VBA Link GBA emulator with multiplayer linking support for trading Pokemons from one rom to another.

Graphics: 10/10

The quality of the graphics have significantly improved from its DP counterpart. The sprites are more dynamic that, in turn, make the pocket monsters look more active, even lifelike in their movements.

Even the back sprites have been animated, too, which adds to the visual value of the game especially since previous versions involved the Pokemon just shaking and glowing according to their color type (e.g., red or blue). Now, the Pokemon have a certain level of animation, which is a nice touch. The Sinnoh-Dex Pokemon’ sprites look great except for Golbat, especially his annoying wings down appearance.

Of all these enhancements, the Distortion World shows the DS capabilities in their best light. The Distortion World has a 3D effect that has the appearance of an M.C. Escher painting in terms of jumping onto ceilings and walls frequently. Many of the places have also been enhanced in their graphics – caves have a darker vibe coupled with more realistic lighting effects, Stark Mountain features lava pools outside, the Battle Zone (i.e., an island opened only after winning the game) has palm trees, and the Great Marsh has a truly swampy appearance.

Gameplay: 10/10

Even the battle system has shown great improvements from its DP predecessor, too. The battles move at a significantly faster rate – instead of wasting time waiting for the text to be completed before an attack move can be made, both the battle animation and text are flashed almost simultaneously on the screen.

Surfing is also a joy! The surfing experience in DP was the slowest in any game, which reduced the positive gaming experience. In the Platinum version, fortunately, you can surf so much faster especially in comparison with running.

But I have a complaint about Platinum: its save times. The process of saving data usually takes twice as long in this version than it did in the Diamond version. This is true even when all of your boxes in the Diamond version are full while your Platinum box only has 10 Pokemon, the former version still has faster saving capabilities than the latter version.

After beating the game, you will find many more challenges that will test your battle skills at the Battle Frontier. The slow save times is a small price to pay for such a bonus.

Multiplayer: 9/10

Nintendo also ensured that the online play still retained its great quality. But Nintendo seems to want more profits, thus, resulting in the absence of random battles, as is the case in PBR.

The Global Trade Station (GTS) allows gamers to trade with their fellow players anywhere in the world provided that the desired Pokemon has been spotted. But there’s a glitch: In the early Platinum copies released in the United States, you cannot see the Pokemon level that the other gamer wants. While it can be annoying, you shouldn’t consider it an issue since it will not have this issue, if you haven’t purchased the game yet.

You can also send the game to Nintendo if and when you want the glitch to be fixed. But you will lose all of your saved data and, thus, I don’t recommend it. You can also play the mini-games along with other players worldwide, thanks to the all-new Wi-Fi Plaza. You will likely find that these mini-games may not be the best but these aren’t half-bad either.

Online 9/10

The online play in the Diamond version is also great although it didn’t earn 10 points because of compatibility issues. The frustration lies in the Netgear wireless router’s incompatibility with the Wii on the DS although I quickly realized that it’s the latter’s fault more than anything else – but still!

Thankfully, the online battles with other gamers is great as well as the countless number of people that you can trade with. Plus, the Pokemon Trade Center – just dump a pocket monster that you’re no longer interested in and switch it for a Pokemon on your trading list, all without even looking for a trainer on the board. It’s such a convenient feature that outweighs the inconvenience of the compatibility issues.

Replay Value 10/10

Among the best things about the Pokemon games is their replay value, an observation shared by newbies and veterans of the game alike. The hundreds of pocket monsters is one of the reasons for its high replay value especially since it’s always worth the time, energy and effort to beat the game every time.

In your case, how many of the games in your game collection have you beaten three times, at least? Less than half, I bet! With 493 Pokemon on board, you will appreciate the achievement in beating all of them at least once.

The bottom line: You have to play the game plenty of times to enjoy the entire Pokemon experience – and that’s the point of the game!

Overall 9/10

I was excited, perhaps overly so, about the release of the Diamond version, as was the case for all of the previous releases, because Game Freak doesn’t disappoint with every Pokemon version released. The games was everything I hoped it would be and everything I wanted in a Pokemon game and, thus, it’s a must-have in any game collection.

For $35, you can enjoy great gameplay, good graphics, and high replay value, which means plenty of hours being immersed in the Pokemon world. You may be unable to put it down unless wild horses tear you away from it, figuratively speaking.

A Review of the Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

For veteran gamers, adopting a cynical attitude toward the Pokemon franchise becomes easier with each sequel, remake and new version released by Nintendo and Game Freak. The story’s almost always the same – a young hero or heroine on a quest to become a Pokemon Champion; a team of evil characters with plans for world domination; and a turn-based battling system, among other familiar elements. For this reason, gamers are justified in saying that Game Freak launches an updated version of a successful predecessor, watches it become a hit, and then dashes off with their money.

But the more times I play the Pokemon series, the more I keep playing it over and over again, and the more I observed its subtle evolution from its predecessors. The script has become stronger while the moments have become more enriching, even personal in nature. The turn-based battling system, which was inspired by JRPG-inspired battles, is at the heart of it all as well as more suitable for mature adventure games, such as the great Chrono Cross.

Indeed, the Pokemon franchise is a good one. While it isn’t ironically good while its strengths lies not in nostalgia but in great gameplay, it’s as good as a game involving pocket monsters can be.

In the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire versions, the adventure begins in the same manner as in previous games. Your journey begins in a quiet town where you and your family has just relocated though the reasons aren’t clear. You set out on an epic journey of traveling the world, capturing Pokemon, and defeating the Gym Leaders, Elite Four and an evil team along the way, as well as developing closer relationships with your pocket monsters.

But in these versions, the emotional connection between the trainer and his Pokemon has a certain level of mechanical reinforcement added to it. The games have updates from many of Pokemon X and Y like Pokemon Amie, which allows players to pet, play and feed their pocket monsters. Indeed, Pokemon Amie strengthens the analogy of a virtual pet, which encourages players to spend time with their pocket monsters and friends.

The personal connection becomes a tangible connection with a poignant quality to it. This is true especially when you pour in the time, energy and effort in giving your pocket monsters pet-related care like names, breeding, and grooming. For example, I named Swampert, a Pokemon, as Lumpy resulting in a personal attachment absent in most RPG games, even in past Pokemon games – indeed, one of the reasons why the Pokemon franchise is still popular even after more than a decade in the industry. I may have enjoyed seeing Lumpy perform kickass moves against entire teams of rivals but when he was poisoned, I felt his pain and rushed him to the nearest Pokemon Center.

The 3D graphical upgrades implemented in Pokemon X and Y were also carried over into these games. But I must say that I’m more impressed with Hoenn now than with the previous year’s Kalos because of its brighter and livelier art. Even its locales are strangely fresher than expected considering Ruby and Sapphire’s dominance in the past. Many of the characters in Ruby and Sapphire are more emotive and expressive, which gave the ensemble cast more personality, style and depth although these have also been played for laughs, too.

Even the foundation has remained unchanged since its first introduction more than a decade ago when the Ruby and Sapphire versions were released. However, Nintendo has made it clear that the remakes aren’t just graphics overhaul of their predecessors, such as in the unexpected extra care poured into many elements of the game. Of these updates, the improved writing was the most notable, which wasn’t an accident either judging from Nintendo’s track record in this aspect.

The Pokemon X and Y versions, which were released last year, completely amazed gamers including myself with the emotive quality of their characters and the biting intensity of their combined plot. While the plot may have been corny, its text was cleverly made, packed a punch, and surprisingly in-depth for what’s considered a children’s series. Of all the passages, these paraphrased words stuck with me:

“To the person reading this: What and who are you now? Where your dreams of who you wanted to become realized? What was the kind of person you wanted to be in the first place? I don’t know the answers but it would be so wonderful to hear that, indeed, you’re living every single day to the fullest. To the future Sycamore, from the present Sycamore dreaming of the future!”

While these lines may be fleeting, these carry a surprising weight that can be applied to your own daily life. The message, which was a gift from Sycamore, your mentor, is carved underneath a plain bench in a transit station. Many of my fellow gamers failed to find it and I have to admit that I only found it because somebody alerted me to its presence – look around until something special is found, so I was told.

While there was nothing in the Alpha Sapphire version that made a similar impact, this game was more straightforward with its philosophical messages. Many times, the villains even explicitly suggested that I was the evil force in their world and that I must strive to understand their decisions, among other encouragements. Don’t worry about these philosophical messages being too serious or plunging into melodrama, as is the case with Spec Ops, because Nintendo usually posed them in a casual manner, even with a humorous slant.

The main conflict in these new games revolves around two nearly identical groups vying for control of the Pokemon world’s resources. On one hand, Team Magma plans on reviving Groudon, an ancient beast, and on covering the world in more land so as to provide people with more places to live on. On the other hand, Team Aqua wants to drown the world in a great flood, awaken Kyogre, an ancient whale, and create a safe haven for the marine Pokemon.

As the game’s protagonist, you have to decide which team you must stop by using your team of Pokemon characters. While it’s cheesy and superficial, it’s alright because it can be engaging in its own way for gamers of all ages. For adults, the engaging wit and quality of the dialogue holds their attention while for children, the story of good-versus-evil sustains it – or to put it in another way, the story is approachable for its young audience yet contains a deeper layer of subtext for its older audience. Think of the success of the best Disney movies and it’s the same for Pokemon.

When the original games were released, I was a troubled teenager such that when these remakes were released, I’m already in my early 20s. As a teenager, I played through the Ruby version on a Game Boy Advance, which I had to hide from my parents, in part because it was stolen. Over time, I became an avid fan of the Pokemon franchise, as evidenced by my ownership of nearly all Pokemon games.

Many fans can recall the obtuse solutions to the puzzles in the Ruby and Sapphire versions, especially with a few of the rare pocket monsters requiring basic knowledge of the Braille system to find. Nintendo didn’t provide a player’s guide, not to mention that none of my fellow gamers/friends knew about it, which meant that it took several months before I was finally able to figure out the sequence.

My Pokemon review copies have already been in possession for a few weeks now. Let’s just say that the gaming experience of the remakes was eerily similar, even without published guides. In the Digital Age, keeping secrets hidden for prolonged periods is more challenging despite the release of these games in the United States. Indeed, it’s slightly amazing that many gamers have yet to figure out the secrets in these Pokemon re-issues, which is a good thing since it provides gamers with a genuine experience of exploring new territory.

Suffice it to say that Pokemon continues to endure because of its strong emotional core coupled with refined mechanical slices, good storytelling, and great graphics.

Pokemon Black Version 2 DS / 3DS Emulator

I love this game! The developer did a good job with their first ever Pokemon sequel. Even if other people might say that we’re only wasting our money, it’s still worth the pleasure of finishing this game. You might have to pay $40 usd for it but you will also get 200 hours of gameplay from it. Read full Pokemon Black Version 2 Emulator review.

Nintendo DS / 3DS White Version 2 Emulators

It still has the same great graphics and a super improved storyline. Don’t be surprised if the storyline starts off differently compared to the first version’s plot. There are also new additions to this version, such as The PokeStar Studios and the DNA Splicers. If you want to combine Kyurem with Reshiram or Zekrom for a Black or White Kyurem, use the DNA Splicers. In my case, I created a White Kyurem, which helped me win my fights.

Pokemon X 3DS Emulator?

While DS/3DS compatible games like Poke Black & White can be emulated using DS emulators at this time there are no emulators for pure 3DS games so NO Pokemon X emulation on PC. Numerous fake emu sites offer 3DSemu for cash or for filing out surveys, but so far they all are scams made for profit. And yes - that Youtube video you saw was doctored to look real.

Pokemon X Review - Despite the innovations and evolutions, in its core Pokemon X still plays like one of the usual Pokemon games. For sure you can spend more time petting your Pikachu and you can get to choose from a bigger variety of starters, but Pokemon X still lands in the same comfort zone Pokemon followers have found themselves in for years and for a total of 6 generations and that is not a bad thing! Developers, I must say, somehow did a great task of cleaning up certain aging mechanics and creating a visually stimulating Pokemon world any Pokemon fan would be crazy not to explore!

Pokemon Y Emulator for PC?

Pokemon games that were made to work on 3DS can now be emulated on a Windows PC, Mac OS X, iOS devices or Android phones and tablets. Before this - the only way to play X&Y for free is using 'hardware emulation' - that is copying game to one of the microSD flash card adapters and playing it on Nintendo 3DS ... so you still need the handheld.

Best PoKeMoN Emulator for PC • Windows 10 and macOS are evolving and soon you will be able to play the games at full speed with sound and with all the features including linking and trading.

Pokemon Y can be considered a great additions to the franchise and is perfect for all Pokemon gamers – both the enthusiasts who turned their backs on the series and the fanatics who have been supporting the games all these years. Since generation 6 is considered a mega evolution of its own, Y is highly recommended for anyone who is a fan or even just a 3DS owner who is thinking of completing their game collections.

A Ranking of Pokemon Games

With more than 20 core titles, many of which have slight variations as well as dozens of side stories (about 30 as of last count), the Pokemon world is a huge one. Newcomers into it will likely be overwhelmed by the things that must be understood. In the following sections, I shall rank the series so that you can catch all of the best, whether you’re a newbie or a veteran seeking to restart your Pokemon League game.

I must first emphasize that this isn’t Kotaku’s picks - instead, I made this list on my own. I must also say that this list doesn’t mean that one game in the series is superior in comparison with the rest. I must also say that I would give every game a gold star if that’s possible but it isn’t based on my personal experience of playing all of the games – and I mean I played all of the games in the market now.

I will only be discussing the Pokemon games core series, which span the Red and Blue games to the Black 2 and White 2 games. I have also decided to skip the apparently countless spin-offs and side stories in the current Pokemon Universe. I wanted to save on the time, energy and effort as well as the arguments and headaches that come with discussing the nitty-gritty details, too.

I also want to emphasize that this isn’t a definitive list. I am actually encouraging you, our dear readers, to provide inputs and feedbacks about your own Pokemon franchise rankings. You may even be able to change my mind about these rankings so place your comments after reading the article.

Video Game Emulator together with a patch can also translate Pokemon games into other languages, modify existing games, and help in developing homebrew demos and fresh games for older systems.

Other benefits of Video Game Console Emulators are:

It maintains the original appearance of Pokemon games, touch and feel of the original because that is similarly significant as the digital data inside.
Over time, it proves to be more cost-efficient solution to users - emulators are free.

Pokémon Generation I
Red / Blue / Yellow

Who says that the original can easily be eclipsed by the succeeding generations? With the Pokemon Generation I games, which created the international phenomenon we know today, they are as challenging as ever. For example, you will still find that catching the 151 original Pokemon still has its challenges despite the absence of running and the presence of dual types. You will still find deep satisfaction in starting in Pallet Town, defeating Team Rocket, and beating Gary or Blue, not to mention the satisfaction that comes from the knowledge that Generation I and Generation II are virtually connected.

Can You Play Any New Pokemon Games On Mac Download

The hard part: Where will you find either a Gameboy or a Gameboy Advance that can be used to play these Pokemon games? Keep in mind that Red/Green were redeveloped for Generation III.

Of all the games, Yellow was the most popular game experience for children in the post-90s times, especially for those whose childhood years were marked by avid watching of the popular Pokemon cartoon. It was also memorable because of its deliberately close resemblance to the Pokemon television series, thanks to the Team Rocket addition, as well as Pikachu’s attitude of following Red around and for its Pika Pika sounds; Pokemon characters usually just made garbled noises. It also had a great mini-game with a surfing Pikachu.

Pokémon Generation II
Gold / Silver / Crystal

Of course, Pokemon’s first generation was special! But Pokemon started opening up to new possibilities in Generation II for several reasons. Dual types were formally introduced – for example, Charizard can fly now although I already knew it in Yellow but not in Green, Red and Blue – while the introduction of the day-and-night cycle allowed for new ways in playing. The time of the day or night now mattered since certain Pokemon characters can only be caught at specific times, which made the gameplay interesting yet frustrating, too. Generation II also expanded on the previous Friendship/Happiness system, in addition to the day and week cycles, which was introduced during the Yellow stage. The result: Pokemon grew through their apparent devotion and dedication to their trainers.

Aside from these new elements, the second generation Pokemon also had the longest main game section, thanks to the original Gyms addition. Notable developments were also made, such as bringing back Brock, giving Red a Pikachu, and allowing players to fight Red, which were such an explosive concept here the fans where concerned. Add in the cellphone system allowing trainers to engage in battle again, which resulted in more replay value, and Pokemon II took off.

I believe, too, that 251 Pokemon had the right amount going for it!

Of all the Generation 2 games, Pokemon Crystal was arguably the best game, thanks to the fact that it was a Gold and Silver extension. Crystal also had more replay value because of the addition of the choice of gender for its main character, the battle tower, and the Suicune central storyline – indeed, the already packed installment became better!

If you were unsuccessful in finding a Gameboy on which to play Generation II, you needn’t worry. This is because the game designers remade the Gold and Silver games into SoulSilver and HeartGold in Generation IV.

Pokémon Generation III
Ruby / Sapphire / Emerald
Leaf Green / Fire Red

Generation III could have been ranked higher on this list, especially with the addition of better contests including double battles, better animation, and better movement (e.g., running). But with the new focus on the value systems in IV and EV, the games became too serious in my opinion, thus, their drop to number three. While I can also understand the appeal of the Pokemon contests, these weren’t right up my alley.

There was also the weaker designs of Pokemon in Generation III, which I consider among the biggest issues. For example, Blaziken, Torchic, and Feebas were just too weak in comparison with the originals while many design choices, such as the removal of the time cycle with more focus on the weather element, were just too odd for my taste.

While there aren’t any Generation III breakout titles, Emerald stood out in my opinion. Perhaps this isn’t surprising as Emerald is a Ruby and Sapphire extension, as is the case for Yellow, Platinum, and Crystal.

Pokemon Emerald Emulator Download
Pokémon Puzzle League N64

Pokémon Generation IV
Diamond / Platinum / Pearl
HeartGold / SoulSilver

Generation IV has many things going for it, such as the fact that these were the first fully-3D Pokemon games and the first games wherein Pokemon characters can be battled and exchanged online. But why then doesn’t it rank higher in this list despite its remakes of Gold and Silver? This is because, at its heart, both SoulSilver and HeartGold are remakes, even when Typhlosion can follow me all over town.

Generation IV is widely considered as a technological milestone in the Pokemon universe despite these debatable developments. Plus, it made Pokemon look better as well as paved the way for the upcoming X and Y newer animations. But as a standalone game, I must say that it’s not a major leap from Generation II and Generation III.

You can’t go wrong with either SoulSilver or HeartGold. Your game experiences will likely be better in comparison with Generation IV’s three main games, thanks to the extra gym battles and the feelings of nostalgia.

Pokémon Generation V
Black / White
Black 2 / White 2

The Generation V games were considered as direct sequels to the Pokemon game, a first for the series. But it wasn’t much a forward development since it only increased the number of Pokemon characters, which was already relatively large then. In fact, there are now 649 Pokemon excluding those seen in X and Y so far.

Generation V has its good point, too, particularly that the Technical Machines (TM) were designed with highly similar qualities as the HMs – both now have infinite uses. But even its addition was a double-edge sword in that the game became easier to play and, in the process, less challenging. Even until now, I have yet to decide whether a flamethrower as a TM is a good thing or not.

In Generation V, my favorites were Black 2 and White 2 for several reasons. Their storylines were more player-friendly (i.e., accessible), especially when White and Black were already part of your game repertoire. Despite such similarities, nonetheless, these were individual titles able to hold their own ground. The Black Tree and White Tree Hollow addition also provides several extra hours of battle times as well as added a plot extension.

The games were also engaging, challenging in a way, and fun to play. But at day’s end, Pokemon fatigue becomes evident, no thanks to the fact that the Generation V characters were just too many to trade, catch and battle with.
