A beautiful remaster of one of my favorite games from childhood. While it didn't hook me as much this time around, it was a lovely way to feel nostalgic for those long car rides in 2006, DS in hand.

Controls are somewhat picky and the plot is lacking (because it's a Pokemon game, come on) but the art style is among my favorite of any Pokemon game, the remastered soundtrack is incredible, and the combat is as good as ever.
