The touch screen controls are crap. Thank god you can switch to the d-pad and the buttons instead.
I played up to the ninth chapter. Seems fun. Will be playing this for a while.
Still playing.
Diamond has my OU (IV bred (some) and EV trained) team on 275 hours though thats only for battling of this moment and maybe fixing up the team.
Now I am going to finish Pearl legally and build up my Predacon team.
Though if I didn't get into that IV breeding and EV training...
Note: There have been reports of the game freezing if you talk to the card battler named John in the 9th floor twice.
I think the rom has this glitch. Just warning to those who want to try the game.
