Yknow what? I’ll say it. Scarlet and Violet are great Pokémon games. The open world is fun, the gym leaders have added personalities and quirks, the 3 storylines being flexible allow for relatively fresh replays, the characters are fun and have unique designs, and the Great Crater is cool and interesting. Arven is one of my all time favorite, Nemona is an adorkable battle autist rival who’s also cute, and Penny is a fun neet that actually cares for team star, and the team star bosses are more complicated and better written than almost ANY antagonists in the series. Just my opinion. They aren’t my favorite, but they’re full of soul and charm. Thoughts?
