Pokemon Turns 15!

by Pokémaster on March 5, 2011

Happy belated 15th birthday, Pokemon! On February 27th, 1996, Pokemon Red and Green were released in Japan to a dying Gameboy platform, though they had been in production since 1990. With 150 Pokemon (and one hidden Pokemon, unbeknownst to Nintendo), 15 years later, it’s one of the most popular gaming franchises on the planet with almost 650 Pokemon now! Thank you Satoshi Tajiri, Ken Sugimori, and Junichi Masuda for changing our lives!

Celebi download event happening now!

by Pokémaster on February 9, 2011

Wow, another Pokémon event is going on right now over at your local GameStop. The event started February 5th and runs through the 21st. For this limited time you will be able to download Celebi, the Time Traveling Pokémon, for Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Platnium, HeartGold, or SoulSilver.

Your new Celebi will know the move Nasty Plot, which greatly increases Celebi’s Special Attack stat. You will be able to strengthen another move, Leaf Storm, which is a Grass-type mow. Celebi also knows Recover. which will regain lost HP, and Heal Wish, which will cause Celebi to faint but it will completely heal the next Pokémon you bring into battle. Celebi is also holding a Joboca Berry, something that you will not find in your existing Pokémon games. When you plant this berry, you will be able to grow more of them in your game.

hmm, I wonder what game will use Joboca Berries??? ;)

For more information visit the official Pokémon news site here.

Hands On with Pokemon White

by Pokémaster on October 4, 2010

Despite being on the same hardware as the last main entry in the Pokémon series, Pokémon Black/White is a definite technical step up from Diamond/Pearl/Platinum. If anything, the fact that Game Freak was stuck with “the old DS” seems to have just pushed them harder to try to impress us. Unlike with past Pokémon sequels, they couldn’t rely on the the power of new hardware to impress the crowds. Instead, they had to pour every ounce of imagination and craftmanship into the game as they could, and it shows. It’s hard to go back to Diamond/Pearl/Platinum now that I’ve been spoiled by Pokémon White

So far, Pokemon Black & White have sold over 2.5 million copies in Japan – March 2011 can’t come here fast enough!!

Make sure you read more of the “Hands On: Pokemon White” at Destructoid!

Pokemon – Red Version

by Pokémaster on May 30, 2010

  • Collect up to 139 Pokémon with this game
  • both Red and Blue versions are required to capture all 150
  • use the optional Game Link cable to trade Pokémon and play against a friend;

Product MedlinePlus is not the game that started a revolution, but it is not just the way that players believe, “Catch ‘Em All.” This role of a deceptively simple design child-friendly game design is much deeper than it seems. Pokemon features way more strategy and gameplay and ending on the line, offering players the game almost infinite possibilities, even after the main quest. Pocket Monsters Red was released in Japan in 1996 by mail order only (the two launch titles were … more>> ;
