About The Game
The newest chapters in the Pokémon™ series, the Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet games, are coming to the Nintendo Switch™ system later this year. As the main character, you can explore a wide-open world at your own pace, and can encounter the Legendary Pokémon Koraidon in Pokémon Scarlet and Miraidon in Pokémon Violet. In these games, you’ll be able to enjoy the iconic adventures of the Pokémon series, like battling against wild Pokémon and trying to catch them!

Explore freely in the rich open world of Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet
Trainers can explore an open world where the various towns and cities have no borders and blend seamlessly into the wilderness. Pokémon can be discovered all over this expansive region— in the skies, in the seas, in the forests, on the streets, and more! Your outfit will vary depending on whether you play Pokémon Scarlet or Pokémon Violet. After their release, the Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet games will be able to link with Pokémon HOME.

This looks pretty cool. Very surprised that they made this so soon.
To be honest as of this comment. I've got mixed feelings on its announcement.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Pokemon there's no denying that. But this feels WAY too soon, it was announced only a month AFTER Legends Arceus released. It looks promising but because of the lacking Sword and Shield, its made me more aware than ever and now? Its gonna a lot to get me on board with this. I seriously hope GameFreak delivers
Honestly, This generation looks AMAZING compared to last generation. The starters are cuter, The legendaries look cooler, the professors are hotter, you can explore the world with 4 of your friends online, It has to do with the past and the future, and the game is open world. This is the pokemon game we NEED
I'm the pokemon fan this games is great l love.
I can’t wait to play this game
I hate it when people call Nintendo Switch "weak". It's not. Yes, it's weaker than newer consoles, but it's not weak. People overuse relativism. Game like Pokémon Scarlet / Violet is not something extraordinarily demanding in terms of tech. Also, it's an exclusive title. The only explanation is that the developer did a poor job while optimizing the game, period. Don't fall into this trap of thinking that "not the best equals bad". It's the same in the Apple universe - people tend to forget that the power of next gen iPhone is almost the same as the previous one. The system doesn't change much, but users would still think they need the newest iPhone to be up to date. This is just insane!
An amazing game that runs like trash. Another 3-6 months of optimizing the game with another team or something could have made this one of the best switch titles. Instead… well, I still think it’s great but it’s just sucks to think how much better it could have been.
I’m stuck on the star barrage and only 1 Pokémon has entered the battlefield and it’s not fighting anything can you please tell me how to fix it
@shinxr4y have to buy it already already come out.
I finished all three stories in a week, but I’m still playing for some reason.
