Is Battle Revolution worth the cash?
Pokémon Battle Revolution has been out for a little while in my country, however I have heard mixed feelings about it, I'd like some feedback on whether it's worth the money. Taxes in my country are very high for various reasons, and that makes video games quite expensive, so I generally do not buy a new one very often.

Not really.You can get free pokemon and some items for beating the game and getting points but the game is plain.All you do is just go beat up a few pokemon and that's it,the story is just that plain.The Wi-fi is quite horrible too.Lots of people are horrible and don't EV train or use ubers or do both things.
|
someone told me it stinks. the person told me that all you do is you verse people with random pokemon and you verse random trainers. the only reason to get the game is to get magmortar and electrivire in your pokemon diamond/pearl.
|
Not worth it mate...
you have a choice of pokemon which are always crap to fight with you can like never catch anything... the pokemon are chosen for you and change when you battle another trainer |
You can use your own pokemon from your Diamond/Pearl version and you can win prizes and stuff for doing well. It's basically like Pokemon Stadium from the N64 or the Battle Tower. I like it for getting items I couldn't get in Diamond and for testing teams I want to use against my friends. If you like the battling stuff like the Battle Tower or Pokemon Stadium I'd buy it.
|
The only thing it's good for is random online matches (which diamond and pearl should have provided...) and the decent-looking graphics. Worth 50 bucks? No. Hell no. Worth 20 when Nintendo realizes it's overpriced? Yes. Worth a rent atleast.
|
They'll lower the price, they always make games cheaper when they've been out longer.
|

I don't know why it is still 50 bucks. They really need to put it to 20 new. I'll get it right away for 20. I'd love to try some random battles and such.
|
I'ma try to rent this game and just get the unlockable stuff for Pearl. ^_^
If I like it, I may buy it used. |
eh, i use it to get things like salac berries and such, and to test out my d/p teams.
|
I own it and found it pretty okay. Sure this could have been better but, I enjoy anyway as you can use your D/P pokes to complete the game and to go battle over Wi-Fi.
Pretty good way to get in 3D battles I think. But you should rent it first to check out if you like it ;) |
The game is only good for one thing: Random Wi-Fi battles when no one wants to battle you on DS.
Of course, no one buys PBR without actually having a Diamond or Pearl Team ready. Because otherwise, there's nothing you can do. |
Are there any Items/TMs available through getting PBR? An Extra Life Orb or Stealth Rock TM would be nice...
|
if you think getting some berries evolution items Magmortar, elektrivire and a pikachu is worth it then yes...
|
Maybe the Items are also worth, but I really just bought it for the Random Wi-Fi battles!

There are items available on PBR, but no Life orb or Stealth Rock. Check Serebii first, next time.
|
I like it for the Battling. I like battling anyway. BUT, exception with Pearl as it is really tedious getting my pokes up levels.
|
I would have to say no, I haven't touched it since I first played it.
|
id rather break my disk then keep the game, its terrible
|
Well Tsuroerusu, have you decided yet?
|
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... Rental or On Sale, don't go for the whole 50 |
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 |
For Lugia though, u need to purify it which is impossible isnt it?
