I stopped playing Pokemon after Gold/Silver.

I really wish the franchise "grew up". The fact that the cartoon is overly chilidish and the brand is still childish, leaves the rest of us older kids, to be absolutely grown out of it.

From a video I saw, it looks like another ruby/sapphire souped up with multi-player options.

Pretty sure its the same formula: Few different pokemon, the "godly" pokemon at the end is probably different, and probably the same quest otherwise >_>

Well it's not like there's going to be no more little kids ... the company that makes Pokemon will continue to regurgitate the same old material again and again because to the new generation it's supposedly new and different.

Sister and her boyfriend are getting pearl/diamond; I will just ahck it from them :D

Yes, the strategy is good, but they are running out of ideas for good Pokemon, i.e. balanced movesets, or things that look original. Also, the plot is becoming increasingly generic. I think you should have to save the world as a MAIN quest, not a sidequest (getting badges is the main quest, always)

i ordered mine online( im not going in the store as a 20 year old to buy this shit forget that.) and think it should be fairly entertaining for a while like all the other ones were. i wish they would have added all the other regions into the game also and make it a huge rpg/strategy type game instead of a mini one =((((. i dont even know if it is possible though i dont know what the space limitations in a ds cartridge is and how much of it they used for this game etc.

Its a pretty good RPG game to be honest, the PvP aspect of it can get pretty intense and serious. All in all, pretty enjoyable if you can look past the cartoon and kiddie characters.

Oh sure I'll play it. I'm 23 but I love playing pokemon games. They are just too good to be missed just because of the attitude like : "Omfg it's game for lil' kids".

Just got the game sometime back..and here's what I thought.

The game is pretty much the same so far, but the Pokewatch or whatever they call it is a pretty neat addition. Although, I was hoping they would speed up the game a bit and use the touch screen a bit more.

I stopped really playing after Gold/Silver, although I did run through Ruby/Sapphire once.

A Pokeyman MMO would be nifty. Flying Pokeymen can fly you to different cities and junk, you can duel (think WoW) with your Pokeymen and such. There can even be random events where Mewtwo attacks Cerulean every month or something. There are so many ideas for a Pokeyman game other than the same old "Gotta Catch em' All" crap =/

Damn. I'm gonna have both in a few days when my sister comes back. She hacked it so I can have it soon. Her boyfriend has the other one. I've heard reviews that the game is decent, and has a bunch on new innovative gameplay designs, too.

My ROM bugged out on me so I stopped playing. It's ok though, I got a good 10 hours of gameplay in. Enough for my yearly Pokemon fix. :[

It probably has something to do with the DS' wifi. So you can see who else is playing and challenge them to fights when you're playing.

You have to patch Diamond. No fix for Pearl yet, I think.
