Gameplay
Capture wild Pokémon and create a team to clear obstacles and solve puzzles encountered along the way. After players use a Pokémon's ability, it will leave the player's team; however, you will have a Partner Pokémon that will always stay by your side. As you progress through Missions and Quests, your Capture Styler becomes more powerful, giving your Styler more Energy and eventually advancing you to the level of Top Ranger.

Characters
Harness the power of hundreds of different Pokémon. In addition, players can choose to be a boy or girl Pokémon Ranger.

Key Game Features

  • Pokémon Ranger is a unique action-adventure series that features a fun, different way to capture Pokémon with the Nintendo DS stylus, which controls an item called the Capture Styler in the game. Players circle the Pokémon they want to catch by drawing circles around them on the touch screen. When you complete certain Quests, the Ranger Union awards you with power-ups, which add new upgrades and functions to your Capture Styler, allowing you to advance as you work to eventually become a Top Ranger (the most revered Ranger of all).
  • Now you can partner with a variety of different Pokémon of each type to complete Missions-giving you many options on how to approach different challenges. Every Pokémon is different, and capturing a Pokémon allows you to use its abilities to overcome various obstacles and challenges you will face along the way. The job of a Pokémon Ranger is never done: your duties will include fighting wildfires, rescuing people or even delivering an important package.
  • Your journey to become a Top Ranger takes you to the new region of Almia. This game has a larger world, more Missions, more adventure and more to do than the previous Pokémon Ranger games. It has a storyline full of adventure and the ability to travel to and explore many exciting new areas in Almia, including oceans, forests, deserts and more with the help of your Partner Pokémon.
  • This is the first game in the Pokémon Ranger series to feature Pokémon from Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl.
Special Powers, Weapons, Moves & Features
Use the Capture Styler to capture wild Pokémon. Once they are captured, wild Pokémon will follow the player around until their powers are used (either in a Poké Assist or a Field Move).

  • A Poké Assist is when the player uses an already captured Pokémon to help capture another wild Pokémon.
  • A Field Move is when the player uses a captured Pokémon's power to clear an obstacle that blocks his way or perform any another helpful function with it.

5Awesome Nintendo has once again created a spectacular game  Nov 12, 2008 By Misty Evans "Misty"
I am currently playing Pokemon Ranger: shadows of almia, and it is so different from the first. The missions which in the first lacked somewhat, are a lot harder. You also have Quests, which are things you are asked to do by villagers. When you first start out in the game you are a student at a Ranger school, where you learn how to play the game. After graduating you are sent to your home in chicole town. But you are a ranger in Veil town, which is nextdoor. So home is always close by. Another new feature is the fact you can have more then one pokemon partner. You get these by doing Quests. When you complete quests you get new stuff for your ranger styler. To get higher rank is alot harder as well, but that makes the game more fun. You have new bad guys in the game, and are very challenging. The fun ascpet of the first game is still there along with the awesome character artowrk and personalities. I highly recomend this game to any poke fan!

5Better than expected  Nov 16, 2008 By Rachel Jones "Anime Girl ^__^"
Shadows of almia is a LOT better than the first one. The story mode walks you more clearer through the game. The first one was a little scrambled but this one is a lot more clearer. I'm still currently playing and cant seem to put it down.. Can't wait to get further into the game and see what more unfolds! Also can't wait to get the special quests done!

5Superb fun for all  Nov 23, 2008 By Sophia Harris "puzzle addict"
I haven't had so much fun with pokemon in a long time. Much better than the first one. Lots more interesting. Never a dull moment from mission to the quests. If your new to Pokemon Ranger Series, this one is by the far the best and most enjoyable. Hint, Hint a strategy guide helps!
I recommend it for all ages.
enjoy

5Fun But Underappreciated Pokemon Game  Dec 17, 2008
This game is a sequel to Pokemon RAnger which was very good and you should get. IN this game lots of pokemon from the Sinnoh Reigon show up for you to "capture". To capture pokemon you loop around them with your stylus or "styler" in the game and use poke power ups. There is a great story line with a cool, but predictable twist at the endgame. This game is really worth it, but I wish I could have found out more about the game from the blurb on the back of the box. Anyway, this is an awesome game I reccomend for all people who are about 8 to 12 years old (like me)!

4Alright, but not as great as it could be  Aug 18, 2010 By Char739
Well, I'll have to admit, the reason I bought this game in the first place was because I enjoyed the Role Playing of the Pokemon Diamond/Pearl games. But of course, this is not the same.

The story is, you are a Pokemon Ranger, so your job is to help everybody you meet in order to progress in the game. You start off in the school, which was actually really enjoyable and was my favorite part of the game. And then, as you graduate and do missions, you will gain ranks, until you get the coveted Level 10.

I love the concept of the capturing pokemon with your stylus, instead of effortlessly trying to weaken it, and end up killing it. But some problems I had was the fact I couldn't really do much after I finished the game. I mean, sure there were a whole load of missions that unlock after beating the game, but the requirements for these missions I don't like.

Some of these missions require you to throw out all the pokemon with you, just to show them to the person and they run away afterwords. You love the pokemon with you, but then you just get rid of them? Granted in the show, they described Rangers as only using pokemon when needed, to help them with their quests. So if having all your faves in your team is what you want, I'd suggest playing Diamond and Pearl or Heart Gold and Soul Silver.

So, needless to say, this game is sitting in my room, collecting dust. So, If youmust have this game, just to play and find out it's not for you, I'd recommend selling it to your nearest Game Stop for a few more bucks for your Wallet. That's what will happen to mine anyways.
