Gameplay
Capture wild Pokémon and create a team to clear obstacles and solve puzzles encountered along the way. After players use a Pokémon's ability, it will leave the player's team; however, you will have a Partner Pokémon 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 Pokémon. In addition, players can choose to be a boy or girl Pokémon Ranger.

Key Game Features

  • Pokémon Ranger is a unique action-adventure series that features a fun, different way to capture Pokémon with the Nintendo DS stylus, which controls an item called the Capture Styler in the game. Players circle the Pokémon 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 Pokémon of each type to complete Missions-giving you many options on how to approach different challenges. Every Pokémon is different, and capturing a Pokémon allows you to use its abilities to overcome various obstacles and challenges you will face along the way. The job of a Pokémon 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 Pokémon 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 Pokémon.
  • This is the first game in the Pokémon Ranger series to feature Pokémon from Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl.
Special Powers, Weapons, Moves & Features
Use the Capture Styler to capture wild Pokémon. Once they are captured, wild Pokémon will follow the player around until their powers are used (either in a Poké Assist or a Field Move).

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

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - one of my fav ds games EVER!
I played the original pokemon ranger and was very happy when pokemon ranger shadows of almia came out. I love the pokemon ranger games and prefer it compared to the other pokemon games. In the game pokenom ranger shadows of almia you play a pokemon ranger, some one who protects all pokemon from harm. The game uses a capture stylus that is used to capture pokemon and gives a very interactive feeling, unlike in other pokemon games where u just watch pokemon battle. The capture stylus is used by making ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fun but tricky
Hubby bought me this game with my ds so it was one of the only games I had to play. I have since beaten most of the game and find it interesting but really tricky.
You have to be super careful with your stylus to make sure your circles work properly. And it's frustrating not to know what pokemon have useful abilities and which don't. And I refuse to spend [...]or more on a massive book to go with the game.
I did find that gamefaqs had the walk through which helped immensely.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best game in the world
This game is amazingly sweet.I love it when I get new partner pokemon.But I get stuck capturing Toxicroak and Rampardoes,but its more challenging when you capture the legondery pokemon at the end of the game.But still its the best game ever!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Surprisingly addictive
*Just a side comment, I havent ever played the first Pokemon Ranger game, so this review is going to be strictly about my feelings of Shadows of Almia*

Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia was one of the first games I bought for my DS. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised by it.

First off I'd like to say that I originally got into Pokemon when it first came out about 10 years ago. The show was awesome and the Pokemon Red and Blue versions were so innovative and fun to play. ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very Fun
Compared to basically most of all the other pokemon games, this is definitely something out of the routine. And I really like that.
With the missions and quests that you get, it's just sort of something new every time~ and it's great being able to see the pokemon before you have to battle it, that way you can avoid them (the slower ones anyway) and not have to spend time fighting or running away when you don't want to do that in the first place.

I just really enjoy this game, but I warn! ... Read More
