Review wise the game scored pretty high but some of the critics feel that the game mechanics could use more work. They where slightly disappointed about the massive mounts of HM's needed to play the game and also complained about the imblance favoring water type Pokemon. They have how ever added some of the features that we haven't seen in a long time this includes the secret bases where we could create our own custom base and decorate it.

According to Amazon so many people have been preordering the game that they had to cancel preorders for the game for people who tried to preorder it too late.
