The DS linkup feature was demoed at 2006 Nintendo World Tour for the first time. As well as allowing Pokémon from a Pokémon Diamond or Pearl cartridge to be used in-game, it replaces the on-screen battle menu, normally used in conjunction with the Wii Remote. The battle menu is displayed on the DS touchscreen instead, and is navigated with the stylus. Up to eight players can play in a 1 on 1 tournament, much like the [[Battle Frontier]]'s Battle Dome in [[Pokémon Emerald]].

==Reception==

It also added that if the player didn't have Pokémon Diamond or Pearl for the DS, there wasn't as much to do.  [[wp:Nintendo Power|Nintendo Power]] gave this game a 6.5 out of 10.
Currently the gave has an average of 59% of 10 reviews on [[wp:Game Rankings|Game Rankings]].
