A new generation of Pokémon in 3D, and a whole childhood milestone tipping into another age.

The profile rests on few votes, to take with care, but it already says something. Attachment lands just above the middle and rediscovery climbs highest, ahead of three quarters of games on the early duels, that kind of wish to find the first playthrough's surprise intact. Against that, fun and the controller feel stay lower, in the bottom third. The tension is there, quiet. You grow attached, you dream of replaying it fresh, but the pure feel of play seems to mark less, to confirm on so few votes.

In the line of Pokémon RPGs, this is the big visual leap entry. Less revolutionary in its mechanics than in its move to 3D.

So, for who? For you if you love that tender nostalgia, those creatures you like to collect and meet again. Much less if you judge a game mostly by how sharp it feels in hand.
