So do I get it or not?
I completely skipped Sword and Shield btw. But this game looked more interesting. I'm worried though because I've heard there's more focus on catching Pokémon than fighting. Are there still battles in this game, or is it basically just a boring training sim?

Sword and Shield is superior because barely better graphics. So grab them first.

What keeps it interesting? There's more than just catching the same pokemon over and over again to fill progress bars right?

There are very few trainer battles. Like maybe one or two an hour. SwSh is infinitely better than PLA if you want an actual Pokémon game about battling Pokémon. If you want to be a self insert autist who needs to use the game as a form of escapism then maybe grab PLA. SwSh and BDSP are miles ahead of PLA in terms of content and being Pokémon games. You barely even run into wild mons in PLA, cause there's only ever two or three on screen.

No, this isn't a true Pokemon game.

If you like open world games then this is for you. Plus it’s different than your average Pokémon game. No gyms, no pesky trainers. Basically you battle a bunch of Pokémon and are assigned missions and requests. I say it’s worth it

This game is a goddamn embarrassment and being released back to back to Elden Ring is only going to make it more apparent.

Most Pokémon fans don't care how Pokémon compares to other games. They just want to consoom Pokémon media. The fact that the board is filled with brainless praising of PLA should attest to that.

*sigh
I was just really hoping to get a fun new game for switch. I haven't used it in months.
Any other new switch games to get or look forward to?

Don’t pay attention to any of the negative backlash on /vp/. If it’s something you think you might like, buy it. Watch a couple of play throughs on YouTube and make your decision.

If you like a game you must write an eloquent and studious dissertation as to why in every post you make or else it DOES NOT COUNT!!!!!!!

its a completely different motivation to the game. normal mainline game is all about getting the pokemon so you can defeat a gym leader.
this game the drive is all about collecting everything you can for research.
so 90% of your time will be just exploring and searching for pokemon.
think of it like pokemon go in playstyle.

Get SWSH instead. PLA is the worst Pokemon game in the series.

This, but with actual sequels. If there's an actual improvement from the initial game, wait a few years and get those instead.
