FYI we got this game when we we got our Switch and it sat, untouched, for YEARS, until I finally picked it up a few months ago. Honestly, I REALLY enjoyed it! BUT... the first 30 minutes to an hour are very poorly done, and are soooo boring. After that it hooked me.
As someone who's favorite game in the series is the original Pokémon Red, I think this remake was quite well done. It looks great (much better than Sword / Shield in my opinion), and really trims out a lot of the fluff and grind of the classic games.
Also if he's playing, you can use the second controller to join him and casually help him catch and battle Pokémon. It's cute. :)
Let me know if you want any more in depth review or info.
Thanks, he's obsessed with Pokemon and has been glued to the game so far. I'm interested in checking them out myself and will try popping in as second player!
