 Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! August 3, 2007
this book is very useful for beating the initial game, and it provides sufficient info on how to catch the legendary pokemon. overall, it is a very good guide for beginners, and veteran pokemon gamers.
 It's SO LAZY!!! April 2, 2007

I remember the days when Prima guides for Pokemon were amazing. Nowadays they've gotten amazingly lazy.
For starters, none of the trainers are listed or what pokemon they have, so it's hard to know if someone on the map is a trainer or just a person with advice.
Secondly, most of the maps are from Ruby/Sapphire!!! I can tell because I compared them with my Ruby/Sapphire guide, and they are exactly the same on most routes. Most routes in emerald, though, have some stuff changed, mainly small graphical details, but in many routes there are lots of new trainers, which the map doesn't even show!!!
The guide is also laid out very poorly, as whenever you need to revisit an area, it's not in the next page of the guide, but rather you have to flip back to the section where you first visited the area and look around for the section that talks about what you need to do. This makes it very easy to miss parts of the game that aren't required to actually beat the elite four, and I know I've missed a few things.
My advice: get the Nintendo Power guide or just use the online IGN guide if you need a good walkthrough.
Excellent service and excellent book January 16, 2007

My 7 year old son was really suprised. Loves this book. Learned more english from this book than at school:)).
And finally : how it is possible that I received a package after only 10 days from purchase?? Amazing - faster than local mail in some cases:)).

My son and I was amazed with the quality and detail of this guide. Honestly expected a "whimpy/cheesy" guide. I APOLOGIZE for the under - estimation of the product. Awesome guide with really high quality pictures and detail. Get it ALL for the *Emerald in this guide! Really great price too!
