![]() ![]() This isn’t just a good foundation for what I hope will be a regular branch of the Pokemon tree from here on out. Those who have played Pokemon Diamond and Pearl or the remakes will find a lot of interesting points in both the plot and the characters. The story will also slowly unfurl, and it’s fairly interesting. As you check off research targets, your rank will increase and more of the world and its contents will be open to you. This encourages you to engage with Pokemon in a variety of ways, some of them quite novel. Each Pokemon has a number of research targets you’ll need to check off to complete their Pokedex entry.

Collecting monsters, leveling them up, and engaging in turn-based battles are still very much a big part of this game. A lot of the things that fans of the series value about it are still here. Not one of those messy ones with guillotines and cake, mind you. Let’s dig in!
