Pokemon colosseum is a nice game,but once again I'd like to bring up something important about this game!
Much like Pokemon stadium,there seems to be alot of strange coincidences within this game. Listen carefully...
While playing pokemon colosseum,you're bound to notice several odd coincidences that always work in your enemies favor!
Such coincidences may include;Low-accuracy moves hit you without fail,Your enemy's pokemon is far stronger than normally possible,
Your enemy can switch pokemon even when the moves "Mean Look" & "Spider web" are active,and lastly,One-hit KO moves like "Fissure" never seem to fail or miss!
Take note: These things will not always happen but they do happen sometimes within the game. I've come to call these coincidences "Cheat-Detectors" because they only seem to happen when you're doing particularly well in a battle.
C'mon,that's just not a fair thing to put in a kid's game!!!
With those things aside,this is a very good game,and it's worth the $19.99 that you would usually pay for it.

The story starts with a young heroic figure named "Wes" who's just succeeded in destroying the hideout of a notorious criminal organization, "Team Snagem" Wes has managed to destroy Team Snagem's hideout,and has also managed to steal their latest project,the "Snag-Machine" a machine that enables pokeballs to steal trainer's pokemon from them. But little does Wes know,Team Snagem was just a warm-up for whats coming next!
Wes must face the mysterious criminal syndacate,"Cipher" if he ever wants to rescue the pokemon that are being made evil for criminal purposes. He better watch out,Cipher makes past enemies like,"Team Rocket" look like what they really are,Over-the-top saturday morning cartoon bad guys.

Pros:New story mode with a convincing enemy,can enter your GBA trained pokemon into this game,very nice looking graphics,and a few toe-tapping melodies,and somewhat convincing enemy crime-syndicate.

Cons:You cannot upload your pokemon from previous games like pokemon Red/blue & Gold/silver, requires a whopping 48 memory card blocks to save, No spoken diologue within the game, most tasks within the game are to hard for me let alone a child, takes a really long time to purify Shadow pokemon, and you can only register one party of pokemon at a time.

NOTE:If you want to play this game you'll need two things, a memory card that can store over 48 blocks, and a GBA/Gamecube link-cable. You only need the cable if you plan to use GBA pokemon, don't buy any other cable besides the offical Nintendo brand, any other type of cable won't work! "Trust me, I know from experience that a non-offical link cable won't work!"
