Pokemon 101
What are Pokemon? Pokemon come I all shapes and sizes. Each Pokemon has one or two types of moves (such as Grass, Fire or Water) which it uses in battle. Pokemon also develop their own personalities, likes and dislikes - just like humans do. Pokemon and humans have learned to live and work together in harmony to create a better life for all.

Pokemon grow and evolve in different ways. When Pokemon travel with a Pokemon trainer, they gain experience from battling other Pokemon and other trainers. Pokemon can also gain experience by staying at the Pokemon daycare, but nothing beats first-hand battle experience. All Pokemon have one or two innate element types. Pokemon types reflect the strengths and weaknesses as well as the environments they originated from. For example Fire-type Pokemon are often found near hot environments, excel in fire-type moves and are weak against Water-type moves. If you know what type of Pokemon your opponent is using, it is usually a good strategy to use the opposing type. Gym leaders and trainers always use one or two Pokemon types. Like most creatures, Pokemon live in environments suited to their needs. A skilled Pokemon trainer will search everywhere for Pokemon and learn where to find different types. Some Pokemon are more elusive than others. You will need key items such as a fishing pole to catch some Pokemon.

Starting out in the game you find yourself transformed into a Pokemon! After taking a Pokemon personality test the form of your Pokemon will be revealed. Washed ashore on the beach a fellow Pokemon is beside you asking for your help in finding lost treasure. You can form rescue teams to discover the mystery around your transformation as you hunt for lost treasure along the way. Explore this fantastic land untouched by human hands as you join hundreds of Pokemon in randomly-generated dungeons.

Utilizing the Wi-fi connection feature enables players to rescue each other or send out your own SOS for help. With 16 available playable Pokemon including Chimarchar, Munchlax, Piplup as well as previous Pokemons including Pikachu, Squirtle, and Charmander the fun never stops! Keep a keen eye out for familiar faces from Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl as well. With over 490 Pokemon and non-repeating dungeons this game ensure infinite exploration. Explore long-lost dungeons or hunt down criminal Pokemon. The choice is yours in this open-ended game.

For years you've captured, traded and battled with them; now it's time once again to become a Pokemon yourself! It's time to join the adventures of Treasure Town.

Fans of the two previous Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games, Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, will marvel at the greatly enhanced graphics, new story and grand adventure in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness. For Game Boy Advance owners, the fresh look and wireless aspects of these new Pokemon titles provide even more reasons to upgrade to Nintendo DS. And best of all for budget-conscious parents, Nintendo DS is also able to play the entire library of Game Boy Advance games.

You can also save and share your Pokemon photos with friends via the Wii message board. You can challenge them to see who's captured the best Pokemon poses!

5 out of 5 stars Even Better Than Previous PMDs!   July 4, 2008
This game was given to me for my birthday, and I had extremely high expectations for it. Fortunately, I was not disappointed. This game had an enchanting storyline to go along with the vivid graphics and characters. Like with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red and Blue, it has a sad ending, but with a joyous conclusion. Throughout the game are twists and turns so amazing that you can't be sure what to think, or who to trust.
The only problem I can find is the long cut-scenes, but I can hardly complain, as they are crucial to understanding the the whole story. Along terms of difficulty, the bosses are hard, but not not too hard. All your other opponents seem easy, but they can be deadly.



5 out of 5 stars Pokemon Explorers of Time Review   July 3, 2008
Love these rescue-type games! I feel like a hero when I have accomplished rescue jobs! Many graphics in the game are beautiful, and it is simple to learn!


4 out of 5 stars A game that sticks to the plot...literally!   June 30, 2008
I have Pokemon Dungeon Red and Blue. Having both, it didn't take much for me to want the new Explorers of Time and Darkness.
I've noticed a big difference in between the new games, and the Red and Blue versions.
In Time and Darkness, yes. You can play a pokemon just like the older versions. But you pretty much stick with the plotline. Unlike the older versions, where in some parts of the game, you could take jobs as much as you wanted.
In Time and Darkness, you can take side paths indefinitely, or go back to the beginning of a dungeon in some parts. But you can't take as many jobs as you like, for as long as you want.
The dungeons also seem to get a lot harder, and have traps during some parts of the story plot. It also seems a lot harder to recruit new pokemon to join your team.
It's still a fun game. But has a lot of cons to it. But if you like Mystery Dungeon. Give it a go.



4 out of 5 stars only pokemon finaly!   June 17, 2008
this game is pretty sad at the end, but other than that, it's pretty fun.when I graduated from the guild (at the end) they gave me tons of money, but I fergot to put it in the bank, so I lost it all. DON'T make that mastake! its the best pokemon gam I've played, with only pokemon.


5 out of 5 stars Really Fun!   June 16, 2008
This game is addictive. It is a dramatic, emotional, and friendship seeking game. Even though when the game is over, there is even more fun stuff to do! Even though it can be beaten in about a week, this game is really fun! You should get this if youy are a fan of pokemon, and liked the first game. I aim to get all 490 Pokemon.
