1:58 the fps drop in classroom is amazing

So jarring

[@toybirdy]

thats pretty much teh whole game kinda you will se alot of FPS drops the game is poorly optimized.

Maybe Nurse Joy has an ulterior motive to send you off on a quest that's too difficult for you. After all what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger... and a trip to the pokemon center... also not to mention losing some money for blacking out.

7 things to do first in the latest Pokémon games: - Pop in to see (or not) old friends and new. - Stutter in amazement as you smoothly traverse the beautiful environments. - Leap into battle, and out of it too, as the game forces you off cliffs. How exhilarating! - Capture your favourite clips with the photo function. Why not challenge yourself to clip through the entire world? - Carve your own path and scale new heights! Experience a truly groundbreaking work in terms of exploration and reactive gameplay. - Witness the Switch pushed to it's technical limits as it, uh, tries to load images in a menu... - And, whatever else you do, remain unabashedly loyal to a developer and IP holder who continue to set the benchmark for polished, immersive and novel RPG experiences.
