If you need a good Pokémon adventure to fill in the time away from Pokémon Black and Pokémon White, this fits the bill nicely.
This Pokémon Ranger follows the path of previous iterations, improving some details and adding up elements which enhance player experience.

A great game with tons of content, beautiful music and a pretty interesting story. I remember playing it in 2012 and it was CRAZY! It was a completely different experience compared to the original games and it‘s definitely more than a spinoff. I‘m playing it the second time right now and it is sooo refreshing. You should give it a try! Very lovely game, especially the whole Pichu lore.

Another Pokémon game and probably a new commercial success, with an interesting storyline, but limited by an undeveloped gameplay.
Overall, Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs is an enjoyable game in its own right, but feels like a step down from Shadows of Almia.
If you're a child or are buying for your kid, they should enjoy the experience (though they will be expected to do a lot of reading). However, if you're an older Pokémon fan such as myself, don't expect an evolved gameplay format from what was seen in the original two Ranger games.
A decent Pokemon game with cute graphics, but way too easy and with sluggish controls.
A simplified version of the usual Pokemon games, though it is so simplistic that it quickly gets boring. There's not enough variety, and while it's certainly charming, it's hard not to see Guardian Signs as anything else but an introduction to the Pokemon universe for those who have yet to play any other game in the series.
One of the best DS games. Good music, fun puzzles and gameplay, and a compelling story. The multiplayer is great, and the best part is other than one mission, every multiplayer mission can be played single player too. Although the game is a bit short and somewhat repetitive, that was never a big issue. Especially since there is quite a bit of post game in the form of extra quests, catching them all (which is actually conceivable to achieve unlike the main series Pokemon games), the aforementioned multiplayer, and getting an S rank on every Pokemon capture. Overall, this game is one of the best DS games I have ever played and has a good story, fun gameplay, decent graphics, good music, and doesn't get old even after plays through it three times.

More of the same from the Pokémon Ranger series, but thankfully there's a lot less faffing around at the beginning so you can get stuck into the meat of the game pretty quickly. Still a little unsophisticated by RPG standards but reasonably good fun.
