Speaking to SPOnG this week, father of Pokémon - Tsunekazu Ishihara - gave us the low-down on Pokémon Battle Revolution. We've decided to tease you with some selected highlights (well, one selected highlight in fact) before you move on to the main event.

"To put it simply, if you have a DS with either Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl inserted in it, and you are playing with your Pokémon and you have a copy of the Wii’s Battle Revolution, you will be able to use your Pokémon in the Wii version to fight against other Pokémon. In effect your DS becomes like the controller for the Wii."
