4.0 out of 5 stars Gotta catch 'em all (again), 3 Aug 2007

This is another weighty tome; weighing in at just a shade under 300 A4 pages. I play the Pokemon RPGs purely to beat the 8 gym leaders and win the Pokemon league. So all I'm interested in is the walkthrough which is more than adequately covered. You have either a 3 page, 95 point quick walkthrough, or a 172 page highly detailed walkthrough that not only tells you what to do but introduces all the pokemon extras. Impossible to go wrong.

For those of you wanting to delve deeper into the Pokmon world, everything else is covered. Contests, wireless play, underground info, trading, TMs, HMs, berries, etc. All this information is presented in a very clear manner and would be accessible to young children.

The only thing missing is a detailed Pokedex listing all the Pokemon, their evolutions and learned moves, and where to find them. This will be avaiable next month (Sep 2007) in the companion volume: Pokedex Vol 2.

I would have given this guide 5 stars, but for the fact they've split all the info over 2 volumes. It could have been squeezed into 1 volume (the Emerald guide being a great example).

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book all round, 18 Jul 2008
A Kid's Review
This is a really good book to tell you where all 150 Pokemon are in the Sinho Region. It also tells you where to find items as well as giving advice. Suggest getting the book if your staring the game for the first time,but still a good way to round up all the Pokemon. It also tells you how to beat the Pokemon league.I'd really say GET THIS BOOK.

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointing, 31 Aug 2007
By Amy Pike "racerdee" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When I first looked at the strategy guide, I thought it looked like just what I wanted but when I came to play the game it just seemed to be set out in the most haphazard way.
I wanted clear maps with details about where pokemon/items/key characters could be found. I got pictures of pokemon which could be floating about somewhere on the page if they could caught with a key which I didn' understand. I often missed the pictures or had to look to find them in between all the bright colours and often random text boxes. The items were labelled on the map, but not what the items. There was a key below the map saying which items could be found in the area but say if I wanted to find a shiny stone I'd have to guess which pokeball on the map contained it. As for key characters, forget it.
Important pages, like how to improve your pokemon's happiness was just inserted randomly, and was not easy to find again when it was needed. I didn't think the descriptions of locations on these pages was very helpful.
Oh and I was also annoyed that the guide stopped as soon as you defeated the elite four. I appreciate that that is pretty much the end of the shinnoh game but at least a little about the large portion of the map that can now be accessed would be nice.
however, maybe I'm being unfair and it does have the things I want from it (allbeit somewhere random) in it somewhere but I've become so frustrated with being unable to find what I want at a glance and resorting to the internet for tips, that I sorely regret buying it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Yeh, worth it.
Ok, this guide will not tell you how to find all the secrets or all the legendaries. However it does complete the 150ish pokedex nicely and round off the story mode. Read more
