COOL GRAPHICS AND MOVES

Graphics are not that good but there better than the others. The HMs are better too. I also like the underground game with traps and spheres. COOL

The first real pokemon game in a while.

Finally, a real Pokemon game. Not Pokemon Dash or Trozei(?), this one (or two) follows the original formula. First off, the touchscreen. Its used for selecting battle commands, navigating menus, and other unimportant stuff. Its a nice addition but doesn't revolutionize the series(not really a bad thing). Graphics have improved and sound is basically the same. Combat is the same but that's definetly not a bad thing. The big thing is the new Pokemon, abilities, and new territory to explore. Wi-fi is also cool for trading and battling with friends. But I have a few complaints: only one button can be used to equip an item, they should have allowed the Y and SELECT buttons for that(to make our lives easier). To many HMs also gets annoying, the Wi-fi interface is uncomfortable, and it's getting hard to remember all the differnt Pokemon and their abilities, evolutions, etc. But it's still a good solid game that any Pokemon fan should pick up.

Reviewing Pokemon Diamond/pearl

the pokemon are cool but I think the gameplay is very same no originality not like pokemon ranger where you had to catch the pokemon instead of capture in a pokeball.

Pokemon Diamond/Pearl

Seems like a good game, the touch screen comes in handy sometimes and the all new pokemon makes it worth buying.

nice game

overall it is a good ame but at the same time the boy in the game looks a little gay with the scarf why can't the person look as gangsta as the main character in pokemon red version withhis hat tilted and plus we should be able to face the main character from previous games just like gold and silver when you go to silver mountain and you get to battle the main character and i also miss going into different regions like in gold and silver and getting more badges i personally don't care about the day and night make the game longer and bring back features that people actually want this game is good but it missing too much and it has so many holes just like swiss cheese.

A much needed Upgrade

This game is as close to perfect a Pokemon game has ever gotten since Pokemon Gold/Silver. I was very iffy about how they would use the DS to innovate this game, They don't do a whole much, but they don't butcher it. The graphics took a big step up, putting on some 3-D effects. The Pokemon seem somewhat predictable, but thats understandable since this is their 4th or 5th installment of this series. Strip away the kiddy theme, and you've got a great RPG. This game is enjoyable from casual gamers to hardcore folks. Enjoy!

This is a very good DS game.It's one of the best ones i've played since it came out.It has different graphics besides the Ruby or Saphirre. You can also transfer your pokemon from Ruby or Saphirre to the game without having to have your freind come to your house and use thier DS to trade pokemon to your game.Well I just bought this game its really cool and if your a poke-fan you shoud buy one of these games.
