Pokemon Link! DS

Featuring over 380 characters from the Game Boy Advance Pok'mon video game series Pok'mon Link challenges players to line up four of their favourite Pok'mon icons in a row as they drop onto the game screen. Using the Nintendo DS's stylus and touch screen players must move the icons horizontally or vertically to join up four of the same type. Once a line is formed Link Chance occurs and the icons are cleared from the screen and collected in the players Link List. By strategically moving Pok'mon into certain formations players can obtain higher scores with a chain reaction where icons falling into cleared spaces create further Links. To help form chains for a short time after a successful link a link of three Pok'mon instead of four will clear followed by a link of two. Further to the sliding puzzle mode an all-new adventure mode brings this exciting and unique new Pok'mon world to life. Fans must guide secret agent Lucy Fleetfoot through this world on a mission to rescue stolen Pok'mon from the evil organisation Phobos. In this epic adventure she will encounter Pok'mon of all shapes and sizes from every previously released game. For a chance to battle against friends players can make use of the Nintendo DS's wireless functionality in Link Battle Mode or join forces with them in Pair Link Mode to challenge the game's high score in a co-op. Pok'mon Link also allows players to compare scores with those of their friends through the games Ranking Stats facility. What's more rare Pok'mon are much more likely to appear in multiplayer modes making this a must for the dedicated collector.
