This game is the world's worst game. It's also one of the games you HAVE to play to get all of the Pokemon. The battles are slow, shadow Pokemon are annoying as hell, among other things.

Also you can't copy your file to prevent cloning.

Also you're a douchebag who rides a scooter.

Also it forces you to save after you catch Lugia so you can't reset to get a good one.

Also I've only played it for like 10 minutes and I hate it THIS MUCHpodgjgdsl;kgsjgd;lfgjg';lldfkfdl;gd/

I mean.... Coliseum was tolerable because the main character, although silent, was actually the first really interesting Pokemon main character... ever. And then in XD they revert back to a typical Gary Stu, losing any interesting qualities it had before. Then the story (from what I saw of it) was really poor and they made the new Shadow Pokemon purification process WAY more complicated than it has to be. And I think the sole reason it's like that is because they wanted to make actuallly getting a Lugia into their Ruby and Sapphire games more ~~frustrating~~ challenging, because they knew that's a big reason why people will be buying this game in the first place.

Ironically, my GameCube has a Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness skin on it right now. XD
It was free and looked cool so hey, why not?

I must be the only guy that likes this game. It had it's flaws. Biggest flaw in my opinion was it was way too short and way too easy, especially if you go to Battle mountain alot, and they made some of my favorite pokemon look stupid, (Ex: Lickitoung) but they did do good on others. Sure, it was a dumbed-down pokemon game, and yet, I still liked it. I guess I'm a hardcore Pokemon fan then.

They made Pokemon XD a really bad game so people would stop asking Nintendo to make a 3D console Pokemon game.

Which, really, wasn't even what either Colosseum or XD were.

A 3D Console Pokemon game, or a really bad game? :yuusaku:

I personally enjoyed the game, it was a breath of fresh air compared to the handheld games

It's better than Colosseum, but every battle being a double battle (unless the opposing trainer only has one) sucks.

Still, being able to get an extra Earthquake TM for my Sapphire cart (not to mention infinite Shadow Ball TM's/Hold Items)means it's not all bad. :redd:

The reason I couldn't stand this game was because the characters were so annoying (Jovi comes to mind) to me. Everything else I could tolerate :/

Same, but I wasn't smart enough to sell it, figuring that I'd beat it eventually.

I liked colosseum somewhat, mostly for the pokemon you could get, but the stadium games were far better. I ought to rent colosseum again and get Ho-Oh though.

Console Pokémon games are ass. Everyone is better off playing the normal games.

Really because I like Pokemon Battle Revolution!

Actually, without Pokemon Battle Revolution,
I wouldnt have my DS Lite...

I got Pokemon Battle Revolution, and remembered it could connect to Diamond or Pearl,
so then I wanted a DS Lite and then, got it a small while after,
then months later, I saw this game on the internet called "Apollo Justice",
it was so hard to find Apollo Justice and then I saw it at Best Buy,
and then I joined Court-Records forums.

I never wanted a DS of any sort before Pokemon Battle Revolution.

The only problem I had with this game was that the final boss fight took forever and didn't have awesome music like Evice did... and plus Lugia's so annoying to purify that I never even really bothered... but still, I loved going through the whole story with Vaporeon (my favorite Water Pokemon and my favorite Eevee evo), and 3-D Pokemon battles look really cool. I spend a lot of time on some of my other Pokemon games (these days, mostly Diamond, Pearl, Ranger 2, and the Mystery Dungeons... I'd include Fire Red, but I have no idea where it is D8 ), but I like Colosseum and XD, too. :)

Hmm... great 3d graphics, plays just like the previous pokemon games, the main character looks like a typical pokemon guy, purifying pokemon is fun but chalenging, has a bit more replay value than other pokemon games (although it is shorter), and you get Lugia without cheating as well as the Johto starters. I say it rules. And anoying characters? Why, it's just like a certain game this fan site is deadicated to.

You know, I might have liked this game if I could stand it more more than an hour. -_-

Maybe I should rent it. (LUGIA W00T)

Sentiments shared. 3 friends and I managed to beat it through our combined efforts. No one could really stand playing it for more than 30 minutes straight. And all for Lugia data...
