>Though Absol was a low level Rogue Mega Evolution, there was still more strategy involved. I made sure to Protect as it used Dark Pulse which, in this battle, causes multiple hits when Lucario was stuck in the wave, I used Aura Sphere to attack in the distance and Rock Smash to lower Defense followed by Bullet Punch for a quick hit. Eventually I managed to defeat the Absol
>These battles are likely to get more difficult so I am really excited to play more.
>Final Thoughts
>While playing, the game ran super smooth and it looked great. In the segment before Rogue Mega Absol, I got a look around the city and it looked great and how I imagined Lumiose City being while playing Pokémon X & Y back in 2013. It was such a fun play and it really has me wanting to play more. It's still early and hard to say how well the new systems will work in an overall game but what I played here seems like it's a cool new evolution of the Pokémon Legends formula. It has me wanting to go back and that's always a good sign; it's new and fresh but still quintessentially Pokémon.
