Pokémon: Leuchtende Perle (Switch)

Man bleibt dem Originalspiel treu und implementiert einige Neuerungen vergangener Generationen. Diese fallen jedoch nicht immer zu Gunsten des Spielerlebnisses aus, denn von einer Herausforderung fehlt jegliche Spur. Obwohl die Kämpfe gut aussehen, wirkt der Chibi Art Style drumherum optisch einfallslos und nicht mehr zeitgemäß.

If you haven’t experienced Pokemon Diamond or Pearl yet and don’t have access to Platinum, then the Gen 4 remakes on Switch might be worth exploring. Sinnoh has its own charm to it, and completionists will likely enjoy the endgame that is Grand Underground collecting.

So far, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl keep enough classic elements to feel like a comfy nostalgia trip, while smoothing over enough of the rough edges that they feel relatively contemporary with other recent Pokemon games.

I've had an absolute blast with Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, and I know there's plenty more for me to see thanks to their sheer size. With changes that lean mostly toward quality of life improvements, this is a firm reminder that Pokémon games can be extraordinary and one of the most enjoyable remakes I've played in a long time.

Pokemon's debut DS games have been remade on Switch with welcomed quality of life changes while staying close to the vision of the originals.
