1 It is good
The book is really informative and everything but it doesn't have some things the blue and other ones had. Such as the animal type (cat or mouse etc.) I mean some of the new ones are pretty crazy looking. It shows you all the moves your dudes will learn and it has charts to show you the different moves there are and what they do and where you can find them.
Over all it is a good pokedex
2 Buy "Pokemon Master Pokedex" instead
If you are looking for a complete, easy-to-follow, well-organized Pokedex, buy "Pokemon Master Pokedex: Prima's Official Strategy Guide" instead. Prima's "Pokemon Master Pokedex" (which covers ALL Pokemon) and the "Pokemon Gold & Silver" Strategy Guide are much more complete and user-friendly than this "Gold & Silver" Pokedex (limited to just the new Pokemon), which, like Prima's "Pokemon Yellow" Strategy Guide, is visually eye-catching, but less complete and harder to follow than the other titles mentioned above. (Another reviewer writes that there is no map. Remember: this is a Pokedex, not a Strategy Guide that will take you step-by-step through the game.)
3 A must-have for Pokemon fans!
My six year old son, Lukas, and four year old daughter, Josie, LOVE this book. They spend hours leafing through this book honing their expertise of Pokemon. They are not really into the Gameboy so much; they prefer looking at the pictures and reading up on the characters. Lukas, Josie and I go through the book and play many creative games. We pick our favorite Pokemon on each page; we take a tape measure and figure out the Pokemons heights; we list all the Pokemons that are our height, ETC.! It has also expanded my children's vocabulary to include such words as "psychic", "hypnotize", "gust", "leer" and many more!
4 Not everything I wanted
It had the new pokemon but it did cover all of the new moves. Also it doesn't show how to get around. It shows a map of the world but not very well. Not great insturtions
5 It's The Best!!!
I think this strategy guide is the best guide Prima's ever made before.I like it because it's the only guide with the pokemon 152-250 that's got the level it learns new attacks,where to catch them,and tells the evolution of the pokemon at what level and what item it needs to be traded with.Again,I think it's the best!!!
