Gotta Catch em All!
We knew that this game was coming, and my family held back and only got 2 copies knowing that crucifix crystal or whatever the inevitable director's cut for this pair will be called.
These games are remakes of the classic GameBoy Color generation of Pokemon, Gold and Silver. Your choices of starting pokemon are: Chikorita, Toadadile, and Cydaquil. Same formula as most of the games. Choose your pokemon, go on a quest to defeat the 8 gym leaders while helping people along the way. Then on to the Elite Four in your quest to become the pokemon champ. While that may sound stale, it is important to remember that they have added a lot to this game. It is not just an update of the orignals, they are reboots. There are ways to incorperate the pokemon from different regions, and many more at the Safari Zone. There has been no word yet as to any new pokemon being unveiled in this installment, but players are crossing their fingers to hit the 500 mark soon. Many of the DS features have been brought to the game, including PalPark to upload pokemon from the GBA cartridges, WiFi Battles, and the WiFi MiniGames as well.
The new feature that has come with this game is the Poke'walker. The Poke'walker is a small device you can carry around with one of your pokemon on it. What do you do with this pokemon? Well you walk around with it. The Poke'walker is a fat kids worst enemy (or best friend which ever way you look at it) a pedometer. The leveling and fighting of a pokemon on the Poke'walker is dependent on how many steps you take. This includes the random encounters and items of different rarities you can find. As a bonus there are different maps that can be down loaded to the Poke'walker, the first special one available when you upload your exclusive Jirachi to your Poke'Walker.
This is the same old greatest RPG of all time, with some new twists to it.
So who else got it?
