There are now 493 Pokemon. I'm not sure why they keep going with the odd numbers.
And has anyone seen the new videos of Battle Revolution on the Wii? I was pretty excited when the first showed the trailer, but unfortuantely that first one seemed to be completely CG. The game itself looks no better than Colosseum and XD did on the Gamecube and they were sub-par even for the Gamecube, the attack animations are still boring and some of them just bizarre. What's up with them quickly facing different directions when they use agility? It looks very amateurish, I've seen Flash animations with more effort put into them. And also, the battles themselves still seem very slow and disjointed - you see the Pokemon get hit, stagger backwards, get up again, and THEN they faint.
I don't mean to be a graphics whore, but I thought the whole point of these games were to make the battles look really impressive and fun to watch, but as it is they seem lower quality than what you get with the 2D games on the DS.
