Fantastic game.
It's true to the Pokemon series where it's the same game formula but with better graphics.

I was wondering how they'd take advantage of the DS touch-pad and they do so smartly by using it for the battle interface.

I haven't done this yet but another supercool bonus to this new version is you can communicate wirelessly and trade or battle Pokemon with random people on Earth.

I think the real value of Pokemon is that it's only for the portable gameboy/DS systems. Pokemon not something you'd play for hours at home but it's the best to kill time while waiting for you food at a restaurant, or when your boss has his back turned, or waiting at a red light.
