Cloud in Smash Bros. is really surprising considering He's only been in spin off games for Nintendo. Glad to see they worked something out for Pokemon on the virtual console too.
The combat in this seems 100x more engaging than pokemon. Full disclosure, never played either.
I'd say definitely the opposite. All attacks are automatic in Yokai Watch except the Soultimate (touch mini game attacks). Pokemon has a pretty standard turn based combat system with strategy.
Pokemon is already a fairly straight forward and easy RPG, and this is even simpler.
I really like the art style and the over world, but the battles are too easy. Having auto attacks is silly to me. The different touch mini games for the specials is cool though.
