Amazon.com : Pokémon Ruby's updated graphics with weather effects, amazing sound, more than 200 Pokémon with over 100 new species--as well as its faithful adherence to the existing series of Pokémon games--makes for a welcome evolution in the series.
First, the game has a lot in common with Pokémon games Silver, Gold, and Crystal. For example, players can choose to be a boy or a girl trainer, an internal clock sets events at certain times, and you’re the game's handy-dandy Pokédex helps players keep track of the many stats. You're main goal is still to beat all the Gym Trainers and become the Pokémon Master. If you've played the old games, you will be right at home. But not all is the same.
The most obvious change is in the battles themselves. Now that two Pokémon can fight on your side at the same time, you can tag-team them against an enemy by taking advantage of the strengths of your Pokémons while covering their weaknesses. For example, you can now have a water Pokémon watch your fire Pokémon's back. You can also attack more than one Pokémon at a time.
A whole new element to the game focuses on how berries are used in battle. And if you collect enough berries, you can take them to a Berry Blender and make a PokéBlock, which is a little super-charged candy that raises your Pokémon's "Condition" attributes. You can then groom your Pokémon for regional contests and compete for ribbons like "Best of Show," which will unlock additional contests. There's even strategy in how to best use your berries: pick too many and the berry tree will disappear; plant berries, though, and a tree will grow. You can also build a Secret Base in special areas of the game, which you can decorate just like you can your room.
And let us not forget that Pokémon Ruby has a kickin' multiplayer system, too. You can trade Pokémon, and link up to four players for incredible battles. The only downside is that you can't link up with the old Game Boy Color games. --Bryan Karsh
Pros:
You can control two Pokémon in battle
Much needed graphic and sound facelift
Nice multiplayer feature (requires link cable and extra game cartridge)
Deletes saved games This guy has sent me terrible games. He sent me games that do not work properly they delete saved games and go blank in key parts of the story line making it impossible to go further i have contacted him about this and he chose to ignore me i suggest no one buy anything from him because he is a con artist.
DO NOT BUY FROM SELL A LOT Sell A Lot seller is a BAD person to deal with!!!! DO NOT BUY FROM SELL A LOT THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING
Didn't live up to the hype by a long shot. *PROS*
*Addictive gameplay *Lots of towns, cities and islands to explore *Cute starters *Graphics improved in spades over Gold/Silver versions *Colorful *Interesting *Engulfing like the others
*CONS*
*Too many ugly, and strangely creepy Pokemon to look at *Not as fun *Felt rushed *One main character (Boy) has white hair which was manage-able but the girl had wings as bangs (**LOL** I hated that! and picked the boy most of the time) *The Pokemon Gym Leaders weren't all that cool *Too many weird Pokemon
3.5 stars.
