Fantastic,

This game is wonderful. You can catch a lot of great pokemon and there are a lot of things to do. You can even download different missions through WiFi. Unfortunately, you sometimes have to wait, to get a certain pokemon, until the mission is ready for download (not something you can influence). Like I would like to get Shaymin, but there is no mission to get him available yet.

great gft,

My granddaughter was so excited when she opened Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia for Christmas. I believe she put all her other gifts aside and starting play Pokemon immediantly. Thank you, my granddaughter was extremely happy.

Another Great Pokemon Game!,
by Reading Raven, 2009-01-04

In the beginning this game was easy but as the game played on it became more challenging. You choose to play as a girl or boy and the Pokémon you find help you on your missions. You can use them to clear passages, for travel, dig tunnels,etc.
The goal is to protect the Almia region from danger. There are special missions called quests. Overall, this is a fun game to play and hard to put down!

Better than the first one,
by Chelsea Marie Spencer, 2009-01-01

This game is way better than the first installment in the Pokemon Ranger series for the DS. It is very similar in terms of graphics and gameplay, yet offers significant improvements. For example, one doesn't need to circle their targets quite as furiously as before, which had previously led to blisters on my fingers. This one is slightly easier yet no less fun. Also, the ability to send certain special Pokemon over to the Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum games is a plus.

Much better than the first,
by Jessica C. Bullock, 2008-12-30

This pokemon ranger game is alot better than the original. All of the controls and everything are the same but the gameplay is enhanced. for isntance, when your capturing, if your styler doesnt make a full line or you need to pause for a second, which happens for me alot anyways if they're attacing the line, you dont loose all the progress you just did. the meter that you have to monitor how much more you need to capture them goes down slowly so you dont have to start all over again. The missions have more depth than before and I love the new quest feature. Every time you finish a quest you unlock more power for you styler.

All in all, this is an excellent game and I recommend to anyone who loves pokemon.
