The game is a awesome game to start out with the game will take you alot of your time to beat it and you will live it I think the main attraction is the pokemon and the story both of them are really good you see tons of pokemon as you progress in the story now to get to the story the story is really good but it is sort of the same thing in any other pokemon you have a team that likes to take other pokemon from other trainers and that happens in every version so whats is new is the touch screen which is really cool cause instead of going through the buttons you can just touch the move and the pokemon will do it it is much more easy than having to do all the button pressing to look for a move another thig that is cool is online play but you do need friend codes to battle them but you can trade you pokemon like an auction you put up a pokemon and you just say what you want it for and if someone has that pokemon and they are willing to give up there pokemon then you have a new pokemon and that is what I think is cool about it so everything in this game is awesome the pokemon are awesome accept and there is one con on this game and that is in early in the game you get the same pokemon over and over again and that can get really frustrating cause you want a different pokemon but yet you get the same pokemon over and over again until you get to a different area and that can take just a little bit cause you face people on the way cause they stop you and so you level your pokemon up faster so overall the game is awesome and anybody with a DS should have one.
