    If the switch is all you got then get Sword and Shield. It's the only main series game on the switch along with Lets go Pikachu/Eevee and the mystery dungeon remake.

    But is it even worth it? S/S has been panned pretty hard from reviews.

    I was hoping that they had some older versions in the archive, which was apparently stupid of me.

    I haven’t had Nintendo anything for a long time, so I’m getting back accustomed to their s*** with software...

    While S/S has issues out the ass. Like to me it's the worst Pokemon main series game. I only say that because for how powerful the Switch is these games should not look the way they do or be barebones. The only Pokemon games on the switch is

    S/S
    Let's Go
    Mystery Dungeon
    Pokken

    That's why I recommended that. Not that much to choose from lol if you can find S/S on sale grab it. If you want to play through Kanto for the 8th(exaggerating... Like 5th time) time then grab Let's go. Mystery dungeon is pretty fun, but it's not a long game. Pokken is a fighting game.

    Gen V. Play Black and White because they're how Sword and Shield SHOULD have did the dex purge. Then play Black and White 2. Play HeartGold and SoulSilver too.

    Is Black and White 2 much better than 1? I only played White when it first came out never 2.

    Yeah it’s way better IMO. Black/white 2 are probably my favorite games out of the main series

    I pretty much finished this joint with the expansion man this was not that good. Seemed way to cookie cutter for me. I think it’s the fact I don’t get to explore freely but compared to playing Diamond and emerald and crystal the first time vs this I’m really disappointed

    Play both. BW1 story is better than 2. 2 has more content.

    It's because these games feel like half assed 3DS games that was just ported to the switch.

    Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War uses an engine that originally dates all the way back to the first game which used a version of IW Engine 4 which was used in Modern Warfare 2, they've just been upgrading since

    not that it's the best comparison ever but...

    the engine that Pokemon Sw/Sh uses to run was indeed carried on from 3DS because that seemed like a more efficient idea than building entirely from the ground up especially given the allotted time frames to make these core series releases

    as long as the assets that the engine uses are upgraded nicely then you can push the engine for years

    but i will admit i think they pushed it as far as it can go...

    and i do think they will take more time to make Gen 9 impressive

    They need Super Robot Wars tier animations for the next game.

    You can play these games with your eyes closed since the 3ds era

    I got it for $40 and didn’t really enjoy it but the dlc was pretty good, if you can get the game and dlc on sale I’d wait for that. I bet they’ll have a big Pokémon sale this year for poke 25

    Honestly, Sw / Sh was not worth $40 IMO

    I did like most of the Pokémon, but it was just a half assed game.

    Way easier than normal, ugly game, boring and just an empty world...... all signs of a rushed / lazy game

    And they made you pay extra for all the good parts of the game (DLC)

    The wild area and DLC? That should have been how the whole game should have been, not just an area

    Personally, I would say pass on it unless you REALLY wonna play Pokémon, but overall it’s the worst game in the serious BY FAR

    It deserves all the hate it gets

    SW/SH was $60+$30 for the DLC bro smh but you right they wasn't worth $40 either.

    Two different people teams made these games. Masuda a 30 year vet made LGPE. Ohmori, a rookie made SWSH/SM/ORAS.
