But then, why were they upgraded? Ultra versionsĪ year after the original release, they released upgraded versions called Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Not To mention there’s a ton of new cool pokémon in here. They added different island challenges, legendary creatures that are part of the Alolan folklore, and much more. One of the most interesting things about these titles, and what set them apart from all the other Pokémon games is that they changed one key mechanic: there are no longer gyms, Set in the tropical, and very Hawaiian, Alola Region, Pokemon Sun & Moon were a different take for the main Pokémon series. But keeping in mind they upgraded these titles literally a year after they released, we have to check out what happened, So, let's talk about it. Game Freak released 8 main-series Pokémon games, and today we'll talk about Pokémon Sun and Moon. And since it was a really successful console, it's natural that many of the most popular franchises more than a couple games for the portable console. The 3DS was Nintendo's lifesaver for years after the Wii U completely slopped out. The wheel may not have been reinvented in Pokémon Sun and Moon, but I feel the better graphics, more streamlined menus, and the tighter battle system make this a much better experience. I think as well as the battle, the overall gameplay is much more refined. There are also these new Z moves that you can use once in a battle. The battles are much easier to do and the way the game gives you more information about what your attacks do is great and welcome addition.

Of course, a huge part of Pokémon games is the battles and the battles in Pokémon Sun and Moon feel great. The new Pokémon are great and the way that they fit in with the setting gets you even more invested in the game and makes you really want to catch them all. The new starter Pokémon are great and while most people seem to love Litten, I must admit that I am a Rowlett man myself. Honestly, I got just as much of a kick out of seeing these new versions of classic Pokémon as I did the new ones. They have done a great job in giving some of the older Pokémon like Grimer and Exeggutor have been given an Alola makeover to make them fit in with the new setting. Of course, a new Pokémon game is going to bring with it a whole host of new Pokémon, but before I get to that I want to talk about some of the old classics. You will also want to explore to see what other secrets this region has. The larger world that you have to explore keeps you on your toes and while you will be going out and looking for items and battles so that you can grind.

This whole region feels like it is alive and there are very few places that are just empty space. The Alola Region that you will be exploring is the richest and most fleshed out of any Pokémon game that I have played.
