Much like X and Y, you have a bunch of friends that hold your hand throughout the game and tell you what to do. This doesn’t mean that Sun/Moon doesn't have its downfalls. It’s nice not knowing what you’re getting into in a mainline Pokémon title for once - it was pretty exciting doing each challenge and figuring out what to do next. Instead of just refining what made Red/Green/Blue great like in other sequels that we’ve seen, Sun and Moon offer a completely different experience, ridding itself of gym leader battles in favor of new island challenges that add a new element to gameplay. What I loved about Sun and Moon the most was that they took genuine steps in making this feel like a completely new experience.

It offers new challenges, tougher gameplay, a more streamlined experience and enough side quests and Pokémon collecting that keeps the series fresh in its seventh incarnation.

Bryan Rose, Reviews Editor: Pokémon Sun and Moon are a fantastic entry in the mainline Pokémon series.
