Pokémon Ultra Sun (2017 Video Game) User Reviews

Not nearly as good as its previous games!!!!!! (SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!)

[ABigFatOrange12 · 3/10 · 26 October 2018]

This is not going to be a fun one..... Let's get this over with.

Lets start with the positives because we all like to be positive on this ruined planet :D. For starters, it looks gorgeous! All scenes with Necrozma, Totem Pokemon Introduction and the credits look amazing! The new ultra wormhole feature is pretty good making shiny pokemon more fun to find, but you can also try find ultra beasts rather than "go to Exeggutor island" or something like that.

However, that is when all the positives end D: It was fun while it lasted......... 1) The story is virtually the same except the climax. 2) Hau, despite me liking him, still has no character development (or very little!) 3) Festival plaza was not fixed! 4) No new alolan forms! 5) Event pokemon are just as easy to get 6) Team Rainbow Rocket felt rushed, all you do is fight the team leaders with no references from the past aside from ghetsis and giovanni but even their text felt forced!

Overall, this game is a waste of money, do not buy and avoid at all costs! Buy Pokemon Moon/Sun, a much better tittle .

Better rack up on revival herbs.

Ultra moon and sun are fun games due to challenging Totem Pokémon. I'm use to sweeping gym leaders fairly easy to get my button. In ultra moon, I struggled a few times just to beat 1 Pokemon.

Opening of the game there is a lot of boring dialogue with no voice-overs. I tend to spam "A" because it's pointless to read an hour of cringe.

The characters are cringe especially Hau and The professor.

Your character looks boring and cringy. They are always happy. They don't get to talk so it makes them feel as if they are mute.

Game Freak has dialogue options but each one of them is pointless and does not change the story or anything for that matter.

The wild Pokémon, to legends, too mythical to beast are fun and tough to battle against and with.

They story is the same as sun and moon. Its boring. Hau is annoyingly cringe. I wish my Infernape could fire punch him sometimes.

The villains are waste.

Graphics wise its beautiful.

Pokemon league can be tough if not prepared. I swept it during my first to runs when I played Moon, but returning after 4 years of not playing I struggled a bit.

Ultra sun and moon are fun games. Game duration is about 72 hours with limited break. With long breaks a week or 2, 3 minimum.

The post game was the best I've played through. I've been playing Pokémon since Red and only ultra moon has made me struggle so much during battles.

Verdict: I feel Pokemon sun/moon and ultra moon/sun was a just quick cash grab. They kind of released the same game with only 10% differences. I feel like Game Freak and Nintendo knew what they were doing.
