Pokémon Sun and Moon Reviews
With enough new features and change-ups on franchise staples to hold a surprise for everyone, Pokemon Sun is one of the best reasons to have a 3DS, and is the kind of adventure that is perfect for serious fans of this series and newcomers alike.
There’s post-game content galore and a total of 801 new Pokémon to catch. No one can say that there isn’t enough to do in this game.
Pokemon Moon is a great game for newcomers, returning Pokemaniacs and avid fans, and in fact it’s the greatest Pokemon game since the year 2000.
Finishing at a total of 40 hours, this game has been very enjoyable from start to finish. The fun doesn't even stop there. With all the activities that you can do, the pokémon hunting, and proving to everyone that you're the very best, this game has a lot to offer to new and veteran players alike. I leave you now with this verdict as I go back to catch my next pokémon. Gotta catch 'em all!
Pokemon Sun and/or Moon is one of the best titles you can play on 3DS. The new alterations to the Pokemon formula definitely bring it up to modern-day standards plus it has a compelling story for gamers of all ages.
Pokemon Moon is the best 3D Pokemon game to date. This game is much better than X and Y.
There are some annoying omissions, but Pokémon Sun & Moon are so charming that it's easy to forgive their shortcomings. The island setting of Alola is bursting with detail and this is the best the series has ever been as far as the story and characters go.
Pokémon Sun and Moon are GameFreak’s best versions yet
Für sich genommen sind Sonne und Mond eine würdige siebte Generation, während das Konzept Pokémon nach 20 Jahren stagniert: Die Faszination blieb diesmal aus.

So, on a closing note, what do I think of Pokemon Sun and Moon, having played every single entry in the main franchise? All I have to say is that I love Pokemon Sun and Moon, and has now wormed it's way as one of my favourite generations of Pokemon; I look forward to the innovations Game Freak will eventually bring with Generation 8, or even with the Diamond and Pearl remakes that everyone basically know are already confirmed at this point.
Pokémon Sun and Moon are some of the best in the series, no doubt about it. If that's all you're looking for, then I can assure you that this game does many things well and you'll enjoy your time in Alola immensely. If you were hoping for something more, though, well... at least it's still good for a Pokémon game.
Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon deliver the most striking evolution that the series has ever seen. This is the most ambitious that Game Freak has ever been, and the Alola region's tropical paradise is all the better for it. Basked in sunshine, this is an adventure that celebrates everything that we have come to love about the series, while delivering a truly innovative Pokémon experience that successfully redefines it for a new generation.
Pokémon Sun and Moon are a great shakeup of the franchise with beautiful visuals and extremely fun gameplay. We can absolutely recommend this game to every fan of Pokémon and anyone else having some interest in RPGs in general.
Pokémon Sun and Moon are giant steps forward from a series that might’ve been getting stale, and it’s hard to remember a time when the series was this engaging and enjoyable.
Pokémon Sonne und Mond konzentrieren sich anfangs etwas zu sehr darauf es Einsteiger leicht zu machen, bieten aber im späteren Spielverlauf doch einiges an Herausforderung und Überraschungen für Fans der Serie. Nach Pokémon Go könnte Sonne und Mond es endlich wieder schaffen auch Oldschool Pokémon Fans zu begeistern. Bei uns hat es auf jeden Fall funktioniert und daher gibt es eine klare Empfehlung von uns an alle Pokémon Fans.

Game Freak managed to surpass its previous versions again, I totally recommend this game as one of the games that you must have in your 3DS.

Pokémon Sun and Moon are a mixed bag. Change for the sake of change doesn’t always yield the best results. The games fall into this trap from time to time. But there are a lot of things that Sun and Moon do right.
After 20 years and 6 generations of games, Pokemon Sun and Moon is one hell of a breath of fresh air for the franchise. The new title ignored several known game foundations in the series to bring some new features. The island trials as well as a mixture of ancient and original Pokémon is an ideal mix, topped with an exciting story (for once), which will please all fans of the franchise.
Pokemon Sun and Moon is further proof that the 3DS may be the greatest gaming platform of the last decade
