Video Game Reviews of Pokemon Dash
Customer Review: The game where you only get to play as pikachu and only that pokemon.
Summary: 2 Stars
This game actually gets a 2.5 rating but it dosn't show. I will try to make this review reasonble.(Sorry for the spelling mistake if it is a mistake. And please forget me for any spelling mistakes that pop up.) I have previouly done kirby reviews but they were very basic and not very helpful,so I'm trying my best now. The review begins here now.
The story is... there is no story. You're just racing against other pokemon to be the 1st place champion and that's just it. And having a small to no story is not always bad...it's just that this game needs a story that's a little stronger like the old red and blue pokemon games. The introduction screen is not much but has the best garafics you will see in the game. The in game races have playstation 1 garafics and some of the things in the game look choppy. Nintendo could of put a little more effort in the garafics like in metroid prime hunters or final fantasy 3 DS. The game has three dificulty levels, five cups, and five courses in each cup. In novince mode, the opponet pokemon are very slow so you can easly beat them. In hard mode, It's just hard. And in expert mode, you have diffrent rules and the diffuculty is a nightmare. Like the title says you can only play as pikachu and only as it. Some of you who might be getting this game might think that I just making this up and/or haven't played the game, but I'm not making these things and I've finished the game. You can't play as other pokemon at all. The other stuff you can do is pretty useless. In this game you use the stylus to move pikachu forward to the next check point and the way you move you're pokemon can seriouly damage the touch screen. Yes, you have to get to all check points before the others do in order to win. The races are on foot and there are diffrent types of terain such as stone,sand,and grass.There are items that allow you to move across a cretain terain faster and sometimes nulifies a certain effect. And the amunt of ballons you pop will depand what kind of terain you're landing on. If you fall into a pit, touch the lava twice, Drown in deep water, or fall in trees you will lose time and be throwen back in the air or back on the closest land. The AI can be cheep like the ones in mario kart super cuircit. In expert mode, you have to come up with you're own effective routes to win the races. The music is pretty average or decent though I love red cup and ending credits music. When you finish the game, there's not much to do left and replay vaule is very low. I believe the impact this game made on the DS is little to none. This game may be eventually forgotten. If you want a racing game, buy mario kart DS instead. If you want to try this game, then I suggest renting it first.
