As Pokemon Black and White are on the horizon (March 6th here in the States), I decided I was interested in picking up a Pokemon game, as well as pick up all the special promotional pokemon, like Celebi, the three legendary dogs, and all the other ones. And just recently, I was able to get WiFi on my Wii, so I decided to pick up Pokemon Rumble. A bunch of friends tired of playing SSBB and 15 dollars later, I bought the game.
Pokemon Rumble is quite fun, just being a simple beat 'em up based off of the pokemon series. The only problem is that... This game isn't really complete. It only has the 1st and 4th generation pokemon, so I can't even play with my favorite pokemon; Blaziken. In fact, you can't even play with Mew, because it isn't there. Depressing, to say the least.
However, getting past that problem, the game itself is good. You are a pokemon who wants to become the champion, which requires you to enter battle royales, to advance farther into the ranks. However, the pokemon you get don't level up. You recruit more pokemon and switch to stronger ones as you progress.
The gameplay is a little boring after a while, since it doesn't change up much. The whole point is beat on the pokemon and befriend all of them. The same theme in all pokemon games, getting all the pokemon.
Do I think you should get this game? If you like pokemon and enjoy many of the spin-off games, I would say pick this up. If you aren't into the spin-off games, then you probably shouldn't get this. Think of your own level of pokemania and decide from that.
That's all for now.
