Glad it go a good score. The game is still a day one buy for me.

I'm not surprised but I hoped for this to be a bit lower. Reviewers should really start to give big games harsher scores, their range of scores is way to small. Now it's only 5 points below X&Y, which is just absurd.

Hopefully it still drops to 70 or something.



Who knew a Pokemon game could upset so many adults.

Good score.



Nice one. decent game as expected!



Switch!!!

82 huh nothing to write home about. Talk about the very bare minimum. And Nintendo has the balls to charge 60? Goddamn lol

Was watching some video on youtube the other day where the guy talked about his early access to the game.

One thing I found interesting was his talk of the catching mechanic. He said it brought about excitement and a nervous rush or something to that extent.

I mean think about normal catching. You use status effect (sleep, para, ect) and then weaken them. Then throw balls till caught. No worries, just time consuming. Only worry is if pokemon has explosion or like teleport, or the occasional crit killing it when trying to weaken. Barely any do and you know those dozen that do.

This new method though, the pokemon actually runs from you. You use a berry or two to calm them, ease them, make them easier to hit, ect. Then you're throwing balls and praying each throw that they don't run away upon that ball not working.

Personally, I'm OK with it.

That’s a weird statement...so a low 80s game shouldn’t be $60?



Glad I'm not hardcore Pokemon fan, the community is way too much at times.



As expected, reviewers are not judging the game based on what they wish it was but on what it is trying to do.
