Grabbed this yesterday evening. I really really really want to get into more competitive Pokemon battling but man I struggled to find the desire to keep going. Tutorial was so long. Character creation options were so limited. Pokemon Home connection is confusing.

I’ll keep trying it though, but not a great first impression.
