Don't get me wrong, it's a good Pokemon game, but it still loses its shine compared to the Platinum, Fire Red and Soul Silver games. The soundtrack is acceptable and the map is quite short compared to Diamond or Pearl. The strongest point of this game would be the mega evolutions and the fact that it merges the Pokédex well from various regions, many of the Pokémon that I like and consider essential were captureable and this made me very positive about the game. The story is a bit cliché, I believe that the strong point is more the game's past than the present. It's not a complex story like Sinnoh's lore, but that doesn't categorize it as bad, just that it's acceptable. My review? 3.5
