==Gameplay== | |||
Much like {{pkmn|Colosseum}}, Pokémon XD features a similar 3D gameplay to the [[core series]] of Pokémon games. Mechanics in [[Pokémon battle]]s are directly adapted. Also, similar to its predecessor, Pokémon XD features mostly [[Double Battle]]s instead of Single Battles. Unlike in Colosseum however, [[wild Pokémon]] can be found, albeit only in specific places called [[Poké Spot]]s. | |||
===Changes from Pokémon Colosseum=== | |||
Some changes have been made to the region and gameplay from Pokémon Colosseum: | |||
*The {{player|main character}}, Wes, is replaced by Michael. Michael's starter Pokemon is a L10 Eevee instead of a L25 Espeon and L26 Umbreon. | |||
*Gameplay is less challenging until the post-game in Story Mode. | |||
*PCs now have 8 Boxes, and access to the Purify Chamber. The Save function has been removed from PCs, replaced with a Save option in the menu. | |||
*Hyper Mode is renamed Reverse Mode. | |||
*Shadow Pokémon can't be put in the Day Care. | |||
*Shadow Pokémon now learn exclusive Moves via purification. | |||
*Shadow Rush's power has dropped to 50 and no longer causes recoil damage. | |||
*Multiple Shadow moves have been added alongside Shadow Rush. | |||
*Shadow Moves are now super effective against non-Shadow Pokemon but not very effective against Shadow Pokémon. | |||
*There is now a '+' next to an opponent's Shadow Pokemon's level. | |||
*Battle Mode has been dropped, though the Orre Colosseum has been incorporated into the post-game Story Mode. | |||
*Calling a non-Shadow Pokemon raises its accuracy if it's not asleep. | |||
*The Orre Region map got a makeover, and is now viewed from a 3D rather than a top-down look. | |||
*Pyrite Cave, The Under and Phenac Stadium are inaccessible. | |||
*Pyrite Building has been turned into ONBS. | |||
*A Purify Chamber has been added. | |||
*Wild Pokemon, in-game trades, a Move Relearner, Battle Bingo and Battle Sims have been added. | |||
*Strategy Memo is automatically updated. | |||
*In Mt. Battle, the player is no longer asked if the player wants to advance to the next zone. | |||
*Areas 1-3 of Mt. Battle are available from the start. | |||
*Mt. Battle trainer levels now go up to Level 70 and trainers now use Legendary Pokémon. | |||
*TMs 07 (Hail), 46 (Thief) and 37 (Sandstorm) are gone. | |||
*The books in the basement of the Phenac Pokémon Center are now described as a Hoenn/Kanto region research. | |||
*Time Flutes are gone. | |||
*Poké Balls can now be bought at most Poké Marts. | |||
*There are now stricter conditions for trading with the GBA games. | |||
