More save options and a wider selection of Pokémon
I recently completed Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness and it was amazing :D
The major improvement compared to Colosseum in my opinion is the ability to save much more frequently, which was quite a problem for me in Colosseum.
There are even more Pokémon now and the story appeals to me more. Because once again, you have to purify shadow Pokémon and try to stop the shadow army of the little bald guy. In some parts of the game, you also come across small references to the previous installment, which is always quite amusing.
A really cool game 9/10 :D

Enjoy catching 83 Shadow Pokémon and trading for GBA games
Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness is truly a fun game. I had a lot of fun, especially with the 83 Shadow Pokémon you can catch. Now I have transferred all those Pokémon to Pokémon Pearl, as you can trade them to the GBA Pokémon games.
The story is well thought out, and the Orre Colosseum is a real challenge! Score: 96

Beautiful Pokémon attacks and favorites like Flygon and Tyranitar
I think Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness is a great game because the Pokemon perform beautiful attacks. I like almost all Pokemon, especially Flygon, Claydol, and Tyranitar!! And that little Shadow Togepi you get at level 25. One thing is a bit of a shame, and that is that the game is in English! :(

A must-have Pokemon game!
"Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness" is an RPG from the Pokémon series that introduces a darker tone and storyline compared to the traditional Pokémon games.

The graphical presentation of "Pokémon XD" on the GameCube is solid. The Pokémon models are detailed, and the battle animations are well executed. The environments are diverse, ranging from urban areas to mysterious locations, adding variety to the visual presentation.
Read more...

In contrast to typical Pokémon stories, "Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness" has a more mature and dark undertone. Set in the Orre region, players take on the role of a hero trying to save Pokémon corrupted by an evil organization called Cipher. The story offers more depth and intrigue than previous Pokémon games.

A unique aspect of "XD" is capturing and purifying Shadow Pokémon influenced by dark forces. Players must track down these Pokémon, capture them, and then attempt to purify their hearts. This adds an interesting twist to the usual Pokémon-catching mechanic.

The battle system is based on the turn-based combat characteristic of Pokémon games. It retains the depth of types, strategies, and team building. However, the "Shadow Rush" system for Shadow Pokémon adds extra tension to battles.

While the graphics are generally good, there are moments when the animations and transitions may seem somewhat simplistic compared to other GameCube titles. Nevertheless, the Pokémon models themselves are well represented.

The music and sound effects complement the game's atmosphere well. The soundtrack features some memorable tunes, and the sounds of the Pokémon and attacks are recognizable and fitting.

The game offers a reasonable playtime, with plenty of missions and activities to complete. In addition to the main story, there are optional side missions and Pokémon collecting that enhance replay value. However, it is important to note that some players may find the dark atmosphere and story less suitable for the typical Pokémon experience.

"Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness" provides a unique twist on the traditional Pokémon formula by presenting a darker story and introducing new gameplay elements. While it may not be for everyone due to the departure from the usual light-hearted tone, it is an intriguing title for those seeking a different perspective on the Pokémon world on the Nintendo GameCube.

Unique storyline and beautiful effects in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness
I absolutely adore Pokemon, it's one of my favorite things on this planet! Sometimes, I would play Pokemon games on my friends' GameBoy and I really wanted to have those games for myself, but I didn't own a GameBoy. When I heard that Pokemon XD was hitting the stores, I immediately wanted to go and buy it. And when I finally tried it out... I couldn't put it down! The effects are stunning, and the storyline is truly unique. It's quite different from the GameBoy games.

I think Gale of Darkness is a great game because it's different from others; here, not everything goes smoothly, and things are actually quite challenging. That's why it's not easy and a bit more enjoyable! I was really happy when I found this game =D Rating: 8/10

Keep discovering new things and Lugia is awesome
Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness is an awesome game. It's fun to play. You keep discovering new things and that Lugia is awesome. My Jolteon pwns everyone, too bad it has low atk and def, otherwise it would be even better than it already is. It's just awesome!

Improvement compared to Colosseum, but purifying shadow Pokémon remains boring
Way and way better than Colosseum but it still sucks. I find purifying shadow Pokémon really dull and annoying (why can't I purify my Lugia?!). When will there finally be a Pokemon RPG on the GameCube or Wii, everyone is asking for it but they keep coming out with those boring games like Colosseum. Everyone thinks they're bad but still buys them because they have no choice, as there are simply no fun Pokemon games anymore. Ruby and Sapphire were fun but where are the good parts on the consoles?

Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness brings Pokemon to life in 3D with a compelling storyline
Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness is a game-changer for GBA Pokémon games. I mean, it's already amazing to see Pokémon in 3D! And there's a strong storyline to boot. It's also cool that there are Shadow Pokémon. It's truly a game for Pokémon fans who enjoyed the classic Pokémon GBA games like Pokémon Ruby, FireRed, Leafgreen, Sapphire, Emerald. In my opinion, it's a great expansion with 3D battles and storyline.

Disappointing Execution of the Shadow Pokemon Concept
Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, I find it somewhat disappointing compared to the Pokemon games on handheld consoles (DS Gameboy).
I might just be a bit too old for Pokemon, but I still believe that this game is not worth 35 euros (sorry). The concept of Shadow Pokemon was good, but the execution fell short.

Challenging and immersive 3D adventure
I think Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness is really awesome. The 3D graphics are beautifully done. It's quite difficult, but that's what makes it fun. They've also taken a lot from Colosseum, which is a bit of a downside. Once you're into the game, you won't be able to put it down hahahahahaha.

Secrets:
How do you purify Shadow Lugia in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness?

You can purify Shadow Lugia in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness by filling all sections of the Purify Chamber with tempo. Then you need to place Shadow Lugia in one of the nine sections. After that, it will become just like a regular shadow Pokémon.

Secrets:
How can you get a booster for your Pokémon in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness?
MarioCube
9 jaar
I'm not talking about F-Zero here. But in this game, you can also get a 'booster' in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness. If you let 2 Pokémons of the same type battle each other at the same time, your Pokémon will receive an attack boost. Your Pokémon becomes stronger without you even realizing it!

Secrets:
How can I purify Lugia in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness?
MarioCube
9 jaar
To purify Lugia, you need to have all purify chambers running at full speed. The easiest way is to catch 36 Hoppips, which you often encounter at the Oasis Pokéspot in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness. They usually get caught with just 1 Pokéball (if you use a high-level Pokémon). This is handy because Hoppips are [Grass/Flying] types and [Flying] types are super effective against [Grass] types. So, if you put 4 of them in each chamber, it will always be at full speed.

Secrets:
Why does the professor's assistant love the failed inventions in the lab?
MarioCube
9 jaar
When you enter the professor's lab in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness (the second place you visit), you can watch a TV. The professor's assistant will tell you why he thinks the inventions are great, even though they only cause trouble!

Mariopartykin ng

If you encounter and catch Zangoose in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, it might be useful to keep it that way for as long as possible, because Shadow Zangoose is very strong for the point you're at in the game.
