I'm looking for some solid DS games to play and I have been known to buy almost every core pokemon game based purely out of nostalgia. This game doesn't offer any pokemon battles in the classic sense and doesn't allow for any type of link with the core game for possibly cool pokemon to transfer over.

Is this game worth a play, and if not, what do you have in your DS?

I know this thread is super old, but if you're still interested I say absolutely try it. It really is a fun mix of Pokemon and strategic gameplay, and the game is just so good. I have over 50 hours logged into the game, and there are still a lot of campaigns I haven't even unlocked yet. This is real swansong of the DS in my opinion.

I totally agree. I have like 30 hours logged.
