I got this game today and it is totally awesome! I have a couple of pokemon and they are so cool! The effects are 3D and work well with the animation. I LOVE this game!
I don't know what everyone here sees in this franchise still.

I guess many people enjoy these battles over and over again, and I must admit that for a while, I was hooked on leveling up my Pokemon. But now that my team is just under level 30, I got really bored. The only thing truly exciting in this game is the gym battles.
Positives:
*Gym battles are fun
*Very colorful graphics, the town's 2D/3D effect was very nice and the Pokemon sprites are good as they were in Ruby/Sapphire and Leaf Green/Fire Red
*Cute Pokemon (I was really happy about this - many of Ruby's/Sapphire's Pokemon looked a bit weird and deformed, but they changed that for Pearl/Diamond)
Negatives
*Battles are fun in the beginning, but tedious after about 20 hours of playing this game
*Even though there are new places and towns, it still feels like the same formulaic stuff that you've been seeing since Blue/Red versions
This game is definitely overrated on this site. But at least I got my say in it!
3.75 stars.

I have been a Fan of the Pint-sized RPG since its beginning in the late 90's on Gameboy. This games really sets the tone for an involved an enjoyable playing experience. With over 100 new pokemon, smooth animation, and several new TM's and HM's it is a great game that any pokemon fan, adult or child, will want in their collecton.
Great game, my son loves it, great price

The game is worth every penny. This game was a gift for my son, and he loves it. He plays it a lot. The game takes advantage of the WiFi feature so you can connect to other players, and it also allows the player to use the Pokemon which the player unlocked in the Pokemon game for the Wii. Now original features like that is what makes Nintendo the best gaming system.
Great game for the pokemon fan

My teenager & I are both Pokeholics. We have done our best in this newest version to "catch them all" and thank heavens we have all the poke games that came before with the exception of one (Pokemon Rangers). This game has been very flexible and fun to play. It really can be fun for all ages. My only wish is that there would be more special events by Nintendo/Pokemon in order to catch pokemon like Manaphy, since a lot of people can't make it to New York City or missed the 3 hour event they sponsored at a toy store (and those are the only other ways other than completing Pokemon Ranger that you will be able to get Manaphy).
This game provides many hours of entertainment for those who enjoy playing and the added GTS, and underground playtime are unique great fun touches as well.
Very, very, good game, I'd even say awsome

Pokemon Pearl is the newest pokemon game in the long running series that has been on every nintendo handheld since the game boy.In Pokemon you start off as a boy or girl and your job is to fill your pokedex(a devise that records data on the pokemon you see and catch)for professor rowen and become the pokemon league champion.Of course while stopping the evil team galactic form taking over the world.
Adding all the great features form the past games like Day/Night Time,Double battles,National Pokedex,Pokemon Contests,and the Battle Tower.
Plus adding some new ones like the underground where you can dig up fossils,stones,orbs and other useful idems to help you on your adventure,100 some new pokemon,the Gobel Trade Center where over wi-fi connection you can trade pokemon with pokemon fans all over the world,plus online battles over wi-fi and use of the DS touch screen and michphone.
There is so much to do in Pokemon Pearl that you will be playing for hours and hours after you beat the main part of the game.This is a must for pokemon fans.
