Who would've ever thought the original Pokemon games could ever be rivaled?

I don't care how old you are; everyone gets excited when a new pokemon game comes out! DON'T LIE TO YOURSELF. I actually wasn't planning on buying this game right after its release, but that all changed when the crazy Pokemon hype came in. Yah, ok, I'll admit it: I STILL LOVE POKEMON! So I went and picked it up, and was stunned just after playing for a couple of minutes. I can hardly put it down. The graphics are nice for DS, with a little mix of both 2D and rendered 3D. And, the game still feels very familiar, which I like. The music is cool; it's always nice to hear some new, fresh Pokemon tunes. But aside from everything else, I think the whole online stuff is absolutely awesome. The new features take trading and battling to the next level. The clock feature is also very nice to have in. I always thought Silver/Gold were the best versons, and I'm glad they brought the time aspect back into the series. Great job Nintendo. I'm happy, and that's all that matters.
