Be it Pokemon Yellow, the Original Red and Blue till the Sapphire and Ruby launched in 2003ish. I also played a bit of FireRed and LeafGreen in 2005 around sometime before that. And after that I just left the franchise because I moved to India, Pokemon games aren't really that popular here. I loosely followed the games and their regions over the years but when I heard of Legends Arceus I really wanted to get back into the franchise, and 6 months after the game launching, I finally bought the Switch and the Pokemon Legends Arceus was the first game I got. This game is a MASSIVE shift from the general dogma of Pokemon games. It's Open World and doesn't focus on the things generally Pokemon games want you to do. I'm not going to leave spoilers incase you're considering buying it and you should buy it, it's just that great. A lot of aspects have been taken from Zelda BOTW. The graphics are great and story is somewhat made for mature audiences, I genuinely felt the story could only be truly understood by a mature adult (you'll know what I'm talking abut if you play it). It's interesting, really fun and intuitive. It's kind of warming to know you can feel an authentic bonds with the Pokemon you raise and can fully interact with them in ways the past games would never let you. 10/10 recommend. EDIT: I played the game for over 100 hours at this point, after my previous initial impressions. Here are some few other stuff I'd like to say. The graphics are strictly fine. Coming from the biggest franchise in the world, it should be way way better. There are some areas which are really choppy and feel like the game is running on 10 FPS or less, lol. Coming to the gameplay aspects, it's really really fun. Where it's lacking is the AI of the Pokemon themselves. I mean they're just there in the overworld, hanging and mucking about doing nothing. No interaction with the environment and each other. You will occasionally find some Pokemon sleeping here and there, and doing unique stuff which kind of excites you but should've been more appealing. I just completed the living Pokedex, and it was a grind. it was a HUGE grind, but I enjoyed a lot of it. One tip I can give is, finish the respective Pokedex entries till level 10 of each area, it will take time to clear an area but it'll be more fun too. After which shiny hunting got a lot easier. If you enjoy gathering and switching Pokemon and the free to roam aspect in Pokemon, it's a must get. It's a snappy game.

There's also plans for DLC to add Goku and spiderman to the dex. **Q: Does this have a set release date yet?** A: 1/28/2022 **Q: If you pre-order it do you get anything else with the game or just the game?** A: I was looking around for the best bonuses for preorders and this is what I found about the outfit … "The Hisuian Growlithe Kimono Set will be gifted to early purchasers of the Pokémon Legends: Arceus game. You can receive it by choosing Get via internet in the Mystery Gifts* feature in your game, up until May 9th, 2022 at 4:59pm PT. Then, dress yourself up in this Hisuian Growlithe Kimono Set! Players who purchase and download the game before May 9th, 2022 at 4:59pm PT from Nintendo eShop will get an email with a code for 30 Heavy Balls which can be redeemed through the Mystery Gifts* feature until May 16th, 2022 at 4:59pm PT. Heavy Balls have a higher catch rate than regular Poké Balls, but you can’t throw them quite as far." The Pokémon Center gives you the Sitting Cuties plush of Arceus, but I want the outfit set more cuz the plushee is only about 4 inches tall. **Q: GameCube controllers, pro controllers, and joy cons，Which controller is more suitable for this game？** A: I've played a little over 50 hours of the game at this point, and I've used the joy cons attached to the switch, the joy con connector to make it a smaller controller as well as a pro controller. I'd say any of those ways is a viable means to play the game. Just depends on your preference! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OG Pokemon Player Making a Comeback! *by S***A on 30 August 2022* I started playing Pokemon since I was a child on the very first Nintendo consoles.
