Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Pokémon Shining Pearl Double Pack - Nintendo Switch

Pearl and Diamond were the fourth generation of Pokemon and it's been nearly 15 years since their release. While I didn't like the remakes art style when I first saw it. Once I actually began to play it I really came to appreciate it. It reminds me a of miniature figurines, giving the entire game a diorama look.The games do have some modern conveniences for better or worse. On the plus side the load times are so much better. Gone are the days of waiting over 10 seconds as one shot a pokemon and watch its health bar slowly drain. Save times also take less than a tenth of the time it used to. Types work like they do in modern games. So fairy type is here, dark moves are super effective on steel psychic types and dark ghost type now have a weakness fairy type for a few examples. Pokemon have a wider move pool, so for example Kricketot can actually attack now, as opposed to just having bide back in Pearl and Diamond.As for mixed bag. The remakes use Pearl and Diamonds pokedex as opposed to Platinum pokedex. That means a large part of gen 4 new pokemon are only available post game. Magnezone, Lickilicky, Rhyperior, Tangrowth, Electivire, Magmortar, Togekiss, Yanmega, Leafeon, Glaceon, Gliscor, Mamoswine, Porygon-Z, Gallade, Probopass, Dusknoir, Froslass, Rotom and several legendries are only available after that the elite four. It was a bummer back than and still is now. The games trainers are also at the same levels as the original games. That means being you can't turn off the experience share your team will be over leveled before long. But on the plus side the national dex has the entire first 4 generations of pokemon available post game.That all being said it's a great remake. It's a very faithful remake and thus feels pretty different from modern pokemon games. There's less hand holding and far less cut scenes makes it a very fun change of pace. If you like playing pokemon and haven't gotten to play the original pearl and diamond or if you just wish you could play those games on a modern console. Than I highly recommend Shining Pearl and Brilliant Diamond. Overall I would give these remakes a 8.5 out of 10. -MickManga

My grandson loves it

Got this for my boyfriend and I, we've been excited for the remake. We love it.

Got this as a couples gift for my girlfriend and myself. New for both of us. Graphics are great on the switch. Getting to relive that childhood nostalgia and spend time together. Each of us got a code for more poke balls. Overall great games.

Bought it for my son who's a huge fan and he loves it

I bought the Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl Double Pack for my 11-year-old son who is a big fan of Pokemon. Initially, I was unsure whether to buy one or both games for him, as he found it hard to choose between the two. Luckily, I found the perfect combo on Amazon that included both games, which made the decision much easier. The combo allowed him to explore both games and he has been thoroughly enjoying it on his Nintendo Switch. The game has bright colors and a wide selection of cool Pokémon to discover. He can play it solo or with his friends online. I made the right choice in getting this game for him and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves Pokémon.

Pearl was my favorite Pokémon game for the DS. This is my boyfriend’s first time playing an official Pokémon game on a console. Both of us enjoy it. I wish there was a way to toggle features made to make the game easier, such as displaying move effectiveness or XP share to allow for more of the “grind” and learning mechanics. I enjoy the XP share across the team because I’m familiar with the story and just want to progress. The guide is helpful to prompt next steps if you forget what you’re doing after putting the game down, but would prefer an option to toggle ad well.

I like playing Pokemon games, even though it's casual playing. In the package, there's a code for a mystery gift for games.
