Is Battle Revolution worth the cash?

    I... actually enjoy it, yeah its stupid that it has no storyline and is probably just an extension of Pokemon Diamond/Pearl. However there are some qualities about it I like:
    - WiFi battle with anyone - SURE it can be a bit slow but hey, what can I say? Its WiFi, it also gives you the chance of playing someone completely random, although you should be aware of those endless teams of legendary Pokemon :: shudder :: I hate using Legends
    - Item/Pokemon Receiving - Ok my hands are in the air with all of you when you say its a time guzzler just trying to get all those points, but if you have the time to EV train your Pokemon, Breed Pokemon for specific stats and Natures and Egg moves, why wouldn't you have time to get the Items/Pokemon?
    - Graphics - They're nothing TOO special, but my day gets brighter when I watch Metagross just float a couple feet to Hammer Arm his opponents or when Drapion decides to hump the ground (try it, you'll laugh)

    thats... pretty much it for me...

    Not worth the cash, IMO. You're better off getting almost any other proper Wii game from Nintendo than getting PBR.

    It would be wiser to get a Gamecube and buy Colosseum and XD.....

    They have better prizes than Battle Revolution, such as Ho-Oh and Lugia (Which are normally only available through events) and Johto starters

    Plus, they are RPGs which makes them fun

    Actually, it really depends. By no standard is it worth $50. Maybe $30-35. However, if you dont have diamond or pearl as well as wi-fi you are wasting your money completely.

    i'd say yes because items that are extremely hard to get in D/P are easier to get in PBR and plus the wifi isnt as bad as everyone says i mean you get your opponents *trainer card* and sort of see diff. tactics from around the world. I havent come across too many uber users and either way it's still fun idk why people say it isn't =/

    in my opinion, i like the game a lot. I mean you can battle someone in Toyko, Japan with the Wi-Fi and you can copy your pokemon from diamond/pearl into the game, so i think it's pretty neat

    Oh no, just no.
    It was a terrible game, with only good graphics and features.
    It is definitely the worst game behind the one where you watch t.v all day.
    It has no story at all.
    But if you are, like some people, easily amused by good graphics, then be my guest.
    but if you focus more on the storyline, don't even consider it.
    so get it only if you like
    • graphics
    • connecting up to the wii with a ds
    • prizes(like surfing pikachu or mystery gift)

    And thats the only good things about it.
    i personally sold my battle revolution because there was no story behind it.

    I got it for Christmas last year and the only really good things about it were getting Magmortar/Electivire as well as various items, and seeing your Pearl/Diamond Pokemon on your TV screen.

    Personally, i think it's totally worth the money. You can battle people around the world, and get free pokemon! PLUS you can do a DS battle with 1 or more friends. But the characters look strange from Diamond/Pearl

    yeah, i got pbr for christmas last year, and my mom forgot to buy Diamond, so we went to gamestop the next day and got the game for half the price cuz we like live there. And we can go anytime to play the games.

    i got it, its fun only if you have a diamond/pearl game and copy it to your pbr game, and you dont need FCs to battle people. Also tournaments are fun too! i totally think everyone should buy it, you can customize your character with different gear, and customize your trainer card, with the pokemon you want, the animations great but you get way more out of it with a pokemon diamond/pearl game.

    yeah, but if wanna battle a specific person, you need their friend code on the Wii in order to battle them. Yeah, my bro loves it and he's 14. He has all psychics in his party,

    Gallade, Kirlia, Mespirit, Uxie, Alelf, and Gardevoir,

    Me, I just mix it up, but right now its two legendaries, 3 hoenn starters, and 1 sinnoh starter

    Its a waste of money unless you have diamond and pearl. Its nice though if you have friends that have PBR or D/P because battling on your tv is a blast. Depending on how your raise your pokemon, you can buy some excellant mystery gift items for your D/P game, as well as a surfing pikachu, a Magmortar, and an Electivire that you can have and send to your friends. The wifi Battleing is a blast because you can battle random people. The only downside of this game is how in some of the Colleseums they give you dumb challenges where you may end up using crap pokemon or screwed over by your own pokemon. I definatly recommend it though.

    if you like seeing pokemon in 3-d the game is for you but its very repetative and boring.. the online
    is decent but there are lots of noobs. The only reason i got it was for the special pokemon and because
    it was the first wifi game for the wii
