Gameplay
Capture wild Pok?mon and create a team to clear obstacles and solve puzzles encountered along the way. After players use a Pok?mon's ability, it will leave the player's team; however, you will have a Partner Pok?mon that will always stay by your side. As you progress through Missions and Quests, your Capture Styler becomes more powerful, giving your Styler more Energy and eventually advancing you to the level of Top Ranger.

Characters
Harness the power of hundreds of different Pok?mon. In addition, players can choose to be a boy or girl Pok?mon Ranger.

Key Game Features

  • Pok?mon Ranger is a unique action-adventure series that features a fun, different way to capture Pok?mon with the Nintendo DS stylus, which controls an item called the Capture Styler in the game. Players circle the Pok?mon they want to catch by drawing circles around them on the touch screen. When you complete certain Quests, the Ranger Union awards you with power-ups, which add new upgrades and functions to your Capture Styler, allowing you to advance as you work to eventually become a Top Ranger (the most revered Ranger of all).
  • Now you can partner with a variety of different Pok?mon of each type to complete Missions-giving you many options on how to approach different challenges. Every Pok?mon is different, and capturing a Pok?mon allows you to use its abilities to overcome various obstacles and challenges you will face along the way. The job of a Pok?mon Ranger is never done: your duties will include fighting wildfires, rescuing people or even delivering an important package.
  • Your journey to become a Top Ranger takes you to the new region of Almia. This game has a larger world, more Missions, more adventure and more to do than the previous Pok?mon Ranger games. It has a storyline full of adventure and the ability to travel to and explore many exciting new areas in Almia, including oceans, forests, deserts and more with the help of your Partner Pok?mon.
  • This is the first game in the Pok?mon Ranger series to feature Pok?mon from Pok?mon Diamond and Pok?mon Pearl.
Special Powers, Weapons, Moves & Features
Use the Capture Styler to capture wild Pok?mon. Once they are captured, wild Pok?mon will follow the player around until their powers are used (either in a Pok? Assist or a Field Move).

  • A Pok? Assist is when the player uses an already captured Pok?mon to help capture another wild Pok?mon.
  • A Field Move is when the player uses a captured Pok?mon's power to clear an obstacle that blocks his way or perform any another helpful function with it.
