Pokémon Ultra Moon - Nintendo 3DS

It was a good game. I played Moon when it first came out, I figured might as well get Ulta Moon too. I feel like this is everything Game Freak/Nintendo wanted to do with the original Sun and Moon games, but they just ran out of time. Overall the story is pretty similar to the original Moon with the exception of adding in the Ultra Recon Squad or whatever it was called. Anyways, they revamped some tracks and enhanced some graphics which made the game feel a lot more polished. Uh basically if you wanna buy this Id recommend it. Its a pretty fun game. Theyve also upped some of the difficulty thankfully, so theres a lot more challenge compared to Moon (to me at least, but maybe not to everyone.) Ive been playing Pokemon games for like 14 years and this ones in my top 5 for now.

Great game for play all the time, are very funny.

The game play is really fun but a lot of my friends ( myself included ) that this could have easily been a DLC to buy rather than its own game.

so, I love pokemon. No matter the game. This one was advertised as a alternate universe which I guess it is but I had to check the game cartridge and the title screen when I started this one since it was the same as Moon. Same intro, same house, same mom, same people. It seems incredibly lazy to me and made me really sad. If you are going to update a game - we have the nintendo Eshop now - you can do an update or an expansion there. Please dont make me get excited and pay $40 for a new game expecting it to be different. I was really excited for this one for a long time. I thought it would go more into depth with the end characters in moon. like an expansion or how Black 2 did it. But, now I am basically replaying moon. I will be skeptical for the next time the Pokemon Company does this. I will probably not preorder unless its obviously a new game... Come on guys, this was so lazy of you!

I want to say that Ive been a long time Pokemon fan. Ive played Pokemon Red and Blue during my childhood and played every gen except 4 and 6. Ive noticed a decline in the series after Gen 5. Cut scenes were long, lack of special events, super friendly rivals, easier games, etc. Despite this I still loved Sun and Moon and they are probably behind Pokemon Black and White 2 as my favorite games. Sun and Moon introduced Poke Ride killing HMs which is something weve wanted for years. Gyms were gone in favor of island trials and while the execution couldve been better it was very refreshing. Ultra Sun and Moon brought hardly anything new. You start in the same town and if fact the game feels nearly the same for 30%. There are small changes like the Gym leaders and the story and also the ultra recon squad but it all felt like DLC. The ultra recon squad didnt feel like they had significant part or influence on the story. Overall the game left a very bad taste in my mouth and I forced myself to finish game, afterwards never picking it up again. If you played sun and moon Id skip this one for sure.

I pre ordered through amazon and was hesitant to finally sitting down to play the game since there are so many negative reviews but i just have to say its still pretty good its the same exact story they just changed it a little bit here and there and added new stuff seems more like an upgraded/remake of the first ones (like pokemon platinum) it is worth the money cuz pokemon games r always like this idk y people r complaining about it. Maybe they just released the games too early? But o well im extremely happy with my purchase of the game Would rate it more stars if i can :)

This is honestly just kind of lazy in design. With few exceptions, if youve played Pokemon Sun and Moon, youve played this one. Some people have different pokemon and they change a few locations marginally, added a mini-game, but the only real improvement is that there are far more pokemon available to catch. The story is changed very little, but what few changes there are ruins the story. The only worthwhile content comes in the endgame when some old faces from previous games return, and it is over way too fast. Im glad it didnt cost as much as Pokemon Sun and Moon, but honestly this should have been $30 tops at release for how copy and paste the game is. Only hardcore collectors or people that skipped the previous games should buy this, Im regretting my own purchase.

I think it is good. However if you are looking for something totally different from sun and moon you wont find it but if you would like to play through Alola again with some things added or changed I can recommend it.

If you played Pokemon Moon and youre a die hard Pokemon fan youll probably be mildly disappointed while playing this. A decent amount was added but I feel as though not enough to make it worth the price. In my opinion the content in this game should have just been in the first one, Moon, and then thats that. No Ultramoon. Or maybe made the extra content dlc for Moon not a full blown game where 70% is exactly the same.

I want to be the very best, Like no one ever was. To catch them is my real test, To train them is my cause! (I will travel across the land, Searching far and wide. Each Pokemon to understand The power thats inside!) Pokemon! Gotta catch em all! Its you and me, I know its my destiny! Pokemon! Oh, youre my best friend, In a world we must defend! Pokemon! Gotta catch em all! (A heart so true, Our courage will pull us through!) You teach me and Ill teach you, Po-ke-mon! Gotta catch em all! Gotta catch em all! Every challenge along the way, With courage I will face! I will battle every day, To claim my rightful place! Come with me, the time is right, Theres no better team! Arm in arm, well win the fight, Its always been our dream! Pokemon! Gotta catch em all! Its you and me, I know its my destiny! Pokemon! Oh, youre my best friend, In a world we must defend! Pokemon! Gotta catch em all! (A heart so true, Our courage will pull us through!) You teach me and Ill teach you, Po-ke-mon! Gotta catch em all! Gotta catch em all! Gotta catch em all! Gotta catch em all! Gotta catch em all! Pokemon! Gotta catch em all! Its you and me, I know its my destiny! Pokemon! Oh, youre my best friend, In a world we must defend! Pokemon! Gotta catch em all!
