Tendo City

Quote:The latest issue of Coro Coro has new details, and lots of new pictures for Pokémon XD: Dark Winds Dark Lugia. The game will be similar to Pokémon Colosseum as there is still battling but there is a large RPG section as well.

The RPG section has been improved, with a beefier story and more things to do. The storyline, from what we know of it, has you playing as a very skinny male who...well who knows what he is doing but nonetheless he is armed with Pokéballs and the will to collect Pokémon.

The character will once again have the Snag Machine and an Aurora Searcher so that you can trace down Shadow Pokémon. You will begin with an Eevee, which makes me wonder if the evolution you chose will affect the game in any way. The currently known Pokémon that you can snag are Teddiursa and Lugia.

A "dark" Lugia is also very prominent in the magazine scans, and of course the game is named after it, so is bound to play a large part in this game. The game is due out in Japan on August 4th, so expect new info soon, if not next week during E3.

I was expecting something better, for some reason...

It better be a real RPG this time. None of that light-weight Colosseum crap.

This IS Pokemon we're talking about here, OB1.

Well, if the article is right, there RPG mode is bigger than the one in Colosseum.

Well I would certainly hope so since Colosseum's RPG mode was about as empty as you can get.

Have you ever played it?

...

Because I haven't either. Maybe someday...

Yeah, one of my friends is a huge Pokemon freak and buys everything Poke-related that he can afford. Anyone who calls that game a real RPG is delusional.

*stands up* Hi, I'm Smoke and I'm delusional.

Hello, Smoke!

I'm glad to hear one of you admit that!

Nintendo is now online... they just need to announce the Pokemon MMORPG, with plenty of online PK, and that will rule.

I'll bet the farm that Pokemon DS online will be revealed at E3.

It might just be!
