Since I'm almost complete with the game, I'll give it a review..*coughmyfirstreviewevercough*

I gave it a 9 because it's great game to play when you have nothing else to do, and you can actually play as Pokémon, all 386 of them!--389 if you include Munchlax...I've been waiting for a game like this for years. ^_^

Good

I like all the sounds and music it has, but some of them can be annoying. Its gameplay is great, the storyline makes you want to keep on continuing, and you can see what the items actually are. Reviver seeds are excellent, I like how Oran berries replenish 100 HP, its cool how they added in hunger, and so forth. The dungeons are neat, even though I still find them difficult. The missions I don't really care about, but they can be some times fun, some times...but I do love the cute little faces of the Pokemon, expecially the starters, I liked how you could actually talk to the Pokemon around you, and I was really happy that they made a 2nd part to the game. ^_^ I still don't understand why they gave this game a pretty poor score on gaming magazines and some sites...I think it was one of the best games they made in a while that's an RPG(THAT'S WHAT I THINK. DON'T THROW NEGITIVE COMMENTS). ^-^

Bad

While playing I found a few things that dissapointed me, but there wasn't much. One of them was that you couldn't evolve until you beat the first half of the game--but it made sense when the meteor chunk smashed into Whiscash's Pond and created Luminous Cave--still, it dissapointed me, and that it was harder to level up. Another thing was monster houses. When a monster house appeared on my game for the first time, I fainted--it made me really angery too, because I lost a lot of my important items. The caves that forced you to be temorarily level 1 frusterated me, like in Wish Cave, Purity Forest, and Joyous Tower(which I haven't completed yet).

But I do understand that they did those things for a reason, to make the game more challenging. And, for those who don't know if they should buy this game or not, well, I say definetly! This game is awesome, it has good graphics, the moves look cool in 3D, as well as the Pokémon, and an excellent way to get through a boring day. So, save up about 36 dollars, because this game is worth it! ^_^ ^-^ :D

So, here is the basics:

Sound/Music: 9/10 Story: 9.5/10 Graphics: 10/10 Fun: 10/10 As a Pokemon game: 10/10

Very good music, excellent storyline, awesome graphics, extremely fun and entertaining, one Pokemon game that really "recruits" itself to the top! ^-^
