People often say you can't reinvent the wheel. Pokémon Legends: Z-A proves that sometimes you can improve on perfection, and while some changes need some fine-tuning, the experience it delivers is one I hope I'll see again from this franchise.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A offers a true slice-of-life Pokemon experience thanks to its anime-style real-time combat system and wholesome worldbuilding elements. While its single-city setting can sometimes feel a bit samey, Lumiose is densely packed with things to do and discover. This is a world worth getting lost in.

Pros

  • Real-time combat offers a major overhaul
  • A slice-of-life that feels closer to the anime than ever before
  • Memorable characters and incredible music

Cons

  • Urban setting can feel very samey at times
  • A lack of interactive buildings
