    One of the best generations by far, it has a spectacular story and an excellent competitive scene.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. In my personal opinion Pokemon sun and moon were 2 of the most fun pokemon games I have played through. This generation had the best starter pokemon in my opinion as Decidueye has the coolest design, followed by Incineroar and Primarina looks really elegant. there's not a single starter pokemon in sun and moon which I dislike which makes the game a lot better to play through as you have a tough choice on what starter pokemon you want to choose. Another great reason why I like Pokemon sun and moon is that the difficulty was boosted greatly compared to x and y as the experience share made your pokemon be higher levelled than most of the gym leaders but, in sun and moon, it puts you at the same level which makes it a fair fight. Speaking of the difficulty, the elite 4 and champion was very challenging to battle against which is a good thing. compared to the Kalos Pokemon league. they had more pokemon higher levelled pokemon and even the new Z-moves which you don't expect on when they will use them (But I'll speak about z-moves a little bit later).

    Furthermore, there aren't any pokemon in Sun and moon which I dislike. Sure, I don't really like Tapu Lele Pheromosa and Celesteela because I hate battling against them but Tapu Lele has a cute design, Pheromosa has a cool tying and Celesteela has a interesting origin. But, other than those 3 there are no pokemon in sun and moon that I dislike. some of my favourites include Toucannon, salazzle, lycanroc etc.

    However, this isn't my favourite generation as I feel like they went a bit too far when trying to make the game challenging. Firstly, I feel like z-moves are incredibly overpowered as you don't know when they are going to use a z-move and faint one of your pokemon in an instant. But, I don't mind z-moves as they have appealing animations and they made z-moves for actual moves which are terrible in competitive like hypnosis. Another reason why I don't like sun and moon is the Ultra Beasts. Most of the designs of the ultra beasts are just incredibly weird, which I guess that was the whole point as they came from another dimension but, I feel like they are just overpowered. also, Pheromosa doesn't look like a bug fighting type to me due to it's design. I'm sorry I just don't really enjoy the ultra beasts as much. sorry. Lastly, I don't like how they got rid of gym leaders and replaced them with trials. I really hate this concept as like almost every pokemon fan out there, they were brought up with battling gym leaders and not trial captains. I guess they are interesting to go through but the totem pokemon are really challenging. especially with lurantis with a castform using sunny day to boost lurantis with chlorophyll and solar blade which is super strong.

    So, overall I don't think Sun and moon are terrible games. a lot of people enjoy the trials and I can see why. all of the pokemon they introduced I absolutely love. all the starter pokemon are incredible and the games are more challenging compared to x and y. but, the concepts of ultra beasts and the trials are far too different compared to past games in which I played which is the reason why I think it's not the best generation. However, I will say, you should try this game out as it is fun in it's own way.    … Full Review »
