If its a party game like the name says, then it will most likely suck...it'll just be another pokemon snap. If Nintendo was smart, they'd make a Pokemon RPG....

Announced quite a while ago. But it's the reason I have my cube...a party game featuring the pikachu reject you can't help but shove in a blender and set on "liquidate".

Don't worry they'll have a Pokemon RPG sooner or later.

First I downloaded the emulation to see how the game was... and because it's made for little kids(whether you like it or not) I found myself punching the attack button while not even looking at the screen.

Then I saw the anime... god it was terrible. The same thing in each series.

1. Ash seeks to beat a trainer and win a badget/medal basicly whatever.
2. He meets a bunch of moronic characters on the way
3.Team Rocket tries to screw up ash, and steal pokemons
4. Go pika
5. A stupid set of morals is thrown out to the kids watching.
6. Ash and and Pikachu have a beastily episode.

THE END (but forgetting the other 1000+ more episodes to come with exactly the same crap)

Anime sucks. Game good.

I think to really appriciate it you have to had played it before it got big. When the anime played at 6:30am and more people never heard of it than those who did. Ah, those were good days.

The concepts of the game are GOOD, but the execution sucks.

1. The game is too easy(My biggest b!tch)
2. The overall look is a bit "kiddy" and the Pokemons is whether you like it or not is something that an adult will have a harder time to get involved in.

Ehm the game wasn't really that easy.... I mean it wasn't hard but if you never wanted to faint (which I didn't) it was sometimes pretty though.
And the game has a 'kiddy' image, but still thousends of late-teenagers enjoyed it. I did. I'm 18 now and I still like it!

And you're right about the anime, always the same story. I'd give away my dog when they would make an episode without Team Rocket. Man I hate those losers!
But seeing all the Pokémon in action was kinda cool.

The game is super easy...if all you want to do is play through it. If you concentrate on actually having a good team and trying to catch the right pokemon with the right DVs, and creating the perfect movesets, following the mathematical formulas involved in some of the planning (a college actually did a study on them). High levels don't mean sh*t compared to everything else.

I've seen plenty of adults playing pokemon. Though it may seem weird seeing a guy in a suit on the train going to work playing it, but at least its being enjoyed.

Is happydude666 the only one who agrees with me.

Also speaking of late-teens who play pokemon... maybe they just want to feel little again, or simply enjoy it. (It's okey if your a late teen, but still shows that you are falling behind your age group because your most likely an outcast or simply miss understood)

As for adults who play pokemon games, they probably have no social life and are basicly low lifes.

Is 22 adult? Ok let's just say "yes". I'm 22

I think you are more of a "low life" NOT to play such a great game because you're afraid of people saying "Ha! he's playing Pokemon" etc.

It's marketed towards kids and all that, but I think the game is bloody great. So I take offence to what you said...........punk

I don't go around saying "Yeh I love Pokemon" and that, but I do occassionally play it.

I only played the Pokemon on GBC. I had Gold and I thought it was awesome.

I'm gonna get the new one for GBA.

Long live Pokemon

PS I'm working at a subsidary company of Japan Airlines, have plenty of friends, I bought my own car about a year ago. I'm single at the moment, but I'm not really looking for a relationship now.

So that totally blows off your pathetic judgement of adult pokemon players. I mean I'm not a Pokemon fan, but I like the games.
