Pokémon Sun & Moon feels like a few steps back for the series. The game presents many irregular, but largely disappointing decisions, which replaced the convenient functionality of past releases.

Pokémon Sun and Moon are a great shakeup of the franchise with beautiful visuals and extremely fun gameplay. We can absolutely recommend this game to every fan of Pokémon and anyone else having some interest in RPGs in general.

One of the finest Pokémon adventures ever undertaken

Honestly, Pokémon Sun is fine. Think of it as some solid fun that certainly could’ve been a bit meatier, but otherwise feels like a cautious return to form after a few less-than-stellar entries in the franchise. What we need now is for this growth and development to keep going, for Game Freak and Nintendo to keep adding new stuff that can become a permanent mainstay of the series, not a series of discardable gimmicks, like somebody dangling their keys in front of a crowd of magpies. Buy a copy if you always liked the series, but if you didn’t, this is unlikely to change your mind.

Given sufficient time, Sun and Moon has the power to ensnare just as profoundly as many of the previous games in the franchise.  And with its valuable combination of depth and accessibility (imbued with modern conveniences such as the integrated type chart hints), the game feels equal parts conservative and progressive—and is thus quite likely to please both traditionalists and newcomers.
