Wow, a pokemon moba. The Pokemon Company just loves making the weirdest pokemon spinoffs and not the main line games fans are looking for. This game looks fun, but I don't think I will play it longer than a week.
EDIT: I played it for OVER A WEEK!
@Menardi Calm down buddy no one Is forcing you to play it, nor asking for your 2 cents on the matter. 🙄
Worst pokemon game ever
I think Pokemon UNITE has taught me MOBAs aren't my thing. It's not a bad game, I just suck at fast reactions. Lol.
Still, looking forward to see how this game develops.
Love this game, It just keeps on pulling me back!
I started playing it, thinking I would probably never play it again. Turns out I was addicted to it for about 2 or 3 months.
