Arceus could and likely will change the formula forever, but its graphical identity remains somewhat archaic and underwhelming. Once again, that’s no bad thing, and I’ve previously written about how the Switch hardware is likely holding Pokemon back from being something truly special, but it’s hard not to shake my head in disappointment when Pokemon continues to knowingly go through the motions it has stuck by for years. It’s fascinating, but in terms of visuals, it still remains very familiar. The game’s Sinnoh region, or Hisui as it’s known in the feudal era, is one where humans and Pokemon are yet to form meaningful partnerships, so you will likely spend much of the campaign forming relationships and establishing societal norms that will form the basis of everything this property has stood by for decades. Pokemon: Legends Arceus will likely bring this vision to its completion, taking advantage of a period setting and removing so many of the usual conventions we’ve come to expect from the series.

Sword & Shield modernised many of these criticisms with an infinitely larger scale and a greater focus on customisation, but it maintained so many of the series’ staples that it never pushed the evolution it strived for far enough. Every Pokemon game is someone’s first, so it makes perfect sense to maintain this cadence, yet it also highlights a number of unfortunate shortcomings. There was a change of hairstyle here, a ditching of Megas there, but it was always the same basic friend. There was a sense of comfort with each new generation, like we were catching up with an old friend with all of the quirks we’d come to expect from them. To be clear, I don’t believe this to be a bad thing. Even as it transitioned to 3D, the act of exploring each new world, battling with trainers, and becoming the very best like no one ever was always felt familiar. From an aesthetic perspective, Game Freak’s Pokemon series has maintained a consistent identity ever since its inception several decades ago.
