"Pokemon is back again"
Story: 8/10
It your normal runs of the mill Pokemon story. You are a new trainer(boy or girl) who wants to become a Pokemon master and defeat the evil team. This time being Team Galactic who are trying to get Dialga (who can control time) and Palkia (who can control space). This is just another normal story for Pokemon; you will have your rivals and beat the entire gym leader. Nothing-new here but it still good.
Graphics: 9/10
The graphics are still more 2 D looking but some areas are 2.5 D. The Pokemon look great for 2 D and all the places look nice and clean. This is one of the more better points of the game.
Sound: 8 /10
Some music is memorable in this game while others are not. Pokemon have their cries when they come into battle and nothing really seems out of place in the game sound department but they seem outdated which is why I am scoring it a eight here.
Game play: 10/10
This is where the game shines. It has the best game play out of all Pokemon games. It easy to understand but hard to master which is great for all players. You go around using your Pokemon to fight other wild ones or trainer ones. A new addition to this game is wi-fi which allows you to take your Pokemon on line against the world only you need friend codes to be able to fight other people so that a real let down but not much to tell the game play is still great.
Rent, Buy, pass: Well, if you are a new fan of Pokemon or been a fan since the start, then it a buy. If you are into rpg and not Pokemon itself then rent and try it out but if you hate Pokemon, this game is not going to make you love.
Overall: 9.1/10
