introduced to another 10 minutes of cutscenes.
