Pokemon still has it.

User Rating: 9 | Pocket Monsters Pearl DS
Pokemon games have been around for a few years now and they still are fun to play. Pokemon Pearl is the same pokemon game that many of us have been playing for ages. The only differences are a some very nice add-ins and enhanced graphics. One very nice feature was the wireless communication. This enabled players who had the game able to trade pokemon with another player without buying a link cable. A player could simply press a few buttons and the two ds machines would be connected for battles, trading, or communication. Some more features include communication with distant friends using wireless internet and trading pokemon with people across the world, however with both of these their area few restrictions.
When you communicate with your friends that have the game you must have a friends code. You are not able to look up the name of the person and find them. Another problem is if you have no other way of communicating with them then it is pointless. You must both be on wifi at the same time. A player should be able to send a message to a distance friend so if they are playing they will get the message and head to wifi center. I found out a player could trade pokemon across the world on the new pokemon ds game. Truth is that it is crap. You can only trade for pokemon that you have seen. So you cannot trade any pokemon that are from the original games unless you have the original game or if you have some how seen it. I would have loved to have a magmar, jynx, or electabuzz but no, I HADN'T SEEN THEM BEFORE.

Overall the game is still the same. Start with one pokemon, catch new pokemon, get badges, catch the legendary pokemon, and then the elite four. Also you can never forget that annoying tunnel that is right before the elite four.
