Pokémon Box is an organization & storage utility that should have been included in Pokémon Colosseum, like it was in Pokémon Stadium. It's completely necessary if you're a serious Pokemon collector with more than one completed GBA game. Otherwise, it's completely useless.

I'm a serious Pokémon collector with three completed GBA games, and I've only ever used it once when I decided to start Ruby over and used it to store my Lileep and Deepseatooth. So... it's not really necessary at all.

I do use it as a transfer area for Pokedex completion. It's much faster to use than endless dull trading

So... it's not really necessary at all. You don't sound like a serious collector to me. My collection is fully legitimate, semi-complete (no mew), condensed, and organized by pokédex number. That would be brutally tedious, nearly impossible work without Pokémon Box.

I legitimately have every Pokémon besides Mew, Celebi and Deoxys, which a friend GameSharked for me... There was no other way I was ever going to get them. So I have 383 Pokémon obtained without cheating. I waded through the boring hours of Channel, XD and Colosseum just to get Jirachi, Ho-oh, Lugia, and the GS trio. Now, since I have every Pokémon on Ruby, FireRed and Emerald, I'm working on doing the same in Mystery Dungeon before Diamond and Pearl come out. And it doesn't really seem fair to judge how well somebody's doing in Pokémon by how much they use Pokémon Box.

Well, that is impressive, but your behavior still mystifies me. Diff'rent strokes, I guess.

Is Pokemon XD any good? I liked Pokemon Colloseum, the only thing I didn't like about it was the fact you couldn't buy Pokeballs from just any Pokemart and that you have to run to a computer to save.
Luigi's Mansion also looks interesting.

Having gotten Lugia from a Nintendo event, I've never been motivated to finish XD. I got to some kind of enemy fortress, and just stopped. If they ever release Mew, then I'll have a reason to beat it, but not until then. (Those events are easy to miss. I can't believe I haven't missed any since the Advance generation started.)
I recommend Luigi's Mansion. It got a bad rap when it was new, because it's not very large compared to other adventure games, but it makes up for that with style and detail. I just played it for the first time a few months ago, and thought it was nicely put-together.

I like XD more than Colosseum. You can buy Poke Balls at any Mart. Can't remember about saving... I'm FAIRLY sure you can save anywhere... but I don't recall.

Wario World is wonderful indeed. I recommend that one as well. Methinks I should give that a bump on my GC Top 15...it's good stuff, and now it's worth the price ($50 was a bit steep when it launched).

I'm sure Wario World would've been one of my favourite games if it were longer... eight levels just seem rediculously short to me. I finished them all on the second day, fully expecting to move on to another set. So finding out that was the whole game was a bit of a disappointment.

I hope a sequel to Wario World is made for the Wii. Hopefully a game that rivals SM64 in terms of length and exploration.

Yes, it is short. But I think that if Treasure put in much more, it may have gotten a bit old. It would make a nice fit for a Wii sequel though...imagine doing Wario's moves with the Wii-Mote!

Saying that gave me a bad feeling. I investigated, and sure enough. I missed him in September. Nintendo gave five days notice on their web site that there would be an event at Toys R Us. I'm furious, and looking to trade with someone.

Atleast your not like in Australia where we get NO events and NO special Pokemon that you can only get from such events.
