Taking a trip to the Pokemon Colosseum was not as bad as I thought it was going to be...because it's pretty good. I'm impressed, since Pokemon Stadium 2 had been released; this game puts it to shame. With more pokemon, more challenge, and more depth -- this game truly tests how good you are with your Pokemon.

From battling in deserts, to abandoned hotels?, to actual arenas/colosseums; it's all here; it's all great, and now I need a beer *gulp, gulp*. The plot? Yes, the one thing I'm dead against. I'm not a big fan on it; considering the characters in it get the award for being the least convincing and more boring characters in the history of video games. Also, the animations of the characters while travelling from place to place looks silly and somewhat pathetic, unless you like to see yourself running like a robot; prepare to be somewhat disappointed.

Overall, Pokemon Colosseum is for some people and not for all; it's especially not for everyone considering there is a huge steep learning curve for people who are just getting into Pokemon. For those who are, good luck. For those who aren't, have fun.
