1.0 out of 5 stars Appalling! Avoid at all costs, 3 Nov 2004
By A conned person (Halifax, W.Yorks United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Upon buying this item I thought "yey" I can finally find out what to do with the Unowns (and what they all look like), catch Mew and find out where Deoxys is.

Unfortunatley the guide lacks info on all of the above including 4 of the 7 islands. I realise I'm essentially repeating a previous review, but the truth is I feel so let down by this....this....so called...guide, that nobody else in the world should be duped into buying it!

But if you like incomplete guides, false advertising and information so obvious a two year old could've bettered it, then this could be for you! Or not!

You choose, but it's your funeral (or nigglingly incomplete game)

1.0 out of 5 stars A Huge Disappointment From Prima, 21 Jan 2005
It's a repeat of what others have said, but this guide was a massive disappointment. It fails to deliver what it says on the back of the book - i.e. breeding guides (not only that, it doesn't even tell you WHERE you can breed! Utterly useless and a silly omission!) and Ruby/Sapphire link ups (there's no mention of anything R/S related). There are serious errors in the book, features are missing, maps are missing, and overall it doesn't even cover half of what's in the game. The Pokedex is also extremely weak, also containing errors, but generally offering somewhat limited information.

Usually Prima's Pokemon guides are excellent. But this is just not worth your time at all. If there's no alternative, I'm afraid you'll need to make do with online FAQs on the game. A real shame, but just don't buy this item!

3.0 out of 5 stars A useful walkthrough lacking in additional information, 23 Sep 2004
By Cacnea (Kent, UK) - See all my reviews
I bought the FR/LG Prima guide recently when I got my hands on an import copy of Leaf Green. It has the necessary information for a basic walkthrough, and a Pokedex detailing the moves learned as each Pokemon grows through the levels.

To be honest, I was disappointed in the additional information (or lack thereof). Whereas the Ruby/Sapphire guide had so much information that it appeared cluttered, the FR/LG guide has overcompensated and lacks sufficient detail. There are only TM, HM and Berry lists - no move lists, no item or key item lists with locations, and I've already spotted omissions in the walkthrough. The game itself has a reference guide accessible via the GBA's shoulder buttons which is useful for newcomers to Pokemon, but this still doesn't give the information omitted from the new Prima official guide.

An adequate guide, but not quality like the Sapphire/Ruby effort.
