I would sure like to see a GC Pokemon title with the first 150 pokemon. I feel as if the series went downhill after Blue/Red/Yellow.

Really? I though Gold/Silver/Crystal completely perfected the formula.

I've liked the additions each new game has made to the series. I'll admit I never took to the competitions in Ruby/Sapphire, but quite a few people really enjoyed them. But I loved the double battles, and I appreciated Colosseum giving me a real test in double battling... as it doesn't happen much in the game. And I loved the fact that they cut down on the Pokemon available in Ruby and Sapphire, just to make them all trade available again through Colosseum and FR/LG. I thought that was a nice touch. The thought of catching all 300-and-whatever Pokemon in a single game was a bit much for me

The contests aren't bad, really, but they need to be changed a bit -the way the anime handles contests is nearly perfect, IMO, and they should try to emulate that.

XD stands for Extra Dimension, apparently... though it looks like it has the same number of dimensions as Colosseum. Any chance you could clear that up a bit?

Well... no, not really. I read that XD stands for Extra Dimension, but it really looks the same as Colosseum... so unless it's based on some storyline element then we'll have to wait and see if it means anything at all.

Yep, I pointed that out already. Loads of the same locations and a few new ones too.

I heard you can also get Artciuno, Zapdos and Moltres in XD!, I want that game, by the time, trainers could get enough time training, battling and trading mostly.

I really hope its longer than Colosseum. 20 hours wasn't enough for me.

I'm on 24 hours and I'm on the battle before the last boss, but I stills gotsa lotta Snagging to go before I've finished it.
Honestly... in an era where most games are considered long if they last 10 hours, you should count yourself lucky that Pokemon still consumes many, many hours of many, many lives.... especially mine, dagnabbit. I'd have completed it if I wasn't trying to snag that accursed Skarmory! ;D

I'm on 80+ hours and I still need to train up 5 or so Pokemon to level 50 before I take on the Admins for the second time!
So hopefully XD'll put the focus back onto single battles and make the training up of these Pokemon easier.
