Pokemon Battle Revolution Video Review: Just Meh

Shadow net583x s | July 06, 2007 | Reviews | Wii 
We know Pokemon can be a fun experience. But, with Pokemon Battle Revolution recently being released on the Wii, it appears that the "fun experience" has been toned down... to mediocre.

If the video doesnt play, I will give a little rundown. The game's visuals are blocky and the game gets repetetive. The online play is cool, but with the animations the battles go really slow. You cant see who you are battling, and you dont know what pokemon the other person has until the battle has started and they send them out. Some good things about it, however, are that it has online play, which is a good step. You can transfer your pokemon from Diamond or Pearl to it to use to battle. If you dont have any of the DS games, however, this game wont be as much fun since you would have pokemon selected for you.

    It does sound the same as previous titles like this. The thing with Pokemon games is that you can't really update them, you can change the Pokemon and the location, but rally, its just exactly the same thing each time.
    Diamond and Pearl however brought new features to the table, so all hope has not been lost just yet ^^

    The only thought I currently have about whoever gave this review is:

    "And it took this mofo up 'til now to realize this?"

    THAT'S HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE.

    They should just stick to the handheld games, imo. I mean, Pokemon Coliseum did well, as did Pokemon XD from what I heard, but now it's just been disappointing to say the least.
