How do you even rate this game? Sure, it's filled with glitches, and it doesn't look incredible, but that doesn't mean I didn't have fun playing it. They finally nailed the rework to the traditional gyms/elite four system by adding other routes you can take along the way, while adding mandatory raid bosses along the way as well as focusing more on the "evil" team. I also like how this game is completely open-world; it's definitely one of the most free to explore Pokemon games since the originals. The story toward the end gets great, and it's one of the few times I've actually enjoyed Pokemon story. Even though it feels like we're playing a beta version of the game, it's without a doubt a step in the right direction for Pokemon, and I'm excited for future games.
