Pokémon Scarlet / Violet Hands-on: A big step forward for a classic series

With Pokémon Scarlet/Violet, Nintendo put an open world on a classic franchise, just as it did with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Although I don’t know if the gambling will pay off in the end, I can say that it makes the Paldea area an attractive place to hang out for an hour or two.

Instead of walking through a patch of grass between town and town, you can hop on a motorcycle/Pokemon hybrid, climb mountains, slide through waterways and basically go anywhere within your line of sight. You can follow a character-driven storyline, compete with other Pokemon trainers, hunt down giant creatures, or do none of that at all.
