Pokemon Pearl and Pokemon Diamond, one of America's main Nintendo realated games that was top seller. It's still no. 3 in Gamefaqs ratings of top 10 games. Unlike many pokemon games this one has the most features out of all. I'm not saying it's the best one yet, but there are many pros and cons to this game.
Pros
3D graphics
Contests are easier to perform in (not for some people)
Can catch more pokemon from other regions
Can transfer pokemon from previous pokemon games (not crystal,gold,silver,red,blue, and yellow)
Gender differences
Can get different pokemon types from around the world (Wi-Fi)
Can battle, chat, trade, and draw with people in the union room
More, and stronger moves
More abilities
Pokemon changes in Weather or depending on area
Shiny pokemon are easier to find ( with the pokemon radar)
Cons
Can't rebattle gym leaders
There's no battle frontier (where there's actually a purpose for continuing the game)
Need certain places for events
When evolved a pokemon from a different country it turns into your language type pokemon
Too much legendaries
Some pokemon aren't even needed
Exclusives in both games
Glitches are only in Japanese version (like the darkrai glitch if you saw it on youtube)
Some pokemon are hard to train what so ever
It takes to much time to save if you used the PC
Graphics
Are awsome! They are one of the best ones are have even saw! You can't actually say it sucks because it's a hand held system game. I can give the graphics a 9.5 because it's not all that good but it's not all that bad. The pokemon sprites move and it sparkles when it's a shiny pokemon. The noises are all wierd at first but you'll get used to it.
Story Line
Wasn't all that bad but some stories in the story line gave some mysteries away, like the Floraroma mystery one woman said it was just a hill with nothing on it but some one pray just as hard and it bloomed into flowers. Well who does it sound like? Shaymin! Well besides that, the story was good and all with mysteries (not a lot) and suprises, well not a lot of that either. But one thing I don't like is how weak the main legnedary is when you get it (Palkia or Dialga). Well the story is pretty good. 9.0 rating!
Characters
Some are just added in so most aren't needed. But what's a story without many characters? Charcter story lines are good. Some characters you don't even need to know, so maybe they're just fillers. Some characters in the game who have pokemon just get me mad sometimes how they have some sort of pokemon you can't get at all. A 8.5 for the characters.
Events
Some are not even needed like the Darkrai event can't you just go to the island itself and get it without having to sleep in a hotel and have it invade your dream? Why do they have to put one for shaymin? It comes up at a weak level! Those two events aren't even needed. An 8 for that.
Pokemon
Are not as orginal than thought. If you look really closely to them they look like the previous ones, or maybe is like them. If you look at Infernape, it looks almost as if it's supposed to be a Blazeken. Pachirisu, looks like it just came off of a pichu or a plusle or minun. Some even have unfair advantages like Spritomb! Spritomb has no weakness what so ever! It's almost impossible to defeat one! Some evolutions aren't needed either, like Magnezone, they could've thought up of that ever since Hoenn or Johto. Same thing with Magmortar, Porygon-Z, Togekiss, Yanmega, Rhyperior, Tangrowth, Lickylicky, and Electrivire! The others are ok especially the Eeveelutions they add 2 every new region can't argue with that at all, others were from the Hoenn region. I give that a 8.
Other Comments
Besides orignality and the other stuff, this game was pretty ok. But it really gets boring after playing it for a year or two. Restarting a new file won't do either. Everything else was good. Looks like the game creators couldn't fit in anymore due to memory storage. For the final rating I'll give this game a.........................
Just as said not too good not too bad either.
