The first game I bought. As a remake of a previous title, it introduced new concepts such as the Pokethalon (Pokemon Sports) and having your partner Pokemon follow you around in-game. It also provided a upgrade in graphics, and included two regions to explore. I have many fond memories of the locations within this game, namely the Ruins of Alph, the mysterious and inaccessable Sinjoh Ruins, the Ice Path, Whirl Islands, and Cinnabar Island.


The Ruins of Alph is a special location where you can complete puzzles and catch Pokemon called Unown. The mysterious air of these ruins captured your imagination. After completing sliding puzzles featuring fossil pokemon, you are able to see and read messages spelled out in Unown symbols.


The Sinjoh Ruins are typically inaccessable to players, but were theorectically acessable through the Ruins of Alph. The temple and interior have a serene look.


The Pokethalon was a Olympics-like minigame that you could particpate in with 3 Pokemon of your choosing. There were different types of competitions you could participate in, and you were able to pick pokemon that had strengths in the competition of your choice. I spent hours in this minigame because it made me happy to watch my pokemon participate in something so fun looking.



Pokemon black came out in DATE HERE. I was a bit older when this game came out, so I was able to participate in the pokemon dream world, which was one of my favourite places in this game. I enjoyed the ability to see changes in the seasons and the little details put in this game. This game introduced a more intense story and made me really invested in the original characters. My favorite locations in this game were the aforementioned Dream World, White City (acessable only through pokemon white version), the Dreamyard, and Liberty garden.


The Dream world was not inside of the actual game, but rather a browser game connected to pokemon black and pokemon white. You were able to let your pokemon fall asleep and dream, and explore the dream world together.


The Dream Yard is one of the only places you can encounter Munna and Musharna, one of my favourite Pokemon. This area brings a sense of calm and mystery.


Liberty Garden is an event exclusive location in Pokemon Black and Pokemon White. You're able to encounter Victini here. It is a pretty and elegant location, and I enjoyed being able to participate in fun events such as these.


Pokemon White 2 was a sequel to Pokemon White. However, I purchased White 2 instead of Black 2 because I preferred Reshiram, the featured legendary for this game. These games shared similar locations, but added new ones, and introduced another intense story. My favorite places introduced in the sequal include the Strange House and the Marine Tube.


The Strange House is a mysterious location where you can encounter the ghost of a girl who suffered from a dark, long nightmare. She speaks about the Lunar Wing, saying it can no longer help her, but offering it to the player instead. This item allows you to encounter Cresselia, a Legendary Pokemon that can dispel nightmares.


Pokepark 2: Wonders Beyond is a sequal to Pokepark Wii: Pikachu's adventure. This game features generation 5 pokemon, and has all new areas to explore. Attractions are less of a focus in this game. You are also able to play as up to 4 pokemon in this game, and use their powers to solve specific puzzles. You can play as Piakchu, Oshawott, Snivy, or Tepig, each with their own special moves.


The Wish Park is a strange dimension that attracts pokemon from the Pokepark. Inside, you'll find attractions, each in one of 4 zones, to participate in and bosses to beat. I liked the eerie but fun atmosphere of the Wish Park.
