pokemon has always been a great gameboy game with hours of playtime. but after so many games, and the fact it is now on the nintendo ds, you would think they would try to do somthing new, other than new pokemon. dont get me wrong, its still a great game but if you have played the other pokemon games already, you not missing anything.

the touch screen feature is limited in its use. it just lets you use some of the basic features of the game. locating items for instance or selecting pokemon in or out of battle. but they did a great job with the pokedex feature on the touch screen. they could have used to make use of the touchscreen with the attacks, like new attacks or somthing.

other wise it is a well put together game for the ds.
