Amazon.com :
Pokémon Sapphire's updated graphics with weather effects, amazing sound, more than 200 Pokémon with over 100 new species--as well as its faithful adherence to the existing series of Pokémon games--makes for a welcome evolution in the series.

First, the game has a lot in common with Pokémon games Silver, Gold, and Crystal. For example, players can choose to be a boy or a girl trainer, an internal clock sets events at certain times, and the game's handy-dandy Pokédex helps players keep track of the many stats. You're main goal is still to beat all the Gym Trainers and become the Pokémon Master. If you've played the old games, you will be right at home. But not all is the same.

The most obvious change is in the battles themselves. Now that two Pokémon can fight on your side at the same time, you can tag-team them against an enemy by taking advantage of the strengths of your Pokémons while covering their weaknesses. For example, you can now have a water Pokémon watch your fire Pokémon's back. You can also attack more than one Pokémon at a time.

A whole new element to the game focuses on how berries are used in battle. And if you collect enough berries, you can take them to a Berry Blender and make a PokéBlock, which is a little super-charged candy that raises your Pokémon's "Condition" attributes. You can then groom your Pokémon for regional contests and compete for ribbons like "Best of Show," which will unlock additional contests. There's even strategy in how to best use your berries: pick too many and the berry tree will disappear; plant berries, though, and a tree will grow. You can also build a Secret Base in special areas of the game, which you can decorate just like you can your room.

And let us not forget that Pokémon Sapphire has a kickin' multiplayer system, too. You can trade Pokémon, and link up to four players for incredible battles. The only downside is that you can't link up with the old Game Boy Color games. --Bryan Karsh

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Another Pokemon Review by me..
Pokemon Sapphire another Pokemon game to the Pokemon franchise. This game and its counter part Ruby are nearly identical. You start off as a wet behind the ears kid who wants to become the Pokemon Champion. You play the game through with third generation Pokemon with some second and first gen as well.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Probably the hardest of the series, but a great compliment to diamond/pearl
I've been playing pokemon since the very first games came out over 10 years ago. The pokemon series has gone through some major changes since then, but they still deliver solid RPG's that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. I'd have to say Ruby/Sapphire are the most challenging of the series, but it's still a fun game with a lot of things to do. you could spend months trying to find all the secrets in the game and still not find them all. And if you're obsessed with capturing Legendary pokemon like I am, this is an invaluable part of your pokemon library (I bought this so that i could capture legendaries to transfer to pokemon diamond). It's slightly dated now and lacks some of the features and fluff of the new games, but it's still very fun and worth buying.

I enjoy this product very much and that I would recommend buying from this seller for more fun games like this one.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Pokemon Sapphire
Sapphire is fun. I like Diamond and Pearl though as they have better trading in their games.
