There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Now, the game itself is still Poke'mon in core concept, and some of the changes are a bit light compared to others, such as effectivness rating on your move lists for example, but one of the changes I can't believe didn't come sooner is Poke'mon Refresh. If you played X/Y or Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, you might've heard of a feature called Poke'mon Amie, which is mostly, in my eyes, NintenDogs Poke'mon Edition. It was one of those features I barely used, mostly cause I couldn't find a point in it, and even the effects felt small to me, even if it was for better exp, dodging moves, or just help in evolving certain Poke'mon. However, with Poke'mon Refresh, I feel like it's in my best to use it, especially when you can cure status conditions. I always hated having to run to the nearest Poke'mon Center to cure that one Poke'mon. Now, it's just more convenient to cure your Poke'mon than it has been before, and it actually made me want to use the other features. Another feature I really like is Poke'mon Ride. Why? Because no more HM Slaves. It's like the Soar feature in Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, but with more options to go through obstacles and traveling faster, and again, no more non-removable HMs, freeing up your move lists for your favorite moves. There are also changes presentation-wise, such as trainers standing behind their Poke'mon during battle and ACTUAL OPPONENT MODELS INSTEAD OF SPRITES. I kind of wish your opponent doesn't look a manikin after they lose, but it's a step in the right direction. Even the new Poke'Dex can tell you the exact location of a Poke'mon and gives you mission locations, via bottom screen. Overall, while there are more features and changes, I feel like these are great changes for the series thus far, making this game may favorite version of the game. Oh, and during daytime in real world, it's nighttime in-game, because that's totally not the weirdest way of differentiating the version at all, but kept within theme anyway. Customization also comes back from versions X and Y, letting you make a more unique looking trainer than just identifying yourself as a Bug Catcher or Ace Trainer.
Storywise, it's the usual Poke'mon affair. The only difference I can say is that your rival actually picks the weaker Poke'mon instead of the stronger one, i.e. a fire-type Litten vs a Grass/Flying type Rowlet, but at least he's a cheery fellow. I also like the characters thus far, even the members of the crime organization you'll fight most of the game, Team Skull, which has the most ridiculous members ever. Seriously, these guys are just hilarious, from their animations, the way they talk, to the boneheaded ideas they have, like stealing berries. Of course, I haven't finished the game yet, and I likely won't put any spoilers on the review anyway, except for berry stealing, but I feel that this story, so far, is just the typical Poke'mon affair, except with no gyms, and I'm fine with that.
As far as the Poke'mon themselves, I think they look great. I even like some of the Alola Forms of classic Poke'mon, such as Vulpix for example. Sure, there are some to make fun of, such as Alola Persian being compared to Garfield, and even Gumpshoos, in the head, reminded me of Donald Turmp when I first saw it (could be a coincidence, could be an office joke turned Poke'mon, who knows). But for the most part, I feel like a lot of the designs are great, and I haven't found too many designs to laugh at.
I do have some small problems, though, I have, such as the removal of elements. For example, in Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, you can sneak up on Poke'mon, but on this version, that's not the case. While it's a small thing, I actually liked this feature as it felt like actual Poke'mon hunting. There is also, mostly in battles and mainly due to upgrades, a good amount of slow down, which won't affect your gameplay experience, but it shows how old the hardware is, especially when they got rid of 3D (for the most part) in the game, which caused slow down in the older 3DS Poke'mon games anyway. You only get it while using the Poke'Finder, a little camera minigame more or less, which is already laggy at best anyway. I'm also not crazy about the change from Mega Evolutions to Z Moves, but that's just me.
Overall, I highly recommend either Sun or Moon. Really, whether which version to get, if both isn't an option for you, really depends on the Poke'mon you want, so I would research the differences, but other than that, there aren't that many, and even then, the two games connect to each other. If you want to move your Poke'mon from X/Y or Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, you'll be waiting until January to do that, so keep that in mind when you purchase either one of them.
1. No HMs
No longer do you have to carry around a HM slave (s). This has bothered me in the past games as I have to restrict 1 or 2 slots out of my party of 6 to help traverse certain areas of the world. In the place of HMs there are Poké Rides where you can ride pokemon interacting with them on the world map, some you may not be able to access until you've completed mission within the game.
2. Is it super effective?
No longer do you have to look up guides online (unless it's your first encounter) to tell if a move is super effective or not very effective against the pokemon you're up against. After you battle a pokemon once, the game will tell you what moves is super effective or not in the battle menu once you encounter the same pokemon the second time.
3. No Traditional Gyms
No longer do you have to battle your way through gym after gym to prove you're the best out of brute force.
There are 4 islands in the game, each of which are controlled by 4 Island Kahunas
To get to them you have to get pass Trail Captains and Todum Pokemon
Trail captain will give you quizzes, side quests to complete, and/or fight in traditional battles
Todum Pokemon. Basically typical pokemon you find the wild, but significantly stronger and have grunts that help them battle.
4. Rotom Pokédex
Typical pokedex, but with a face and personality attached to it.
5. Alola Forms
Basically different forms of pokemon you seen in previous generations. Either it's there physical form that is different and/or the pokemon's typing
6. Z-Moves
With a Z-Ring and a Z-Crystal you can use a pokemon's ultimate move once per battle. It's not like Mega Evolutions where it stays constant
7. QR Scanner.
You can now scan QR codes to get event pokemon
8. Battle Royal
A 4 player free-for-all where the battle ends after all of one's pokemon trainer's faints. They tally the win-losses of each trainer and the one with best stats at the end wins
9. Hyper Training.
Once a pokemon reaches level 100, they can go through hyper training which can improve a Pokemon's IV
10. Poké Pelago
Your PC Box now has functionality to it. It's like a day care sort of thing, instead of just depositing your pokemon, you can passively train them in the PC or have them search for items
11. Festival Plaza.
An online mode where you can battle other trainers and trade with them. You get festial coins for each interaction which you can spend on clothes, shop or upgrade your pokemon's stats. There's also missions you can undertake to get more coins.
12. Night and Day phase, New Pokemon
Pokemon Sun goes the traditional time route while Moon does the opposite. In Pokemon Moon if you're playing in the daytime, the game will consider it night time in-game. Some events also play out differently like different Totum Pokemon on the same island/trail
In traditional Pokemon fashion you can only get some pokemon in each version so trading is required either with a friend or if you own both versions. Also some pokemon evolve differently in each version now.
I'd say some of overall models of new pokemon are better looking than the last batch in previous iterations of the pokemon series.
13. Auto Run
Your run is as fast as a bike now, and it has unlimited use. You can now move in all directions instead of the traditional 4 and it feels very fluid
14. No Rod
Fishing is now dedicated to specific regions in the world. You cannot fish wherever you want anymore.
15. Photo Taking
You can now take Photos of pokemon in the wild.
16. Team Skull and Aether Foundation
Team Skull is the new antagonist group like Team Rocket, but they have a new style to them as they try act gangster-ish with their animated hand gesters/movements. They have more personality and have a darker tone to their backstory and mission.
Aether Foundation is the opposite of Team Skull as their mission is to cure injured and hurt pokemon. The group is also conducting research on the Ultra Beast (Pokemon) which is a good mystery story in and of itself.
17. Graphical Upgrade
Game looks better than the last, although there are some pixelation around the edges still. Models look more realistic than before, and the battle animations are more visually impressive. There are some framerate issues on 2v2 battles for some reason, but then again I own the launch 3DS. You may not have the issue if you own the New 3DS? It's a turn-based system so it doesn't really matter much in terms of gameplay, but the slow down is noticeable
18. Pokemon Refresh
Similar to Pokemon amie but with more grooming options
-Returning mechanics:
Pokebank return, you can now transfer all your pokemon to Sun and Moon
Clothing Options: Although more options are available, it still feel very limited.
Mega Evolutions return, but none for new pokemon from what i've discovered
Overall, love the changes to the traditional formula as it gives the Pokemon Series a nice refresh and is more streamline to play.

Hice el pedido por DHL en un "Envío de 2 a 3 Días" y llegó justo al segundo día. Hice que el envío llegara a una sucursal DHL así que fui a recogerlo ahí directamente y estaba en perfectas condiciones, el paquete era tipo sobre con plastico burbuja en el interior, ésto se debió a que en mi pedido sólo pedí copias del juego y por ende no era necesario enviarlo en caja.
PROS:
- El juego es una maravilla, la historia es la mejor en comparación a los antiguos juegos de Pókemon, está bien narrada y los personajes se sienten vivos y no sólo como otro simple NPC más del montón.
- Las nuevas mecánicas de juego como lo son las monturas para Pokémon, el cambio de Gimnasios por Pruebas y las "ayudas" contra Pokémon salvajes hacen que el juego se sienta fresco y completamente distinto a otros juegos, y esos mismos cambios hacen que hasta los jugadores más hardcore sientan un cambio en la curva de dificultad del juego.
CONTRAS:
- El inicio del juego puede sentirse eterno para aquellos jugadores que ya tengan más experiencia con otras entregas, pues el tutorial resulta bastante largo dado que sirve para enseñarte las mecánicas básicas del juego como para también ponerte al tanto del contexto en el que se desarrollará el juego, es decir, te dirán que tiene de distinto ésta nueva región y quienes son los personajes que verás constantemente en el juego.
- No se puede utilizar la función de 3D en ningún momento en ninguna versión del 3DS. Ésto puede que le afecte a algunos.
- Tiene caídas de FPS en algunas peleas, especialemente en aquellas en las que hay muchos personajes en pantalla. Éste problema sucedera sin excepción en las peleas dobles, y sucederá tanto en las 3DS normales cómo en las New 3DS.
CONCLUSIÓN:
- Aunque parezca que el juego sigue siendo más de lo mismo, los sutiles cambios en las mecánicas de juego, cómo la adición de una sólida narrativa para la trama, hace que éste nuevo juego de Pokémon sea un título imperdible para la colección de 3DS.
