It's a fun game. The new battle system is simple but fun, it has Pokemons usual type system but melds it with a action/positioning aspect (eg you need to command your mon to fight in a different spot if the opponent lays arena effects like spikes or fire spin out on the field) and actually exploring the city is fun and consistently has me checking back alleys and hidden spots, it's a very dense city. Battles flow extremely naturally into and out of the exploration as well.

The only downside to me is the poor visual detail and sameyness of the buildings, and lack of visual variety in general (I'm 20 hours in and there is no weather, which I'm assuming is a thing, and the fact they made a game set in a city and didn't include weather variety like rain is fucking crazy to me). If the buildings had more visual detail and there was weather it would go a long way.
