Pokécentre looks awesome

 

[Raika]

OMG
Those look AWESOME...

The battle screen and Pokemon Centre look great!!!

I'm getting hyped for this.

 

[Depravo]

But those screenshots are clearly full colour...

 

[Escape]

Battle screen looks better, but all the rest looks quite disappointing...
Maybe it's because the low quality pictures, but I don't think this kind of 3D will look good on the DS... maybe on the 3DS but not the DS.

 

[Zeroneo]

So they just changed the views?

 

[hasboon]

also shows the hero's sprites that their using

 

[Raika]

Is it just me, or does the male hero sprite look like Ash?

I know it isn't Ash, but there's a resemblance.

Considering we know next-to-nothing about the 3DS...

 

[Issac]

I think it looks nice, especially the city view

 

[jonesman99]

it looks better than the isometric view... i wonder what the region is going to be they are starting to cut it close

there is a new cycling road, and the pokemon center and the pokemart have been combined together...

This might just be the biggest filesize ds game in history... or just with the 256mbits

 

[hasboon]

what does it matter it pokemon its gonna be on every flashcart

 

[tajio]

As a big pokemon fan I'm gonna buy it once it comes out in the UK NEXT YEAR!!!! But I can't wait that long

If I knew japanese I would've imported it from Japan once it's out.

I bet anyone that it's a new region.

I have to admit, the new camera angle was a bit hard to wrap my head around. But that's because I saw the Pokecenter screen first. After I saw the world map screens, I understood it right away/

 

[raulpica]

OMH. The city and the Pokémon Centre are awesome. ME WANTS.

 

[benjaminlibl]

I don't want to care anymore.

 

[Edgedancer]

I cant say that I am hugely looking forward to this because it is so soon after HGSS. I can see their reason for putting it out on the DS but I can only see this as a wasted oportunity. A pokemon title would be a killer launch game for a console.

 

[ZeWarrior]

The 3DS is a hand-held, not a console.

 

[frogmyster3]

Those screens are amazing. Some points:

1) The battle system looks to have remained the same with Pokemon on the top screen and options on the bottom. Bit disappointing not having 3D models rather than 2D sprites but I suppose that's what the Wii is for.
2) If the shop is in the Pokemon Center then will anything replace the PokeMart? A GTS in every city maybe?
3) Why are those buildings so damn high? Yes Pokemon has clearly gone urban but the Pokemon Center has one main layer which we can clearly see. What is the need for wasted space above?

Can't wait for these. As I've said before and I'll say again, I think these two will be DS releases with 3DS capability (with a 3DS launch very close to these titles in Japan) with the third installment a 3DS only game.

Screens look very good.
I'm already looking forward to this because its a brand new generation unlike remakes Heart Gold and Soul Silver, looks like they are changing things - new battle system and Pokemon Centers.
