00:00The next big Pokemon game is actually not a real Pokemon game, and you don't even play as a trainer.
00:05Pokemon Pocopia is currently the best-rated Pokemon game of all time,
00:09and I have to admit that I was completely wrong about the potential of it,
00:13because it is in fact way better than I anticipated.
00:16But why is that?
00:17After the last few Pokemon mainline titles were kinda weak,
00:20Pocopia shows that Nintendo can deliver if they really want.
00:23The game picks some of the best elements of games like Animal Crossing,
00:27Dragon Quest Builders, or Minecraft into an insanely well-rounded package that begs to be played for
00:32hours. And you are not the typical human trainer here, but a weird ditto who somehow transformed
00:37into a human. With no explanation or memories, you are tasked to rebuild the world around you block
00:43by block. You craft and terraform, but there is a huge twist. Every Pokemon has specific habitat needs,
00:49so you need to solve this ecosystem problem yourself. You basically have to experiment
00:53with habitats to lure your favorites back in and get them all. The world is sometimes a bit weird
00:58with a surprising story, but it's definitely the most creative Pokemon spinoff ever made,
01:03and a must-have for the Switch, too.
