>>55463963Rather than battling, you were a ranger who's job was to help protect pokemon and preserve peace and nature. You would temporarily cooperate with wild pokemon to do things like help with people's day to day problems, restore damage to natural environments, fight crime, etc. In order to get the wild Pokemon to help you, you had to gain their trust by capturing them with a capture styler, which involved drawing loops around them. You would also use this to calm down rampaging Pokémon and help free them from the villain's control. The Pokémon would all be released after you left a certain area, so you constantly had to find new mons to help you with the task at hand. The games were just meant to shill the DS touch screen, but they were really good. I loved playing the role of someone who helps Pokémon instead of fighting them.
