411mania: The Release List for the Week of August 10, 2009

Wii News from N4G | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Wii - Pokemon Battle Revolution - 411mania: The Release List for the Week of August 10, 2009

411mania talks about this week's game releases. Highlights include Phantom Brave, C.O.R.E, Fossil Fighters, and Madden.

On Phantom Brave, 411mania writes: "We Meet Again is an update to the original Phantom Brave for the PS2. As it was the game that immediately followed Disgaea, it had a lot to live up to when it was first released back in 2004. Though the SRPG contained many similarities to its predecessor, many fans felt that it strayed a little too much from what made Disgaea a hit. Detractors cite the more serious story as well as the various gameplay changes as their main complaints. However, those who actually gave the game a chance found a lot of the changes to their liking. The absence of the grid system, for example, allowed for more freedom when positioning characters. In addition, the Confine system, whereby the souls of the playable characters must be "confined" to objects on the field in order to take physical form, forced players to put more thought into when and where to use each character. It's not an exact clone of Disgaea, but in this case, that isn't such a bad thing."

Nov 29, 2007 Our coverage of Pokemon movies continues! In the last issue of Pokemusings, we went over the dregs -- Pokemon movies that suck. It was a bleak and depressing issue, but we're moving on to bigger, brighter, and better things this week. This time around we'll be talking about three Pokemon movies that are excellent. In no particular order, here are the ones we thought were best. Pokemon: The Movie 2000 Plot: Some jerkwad collector gets extremely overzealous and attempts to capture ... » Read More

Deoxys is a unique, versatile, and powerful Pokemon. It's the only Pokemon that has four unique forms at the same evolutionary stage and it's the only Pokemon that has partnered with NASA (we hear Deoxys has a nasty addiction to Tang). Previously, if you were lucky enough to catch Deoxys, you were stuck with whatever form it was in when it fell to your mighty Pokeball. Thanks to a nifty enhancement in Diamond/Pearl, you can fully exploit the versatility of Deoxys to match your team's needs and ... » Read More

Nov 1, 2007 In Pokemon battles, annoying the hell out of your opponent is sometimes more fun than actually beating them. Whether you're freezing, burning, or paralyzing your enemies, it's fun watching them squirm. The latest generation of Pokemon has introduced several critters that are outstanding nuisances. While Togekiss has been getting a lot of love, there's another excellent annoyer you might want to consider for your team: ... » Read More

Oct 25, 2007 Halloween is right around the corner and we thought it would be a great time to look at five really scary Pokemon. It would be easy to go with some obviously frightening Pokes (Rayquaza, Mewtwo) or some that are just flat-out ugly (Swampert, Electivire). Instead, we're going to take a look at five Pokemon that weren't meant to be scary, but for some reason or another scare the crap out of us. Prepare for this list of "five unintentionally scary ... » Read More

Wii - Pokemon Battle Revolution - Rumor: Nintendo Developing New Pokemon RPG for the Wii

Maxconsole writes that "according to internet reports, an un-named developer of the Pokemon game franchise has revealed that a Pokemon RPG title for the Wii is in the works although it is not yet known whether this will be a sequel to Pokemon Battle Revolution. According to the dev, there has been no Pokemon RPG for the Wii recently as Nintendo wanted to push Pokemon trading on other platforms as much as possible before handing that over to the Wii".

Bug Pokemon get no love. It's easy to understand why. In every Pokemon game - whether the adventure starts in Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, or Sinnoh - the early goings have tons of weak bugs for your team to slaughter. With a staple of immensely non-threatening Pokemon like Kakuna, Weedil, Metapod and Caterpie abundant in the early stages of every Pokemon game, players are conditioned to think that bug Pokemon suck. This is a shame, since there are so many awesome bug Pokemon out there. This week, ... » Read More

Oct 11, 2007 As much as we love Pokemon - enough to devote thousands of hours to the series, collectively - the games are far from perfect. While we've enjoyed so much of our time in Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh, there were a few aspects of our adventures that drove us batty. In this week's Pokemusings, we're going to go to that dark, angry, and bitter place by venting about five things we can't stand about the mainline Pokemon games. 1) The Run Button - Holding down a button to run was ... » Read More

Fugly Pokemon

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Oct 10, 2007 When judging Pokemon, a good Pokemon trainer takes many things into account, like stats, type weaknesses, abilities, and the Pokemon's move pool. But these attributes don't always tell the whole story. Sometimes, you have to also consider aesthetics when choosing which Pokemon is right for you. In other words, you want you Pokemon to look cool while it's kicking ass. With that in mind, we present our list of the fugliest Pokemon to ever strike fear in the hearts' of their ... » Read More
