Pokémon Sword

Okay so this is my first ever switch game. Very exciting stuff. And I played this for a while and I've come to a conclusion....

Yall had no business disrespecting this game like yall have. And I'm tired of it. Yup I'm calling yalls behaviour out. Cause wtf yall on? True it is not black and white or diamond and pearl however it isn't shit like yall made it to be. For starters the graphics to ME look amazing. No fucking notes whatsoever. Everyone looked good. It still perfectly captured elements from the previous games and it felt fresh. True this isn't the best gen out there. Some pokemon are not memorable that I will admit. I managed to memorise most of the names. I specifically chose Grookey because I'm a huge fan of Rillaboom. I had no regrets that motherfucker pulled me through some of the toughest shit and trust and believe I leveled that bitch to level 100. If there is one thing that I can see why players hate it is the fact it is easy to beat. Much easier than most pokemon games.

However that doesn't apply to me because I like a easy time sometimes. And yes this is less punishing because all pokemon share XP after a battle, which to me is less grindy when it comes to roster building and yes it is easier to come across candy. However that doesn't mean this game still isn't grindy. Especially when it comes to Pokemon Collection especially if you bought the expansion pass like I have. And I truly don't care because I had fun either way. I was happy to discover a new gen mixed with the old gen. The bike designs were great.

The concept of gigantamax was so fun and unique especially for the pokemon that were able to change their designs (and I got them all) the characters were fun. Specially Leon. So much energy and cringe level he had me kicking my feet and giggling. Bless him he's silly. The expansion pass was incredible. Bringing true nostalgia, the raids were brilliant and punshining specially if you died 4 times during the raids. But yet so rewarding because you could catch Legendary pokemon. Yeah overall amazing game. My final team consisted of; Rillaboom, Gyarados, Golurk, Corviknight, Sir'fetched, Haxorous

A great mainline pokemon entry, fair bit of handholding but a great game nonetheless if you push through

I couldn't finish it. It just didn't grab my attention enough to bother with it for long. Guess my time as a child with pokemon isn't meant to be repeated. And that's okay.

I didn't really care for the story, or the national dex, but the animation in this game sucks, the legendaries are boring, and the whole experience was agressively average.

Very very mid pokemon game

I loved it so much i completed the Pokedex just too play more
