Pokemon DS Voicechat - details inside
Kiddy-crack wondertoy trading game introduces VOIP
17 Jul 2006
SPOnG told you all about the forthcoming Pokemon DS titles, Pokemon Pearl and Pokemon Diamond, earlier last month and we've just heard a little bit more about how the WiFi battles and trades will work in our favourite Nintendo kiddy-crack trading and battling franchise.
Website 'The Pika Club' reports that you'll be able to save 32 friend codes into your Friends List, which is to be kept inside your "Friend Notebook." After this you then both head to the Pokemon Centre's basement where you can start trading or battling via the WiFi booth.
What is extremely cool is the fact that you will be able to chat to your friends as you play, via either text chat or VOIP voice chat.
Watch this space in a few months time for the sure-to-be appearing misguided tabloid sensationalist headlines about 'Pokemon Paedophile threat' (you know the nonsensical type of thing we mean, like this!)
More importantly, watch this space for all the latest on Pokemon Pearl and Pokemon Diamond.

I liked Blue too, the only one I played through to completion. I'm not sure I could be bothered now though, it's just too much turn-based stuff and the double battles can last 10 minutes, sometimes more with all the items being used, etc...
I wish they'd make it an action RPG with a similar story. I'd be more than up for that...
