The world is your Cloyster.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If there\u2019s one thing we always hope for with a brand-new Pok\u00e9mon generation, it\u2019s a sense of childlike wonder. Of course, it\u2019s not always a guarantee, especially with a formula that has been followed consistently for the last 26 years, but we always start a new generation with our fingers crossed that we’ll be charmed out of the gate by the new creatures to collect and a whole new region to explore. And if anything has come close to recapturing the real magic we felt when we discovered our first Pok\u00e9mon world in Red & Blue<\/a>, it\u2019s Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet & Violet<\/a>‘s vast and open Paldea region. It\u2019s been a while since we\u2019ve felt like a kid stepping out of our Pok\u00e9mon house and just looking at the world and savouring the taste of adventure. Despite some pretty significant technical stumbles, this introduction to Generation 9 nails that, even if it\u2019s not the new Pok\u00e9mon revolution that Legends: Arceus<\/a> felt like.<\/p>\n

Scarlet & Violet\u2019s promise of being the main series\u2019 first open-world game isn\u2019t a false one. Every inch of Paldea is ours for the taking, and we\u2019re ready for adventure just like the little kids who booted up their Game Boys for the first time and took their first steps in Kanto. Adventure awaits, and it\u2019s right on our doorstep. Except things don\u2019t start that way.<\/p>\n
