Good Game

Reviewed By: Avalle on 8/26/2007

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Pros: New pokemon, new gyms, wifi on it is awesome, the game is semi-3d now. No more link cable, wifi works with your friends no matter where they are.

Cons: The gyms feel repetitive and so does the story.

Other Thoughts: After that though is when all the new content comes in and it actually becomes pretty fun. All those 1's in the reviews were written by biased a-holes who don't know what their talking about. The game is actually pretty fun and good for people of all ages. If you wanna get that nostalgic pokemon feeling and experience a great new gameplay, get this game. It's worth the cheap 30 dollars it costs and you will have lots of fun with it especially if you have friends to wifi with.

Pros: I felt like a little kid, but I ordered this game anyways around Christmas. Pretty speedy shipment for around Christmastime too.
Anyways, I love the graphics. I like most of the new Pokemon, and it's very addicting. I've logged in over 50 hours on it already.

Cons: I'm having some trouble getting used to the new Pokemon--back in my day we only had 150 Pokemon! Lol

Other Thoughts: So maybe the attacks take a while to finish, but that's only because of the great graphics they managed to put in there.
Also, I feel a little lost at times about where to go next, but using online walkthroughs help.
Really great game though.

Pros: Full of the good ol' pokemon fun from Red and Blue, bringing back lots of nostalgic joy. Feels significantly longer- but not tediously so- than any Pokemon game yet, too... though that might be a con to some folks. More than enough wifi bells and whistles to satisfy pretty much anyone- some of them seem excessive and wasteful, but most of them are useful at least once. Use of the touchscreen for combat is intuitive, if a little slow some of the time.

Cons: Battles are slower than they used to be, probably due to the increased graphics for each and every move. Sure, it's kind of interesting to see something when you use a move, but that something shouldn't be unskippable and take a full ten seconds to end. The new generation of pokemon are, as always, significantly less interesting than the previous- which is saying something, given that the previous generation were more than a little boring.

Other Thoughts: I'm not done with it yet (surprisingly), but so far, I've been satisfied. A few things I would've liked to see fixed weren't, but overall, I'm glad I got this game. Lots of nostalgic fun, though I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who wasn't hugely into the original craze.
