Pokémon Sword - Nintendo Switch

Great game for 8 year old

Pokemon fanatic got this for his birthday. It is highly engaging and easy enough to moave along through.

Better than Expected

I play this with the kids and so far we love it. The story is fun, the graphics are better than expected and the new mechanics are much more fun than before. The downside is not all the Pokemon are in the game so there a number missing that the kids wanted. Maybe they will be in the DLC that's coming out soon. who knows.Read full review

It Was Good

Game was offered at a price that was a lot less cheaper than all the other options. I love the gameplay and have been waiting for this since the day it came out. I'm glad that I got it for Christmas.

great pokemon game

Love the new Pokemon game, haven't played a Pokemon game for many years and I'm liking all the new improvements such as the "open worldish" area and the dynamax feature

Excellent Pokémon game

Despite not having all of the Pokémon, it's an awesome game. The mechanics are as good as always, catching old and new Pokémon in the Wild Area is really compelling, and the Dynamax and Gigantamax are a new feature that feels like having Godzilla type Pokémon.Read full review

Could have been great, Game Freak did what they could in a outrageous limited deadline

There are some good and bad things about the game. But as alot people have been saying, it practically looks like a 3DS game ported to the Switch.
The bad; half of pokemon cut, models are straight up ported from USUM, literally no post-game content, worst plot and "villain(s)"
The good; Music, character customization, and gameplay itself is fine.
If you're passionate about pkmn, be weary of this entry, it may dissapoint you.Read full review

Great Pokemon game

Enjoyable game! Better than I expected, which is saying a lot for a pokemon game. Dynamaxing was more fun than I expected, and I don't miss the "missing" pokemon as much as I thought I would.

Unlike previous pokemon games, I could tell the game that I was familiar with Pokemon, and it skipped a lot of tutorials/explaining, which was nice. Nice storyline and game!Read full review

Great entry for fans!

Best game in the series for quite a while now. Some great new Pokémon and mechanics. Always tough to drop $60 on a new game, but this is a must-have for fans of the series or new Switch owners!

Great Gameplay, Meh Story

It's fun but you really got to ignore the story. The villian's motivation makes zero sense. But I mean... It's a pokemon game. People don't usually expect a god tier story.

In regards to the pokemon gameplay loop though it's a ton of fun. Love the new pokemon. Love the wild area. Dynamaxing is kinda silly but I have to admit combined with the gym music and how hype it gets when the pokemon turn into kaiju... It's just real nice.Read full review
