Pokemon of the month

I haven't done this in a while so here is our pokemon of the month.

Noctowl

I picked Noctowl for it's similarities to a real owl. This is one of the few pokemon that actually look like an animal. Spearow being one of them. I didn't put in Spearow because spearow isn't very interesting. When a Noctowl turns its head 180 degrees it sharpens its mind. I do not like the fact that the anime made Noctowl's size about the size of Ash's hat. The real size of Noctowl are aroun 4-6 feet.

Pokemon Heartgold and Soulsilver Review

Pokemon Heartgold and Soulsilver review.




Introductions:

Pokemon Heartgold and Soulsilver are remakes of the two best games known to pokemon. They bring back the old things such as the magnet train and make new things such as that fun little GBA music thing. That is just so fun. How could you not love it? This game is perfect for old pokemon fans and the newer kinds. They made this game sort of like firered and leafgreen. They didn’t take away the classic feel, but they added new things to it. Like newer pokemon. Same comes here. So if you want to buy either one of them read this review and take my word for it. I may be a pokemon fan, but I can give a couple of bad reviews too. This game has also added a new female character in it too.

Story:

This game starts of exactly like the originals. You’re a boy who gets the opportunity to become a pokemon ranger. As you journey through the jhoto region you meet up with your rival many times. The difficulty of the rival is satisfying. It sure is better than Firered and Leafgreen. In your journey, you discover Team Rocket. The first team pokemon has ever created. The main purpose in the game is to defeat the Elite Four, which are four really strong trainers with four pokemon, and defeat the champion of Jhoto and Kanto. The Champion of Jhoto is Lance. The Champion of Kanto is Red. Like the classics Red has really high leveled pokemon. On the other hand, you can make it through the Pokemon League with your eyes closed. I have to take points away from that. Like the original two games, you can travel through the Kanto region and battle all the gym leaders. However, think about it, in Firered and Leafgreen, Brock’s strongest pokemon is an Onix at the level of 14. In this his Onix has gone up to Level 54. A 10 year old trainer comes along with his level 9 charmander and challenges the gym of pewter city. So much for being a pokemon master. Brock is the first gym leader in red and green. Now he is the sixth. That makes a lot of sense. There’s also a battle frontier. It’s very similar to the one in Pokemon Platinum.

Presentation:

I have to take points away from the use of the touch screen. I think they overuse it a bit. Also, I do like the fact that pokemon follow you, but it can get pretty annoying. Sometimes, I go to the battle frontier just to stay away from my pokemon. Point deduction. I also think how it’s sort of unfair, how some people bought this game just for the pokewalker. WHY? The pokewalker is this little flattish oval-shaped object in which you can transfer pokemon into and obtain watts. The currency of the pokewalker. A picture of a pokewalker is right above graphics. With these watts, you can go use this dowsing minigame which lets you make educated guesses on where an item is. You can also select which patch of grass to pick so you can capture pokemon. The more steps the better. You can also connect to friends with the pokewalker and battle their pokemon trainer and their team on the ds. A computer does that However. Bummer.

Graphics:

Not a lot to say about the graphics in this game. They are the same as the pokemon diamond, pearl, and platinum games. I need to deduct points for not changing graphics. The biggest graphic change is how the sprites look. Big deal.

SCORE

Story: 7.0 Not Bad

Presentation: 7.9 Good

Graphics: 5.0 Could Have Been WAY Better

TOTAL: 7.6 Good

If I was on the pokemon anime......

If I was on the pokemon anime my name would be Hiro. I would be a professional pokemon trainer. I would have all the gym badges on all the regions. This would be my team.

Pretty awesome!!!!

Bulbatwig

This is my fourth sprite mixer. It was a little lazy. So I did it really fast. If you can't see the turtwig in the mix then look at the coloring and the twig at bulbasaur's head.

Pokemon Guardian Signs Review

Pokemon Rangers Guardian Signs Review

Introduction:

Pokemon Rangers Guardian Signs is the third game in the Pokemon Rangers franchise. It is probably the best of the three games. Pokemon Rangers Guardian signs bring back some of the old mechanics. For example, you need to make loops around a pokemon like crazy and hope for the best. It also has some new mechanics like the guardian signs, which allows you to summon certain pokemon.

Story:

This story is a little more complicated than the past two games. The past two were just beat the team and you save the world. Voila. You’re done. This story is about a pokemon ranger who has an important mission to stop this certain team of pokemon meanies who “pinch” pokemon. This group is known as the Pokemon Pinchers. Glad they don’t have the word team in it. I like the beginning of how you’re already a ranger. No sending letters to people asking to be a ranger. No weird ranger school. You’re just a normal pokemon ranger who travels around the Oblivia region with a girl named Summer/a boy named Ben. I got to give points for that. The storyline however doesn’t answer very many questions like who is the main legendary of the game? Is it Ho oh or Mewtwo? I just gave you spoilers by the way. Sorry.

Oblivia region map

Let’s get into the topic of Guardian Signs. After you capture raikou, your character and only your character sees a mysterious sign that comes from raikou. Once you record the sign in your capture stylus, you find out that it can call upon the pokemon. You can do this with a decent variety of pokemon. Such as the three dog pokemon and latios/latias. The three dog pokemon have the same role as doduo, but each have their own unique ability. Raikou can jump far. Entei can tackle pretty hard. Suicune can walk on water. All are really helpful. Latios/latias have the same role as staraptor except you can fly faster. It is really helpful considering you would have to find a staraptor and then catch it and then fly with it. And go through the process again.

Presentation:

This game does have quite a few problems, like the cut scenes. I beat the game in exactly 14 hours and 16 seconds. Literally. The majority of the game is cut scene. Even the quests have really long cut scenes. The game is really easy too. The maximum time it takes to beat the game is 72 hours. If you hit more than that, well find a better game to play. An easier game like um…nintendogs. I do like how the challenge is at the final boss. I mean the final FINAL boss. If you even touch the pokemon you lose damage. I also like the fact that you can visit Dolce Island again after it has been destroyed. You sort of can anyways. You have to finish this certain quest. Dolce Island is just virtual after you beat the quest. In the Virtual Dolce you can challenge the bosses again. I do like the new flying mechanic in which you can control where you want to fly.

There is something I have to deduct points from. It is the complication of the guardian signs. Some are really hard like the Ho-oh sign. It is a pain.

I do not like going to the past. The missions are pretty fun, but there is limited time, so sometimes you are forced to complete the mission with another player. Also, you can’t take Ukulele Pichu, your partner, to the past.

Graphics:

The graphics are like the past two pokemon ranger games. It’s pretty good. Glad Game freak doesn’t make the graphics in these games. Creatures do. Err….It’s the company name. Creatures. I can’t find the trademark sign. I do like the graphics for when you’re flying, but as a video game reviewer I have to deduct points for not changing the game’s graphics very much.























Score:

Story: 8.9 amazing



Presentation: 7.0 decent



Graphics: 6.4 average



Total:

8.8 Really Good!!
