Whether you've played ruby, emerald, or sapphire, you will love this game.

I've played all the pokemon games besides black2/white2 but this game is my favorite one I've ever played

For those new to the series, I would recommend playing X or Y instead.

:) Enjoy playing, everyone~

More legendary Pokemon, more game play content, and a great in game user-interface.

but what I have played is pretty fun

One of the best games I've ever played

Purchased a new ds 2 xl to play this game and I am not disappointed best Pokemon game I have played since the originals.

Connecting with players from across the world has been made much more easier; if you're into competitive play and testing out the strength of your team, you can give these WiFi features a whirl

Given as a gift, but sincerely well received & played 4 many, many hrs.

Daughter absolutely loves it and has played through multiple times!

just as great as the original

It felt like a chore compared to Pokemon X/Y until about a third or a half of the way through the game

but then there is relatively less to do with them (still this game is better than X/Y in terms of the post game activities.

I did enjoy the customization of the character in X and Y that you don't get in Ruby or Sapphire, though.

Then I played Pokemon Y and was blown away
