Advantages: Enjoyable, Good Graphics Disadvantages: Hard, Hurts hands but keeps them healthy
So, the first Pokemon Ranger game arrived last year in EU, and to be honest, its a pretty good game. It is very very tough at times too, especially when trying to catch legendary pokemon. With some legendarys, you have to move the styler as fast as you may ever need to.
Pokémon Ranger is set in the Fiore Reigion (A Reigon where you'll find all the rangers mostly). Your ambition is to become a Ranger, and that dream comes true when you go to Ringtown ... ...reigon do not keep their Pokemon in Pokeballs, so that means its easy for people's pokemon to run off, meaning you have to rescue them back.
In the game, you can capture wild pokemon using your styler, and use them to help capture other Pokemon with their unique power they have depending on their type. For e.g.
Pichu, Pikachu & Raichu would recharge your Stylus
Tangela would help you cross over things if there is something for them to grab over

Advantages: New Gameplay, New Storylines, Unlockable Content Disadvantages: Too Much Text To Read
Pokemon has had many different games before from Pokemon Pinball, Pokemon Snap and the regular Pokemon games. However, with the Nintendo DS Touch Screen, new possibilities are now on the horizon and Pokemon Ranger is one of these.
Instead of clicking a couple of buttons and watching your animated character throw a pokeball, you must use the new technology that is the Capture Styler to capture Pokemon by drawing complete rings around them. Easy you ... ...a Salamence, the powerful dragon Pokemon requires a colossal 24 rings in a third of the seconds. This is very hard considering Salamence fires flames at you which break your Capure Styler and should your Capture Styler lose all it's health, you must restart the game from your last checkpoint.
Along with the new way to capture Pokemon, you have a new storyline, with you being a Pokemon Ranger, a sort of Poke Policeman whose job it is to help look ...

Advantages: New fresh storylines Disadvantages: Not quite the legend the others were
Well…It didn’t take long for Nintendo to ship out another Pokémon game. They released Pokémon Mystery Dungeon not too long ago and then they released this game. After seeing Pokémon Mystery Dungeon I was really about to give up on Pokémon. However after playing this game, my thoughts about that had changed.
This game is not your typical Pokémon adventure. This game is based around Pokémon rangers, and anyone who has seen the latest Pokémon movie, ... ...have not seen it then a Pokémon ranger basically keeps order in communities. Rangers have a nice little tool called a styler. This little device allows them to capture Pokémon and control them, it is different to a Pokeball as the creature does not go into a ball, the ranger wraps an energy string around the creature and then captures it that way.
In this story, you start off as a normal person and correspond with a ranger leader. You meet up with ...

...much of a game. Unlike pokemon pearl and diamond, the story mode doesn't play out so that you can travel anywhere you want within a region, but sticks to a straight path untill you reach the end. The game is set in the Fiore region, Completely sperate from Kanto, Johto or hoenn much like The Orre region was in pokemon colleseum but there arn't any new pokemon apart from the Pokemon diamond and pearl ones (And manphy).
Fiore is located quite some ... ...spot of Fiore, hence ice pokemon appearing there, including the legendary Regice. It leads to Wintown, located on the foot of the Sekra Range. The Sekra Range is a 6500-foot-high mountain range that is notable for having a waterfall that can "fill the Capture Arena 23 times in one minute"; housing the Go-Rock Squad's base; a house high up where the residents inside will recharge the player's Styler; "Shiftree", a tree where five Shiftry live in and ...
