Do you want intense Pokemon fighting action, all in 3D?
Ups: Awesome 3D. Ability
to upload Pokemon from your game boy Pokemon into Pokemon Stadium with
the included Transfer Pak. Surprisingly fun mini games.
Downs: You need two transfer
paks to trade pokemon with a friend, and they cost about 20 bucks apiece.
Graphics- 9.5 out of 10- Every pokemon is rendered in eye popping 3D. All the attacks and moves of each Pokemon are also a graphical wonder.
Sound- 8.5 out of 10- The sound in this game is nothing special. There is an announcer, but after the first battle, you'll turn him off because he's so annoying. Other than that, you have basic pokemon getting hit sounds, and crowd noise.
Replay Value- 8 out of 10- This game actually doesn't have a lot of cups to compete in, but it will take you a very long time to beat them all. You can always battle with a friend, or play mini games, which are actually really fun.
Overall- 8.5 out of 10- This is a solid Pokemon game if you like strategic battles. This game may not appeal to the average gamer, because you have to use a lot of strategy to set-up your Pokemon teams for the different cups.
