Pokemon Farm; What exactly is it?

Well, I ran into an announcement for this little Wii tidbit today:

Pokemon Farm

You can transfer Diamond and Pearl Pokemon onto it, and fool around with cute, low-res versions of your pokemon and Miis in a farm/ranch setting...

I'm curious. however, if this is the Wii's solution to Pokemon Box, if anyone remembers that.
I don't know how many of you guys have D/P or the Wii yet ( I only just managed to find ONE WII at a Gamestop nearby) but I'm really interested.

I've been wanting to start a new D/P game and raise another team with babies I've hatched, but I'd want to store a lot of my old ones, too. So a mass Pokemon storage "middleman" would be appreciated right about now.

If anyone else finds more info post it! :)

YES. :D A much better version of Pokemon Box, IMO, and very useful now with 486 of the lil' buggers. And oh god that is so cute. <3

Heh, I was gonna say... It IS cute, but I doubt it would attract very many if it didn't have an underlying purpose.

I can't wait for a release date on that... I think maybe I'll hatch some babies that I'll wanna use starting a new game. :3

On an almost unrelated note... The Rapidash... *dies laughing* It's adorable. X3

Hmm... I'm interested... what exactly was pokemon box for? And this is in 3D, so is it better? What exactly is the point of the game?

*Pokemon Box* wasn't a Pokemon game at all, but a storage device for Ruby/Sapphire, etc. I never got it, but apparently you can store a crap-load of Pokemon on it. It rewards storage with Pokemon eggs, which hatch into Pokemon with unusual moves.

If Pokemon Farm follows along the same lines, I guess it has a few quirks to make it slightly more entertaining, at least for a few days. :P From screenshots available, you can use Miis from the Wii to interact with the Pokemon stored in a little corral, take pictures and whatnot.

It's not really a game, or so I hear. It's a little something called "Wii Ware", kind of like the virtual console games you can buy with the points. By this logic, one could hope it'd be pretty inexpensive to get, but you never know.

I could be totally wrong, like usual though. ^^

^^ No prob. I'd barely heard of it too - I don't think it was publicized much because it was really just kind of an add-on, and Pokemon's target audience usually doesn't need that kind of space.

Now a few of the people I've known over the years who breed for perfect natures, IVs and shinies... well, it's more of an asset to them.

Also, I think it might have been a special bundle with pre-orders of Colliseum, but don't take my word on that.

I breed stuff for natures and then EV train the pokemon... but I dun do it for IVs. And anyway, when I get a pokemon I dun need, I usually release it, instead of having a box full of a poke like cubone... unless mai junkemon box is getting empty. I need junkemon to trade to people over wi-fi when they give me free stuff. xD

Ok, so it's definitely official. :D Pokemon Farm is, at heart, a storage device! One you can have cute fun with, at that.

I just recently used the Wii Shop thing for the first time this week since I got the Wifi adapter, so I think it'll appear in the store when it comes out, buyable with Wii points.

Save up, Wii owners. ;)

Vacillating Dreamer, most people have no idea what that means.
Oh wow! This sounds really neat! I've been wanting to start a new game, so getting this would be perfect to store all those Pokemon. They definately thought of an interesting and original way to store Pokemon. Plus, all of the Pokemon are so cute!

Here's how you pronounce my name, if you cared at all: Nax-ell-GEE, which is NOT like the "gee" in "geez", but instead it rhymes with "key". The rest you should know.

Here's some Moonlight Chronicles RP stuff:
