At one point the game warps you to the building next door so you don't get lost. The wild area is empty and full of pop in. The battles are as easy as Gen 7. --- SW-8316-3213-4720 |

| CM_Ponch 11/12/19 1:58:14 AM #72 | Hypothetically, let's say I was playing it. Hypothetically the game is fine for a 3DS game. Like I would have zero problem with this on the 3DS,but as a Switch game it's disappointing. The biggest flaws are the amount of hand holding and the corridor routes that kill exploration. The wild area is flat and boring. Hypothetically of course. --- SW-8316-3213-4720 |

They'd b**** that being able to catch Pokemon ten levels higher than the surrounding areas would trivialize the game because Gamefreak can't win. They do one thing fans are angry, they try to fix it fans are angry again. Its like trying to solve a puzzle with no answer.No, people in this topic have already provided better solutions.
