Pokemusings, week 16

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Natures have negligible impact in beating the single-player modes in the Pokemon role-playing games, but they are an enormous facet of competitive play. Longtime competitive Pokemon trainers know how vital having the right nature is, but those new to the scene might not know enough about them. In this week's edition of Pokemusings, we're going to look at various natures and tell you how to use them to your advantage. To start, take a look at this nifty chart the GamesRadar artisans have ... » Read More

Pokemusings, week 15

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Our coverage of weather effects in Pokemon battles concludes in this week's issue of Pokemusings. We've already gone through sunlight, rain, and sand. Now it's time to examine hail. While not as common as the other weather effects, hail has some pretty interesting and effective uses. Since it's decidedly on the underused side, building a team around hail is a great way to throw your opponents a ... » Read More

Pokemon Money Shots

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Pokemon Battle Revolution is barely a game. It's a hollow shell that you're supposed to fill with your own Pokemon from games you've already spent hundreds of hours on. Basically, the game exists only so you can battle Pokemon on Wii, in 3D, and marvel at the GameCube-level visuals. In other words, it's extremely boring to play for any length of time. We had to endure PBR for countless hours so that our massively cool Pokedex could have updated 3D screens of all 493 critters. After spending ... » Read More

Pokemusings, week 13

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Sept 6, 2007 Our look at the various weather aspects in Pokemon continues! Last week, we checked out the sun. This time around we're going to look at the rain. While many people associate the rain with dull and dreary days, having a bit of precipitation in your Pokemon battles can be a glorious thing. With the proper understanding, the right Pokemon, and the right moves, you can make it pour when it rains... pour a whole lot of hurtin' on your opponent that is! There are a few areas in the ... » Read More

Over the next few weeks, we're going to talk about various weather effects, what they do, and how to take advantage of them. First up, we're going to cover that mass of incandescent gas (a gigantic nuclear furnace) known as the sun. First off, there are two ways ... » Read More

Pokemusings, week 11

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Aug 23, 2007 Hold items are absolutely essential for Pokemon battles. Pretty much every Pokemon trainer out there knows the value of pairing the right hold item with the right Pokemon. What many players don't know is that hold items are equally valuable for obtaining hard-to-catch Pokemon and completing your Pokedex. In this week's issue of Pokemusings, we're going to take a look at some of the Pokemon you can generate using the Daycare Center in Solaceon City in conjunction with specific hold ... » Read More

Pokemusings, week ten

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Okay! After playing some name games in the last issue of Pokemusings, we head back into the super serious (not really) world of EV training. In case you've missed it (and shame on you if you did!), we've already gone over the basics and recommended places to EV train. This week, we're going to go over some items that will maximize your EV efforts. If you've beaten the Elite Four, then you'll have access to the Battle Tower. Not only is this a great place to hone your competitive-battling ... » Read More

Pokemusings, week nine

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Naming your Pokemon is a vital but often overlooked part of the Pokemon games. Hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of people play Pokemon games without giving any thought to naming the Pokemon they catch. This, we think, is criminal. After all, you don't name your dog "Dog" or your cat "Cat." So why should you stick with species names like Charmander, Pikachu, or Togepi?!? We understand that Ash and his friends do this in the animated series so that viewers can learn the names of each ... » Read More

10 signs you're playing too much Pokemon

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

We've been playing a lot of Pokemon recently. But is it too much? Here's how to tell. If any of the following sound familiar, it might be time to take a break. Be honest now... 1) You hear the level up chime in your head when you accomplish an everyday task 2) You avoid long grass or take the shortest route through it when you're feeling fatigued 3) You spray insect repellent on your clothes and walk with confidence for 100 paces 4) You tap your watch repeatedly in the hope it will reveal ... » Read More

Pokemusings, week eight

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Last week, we gave you the basics of EV training - the complex stat-boosting system in Pokemon that works in a behind-the-scenes way. While it might be tough to grasp initially, EV training is well worth the effort. You'll be making your pokemon the best that they can be if you're mindful about the types of pokemon they defeat. This week's installment of Pokemusings will help your EV efforts by letting you know some excellent places for training in Pokemon Diamond/Pearl. Since most of our ... » Read More

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Many people are under the impression that Pokemon is nothing more than a series of role-playing games geared toward youngsters. This is partially true. The Pokemon games are superbly-crafted titles that appeal to children of all ages. They're fun games that are easy for players of all skill levels to enjoy. Underneath it all is an amazingly complex system that most players don't even know about. It's called EV training.

Pokemusings, week six

Wii News | Pokemon Battle Revolution

Using legendary Pokemon in battles is a piece of cake. Their stats are higher than normal and their move pools are generally broader than those of standard Pokemon. Even without proper training and with an unbalanced move set, it's pretty easy to win a battle using legendary Pokemon. You don't need a whole lot of skill to win this way. If you're a Pokemon master in the making then you're probably working hard at training standard Pokemon. Being victorious with regular Pokemon is a true ... » Read More

Keeping your Pokemon happy is every Pokemon trainer's responsibility. The better you treat your Pokemon, the better they'll perform for you in battle. More importantly, happiness is the only way to get some of the best Pokemon in the game. Lucario, Blissey, and Crobat are just a few of the ultimate evolutions that are triggered by maximum happiness. There's a common misconception among many Pokemon players about happiness evolution. We've heard tons of people complain about what a chore this ... » Read More
